BRANDS WE WORK WITH
flexC belt is applicable to civil engineering, it can be used to strengthen and shore up concrete and steel structures such as beams, columns and webs as found in buildings, bridges and other structures. It can be quickly deployed in emergency situations with adhesives to shore compromised structures or used as a post-tensioning solution with end fastenings for ageing or structure’s experiencing a change of load case.
flexC belt has been deployed as a high-performance component within complex machinery, as a unique solution. Reliably delivering accurate repetition within an high fatigue environment, such as PTO systems in wave energy.
