Extending The Life of Road and Rail Bridges
Saint-Gobain Construction Chemicals at Bridges Coventry
12 March | CBS Arena, Coventry | Stand B01
Saint-Gobain Construction Chemicals (SGCC) will be exhibiting at Bridges Conference on Stand B01, taking place on 12 March at CBS Arena, Coventry, an event that brings together bridge owners, engineers and industry specialists to explore how a joined-up approach can support bridge performance, durability and long-term asset life.
As Saint-Gobain Construction Chemicals, the combined expertise of Fosroc, GCP and Chryso enables a broader, more integrated response to the challenges faced across the bridge lifecycle — from concrete production and construction through to protection, repair and long-term maintenance.
Bridge structures demand careful consideration at every stage. Concrete performance, detailing at interfaces, movement accommodation and long-term protection all play a role in determining how an asset performs over time. By bringing together complementary product ranges and specialist technical knowledge, Saint-Gobain Construction Chemicals supports a more holistic approach to bridge delivery and asset management.
SGCC solutions span multiple stages of bridge delivery and maintenance. Structural integrity and durability are addressed through specialist grouting, anchoring, concrete repair and protection technologies, drawing on the Fosroc portfolio. Deck protection and critical detailing are covered through GCP bridge deck waterproofing and movement joint systems, helping to manage water ingress at interfaces and transitions. At the concrete production stage, admixtures and cement additives developed through Chryso admixtures and cement additives enable performance optimisation, the use of complex or recycled aggregates and the production of lower-carbon concrete.
These material solutions are complemented by digital concrete monitoring tools such as Verifi and Maturix, helping producers monitor, control and optimise concrete performance in real time.
Together, this breadth of solutions and expertise demonstrates how Saint-Gobain Construction Chemicals can support bridge structures from construction through to long-term performance — helping owners and engineers extend asset life while meeting evolving performance and sustainability requirements.
