About

Xypex Megamix II is a high-performance remediation solution for delivering sustainable repairs to existing concrete structures. Xypex Megamix II has been specifically formulated to produce superior bond, low permeability, chemical durability and high strength in concrete repairs and is used for patching and resurfacing of deteriorated concrete. It is enhanced by Xypex’s unique crystalline technology that can assist clients meet project sustainability targets for the remediation of concrete infrastructure. It is a one component, high-build mortar and can be either sprayed or trowel applied. Xypex’s primary and most distinguishing performance feature is its unique ability to generate a permanent, non-soluble crystalline structure which blocks the pores, capillary tracts and micro-cracks within the mortar and permanently seals the repair against the penetration of water from any direction thus reducing corrosion risk to the structure. This durability performance protects both the steel reinforcement and concrete repair from all types of corrosion and as it becomes an integral component within the repair matrix, it remains active for the life of the structure and provides self-healing properties for static micro-cracks up to 0.4mm wide. Xypex Megamix II is manufactured in Australia and is available across Australia and New Zealand.

Sustainability Outcomes

Xypex Megamix II has an EPD which provides a transparent, ISO compliant, third party verified certification of the lifecycle assessment. Through our tailored Xypex solutions, we help clients to be leaders in sustainable design and construction. Xypex Megamix II is Global Green Tag certified to GreenRate Level A which is an ISC approved Type I environmental label with a Sustainability Factor of 1.00. Using Xypex Megamix II for the remediation of deteriorated concrete on your project may assist in achieving points in Rso-7 (v2.1) and Mat-2 (v1.2) credits. Xypex Megamix II can help stakeholders reduce the whole of lifecycle cost and carbon impacts of a deteriorating concrete asset by extending the service life and reducing the ongoing repair and maintenance costs. It therefore may help achieve points under Rso-6 (v2.1) and Mat-1 (v1.2) credits through its reduction of lifecycle environmental impact. Projects can be rewarded for Innovation Challenges through the use of multiple sustainable iSupply products and the use of Xypex Megamix II on your concrete assets may therefore assist in achieving innovation points under Inn-1 (v2.1) and Inn-1 (v1.2) credits accordingly. Using Xypex Megamix II on your project can assist in increasing your asset’s sustainability rating.
