Protecting Winery Concrete Floors from Corrosion and Costly Repairs

Every year, wineries across Australia spend thousands repairing or replacing concrete floors damaged by the harsh winemaking process. Acids, alkalis, and other corrosive elements attack unprotected concrete, while fuel oils and chlorinated hydrocarbon products—though not always corrosive—must be safely contained to prevent contamination of soil and groundwater. When concrete fails, the costs of repair, replacement, and remediation can be astronomical.

Standard Portland or Brighton Light cement concrete offers little resistance to these challenges. Acids attack the calcium-based binder, leaving only weak, crumbling aggregates behind—hardly suitable for a busy winery environment.
