I
neos Salt is the UK’s largest manufacturer
of vacuum salt based products, which are all
produced at their dedicated plant in Runcorn,
Cheshire. These salt products include domestic
and catering food salts, water softening salts, animal feed
salts, de-icing salts, and salts for use in many other different
industrial and chemical processes.
The plant engineers were building a new reinforced
concrete chemical storage tank farm as a secure secondary
containment and ground water protection area. They wanted
a highly chemically resistant lining system to protect all
of the horizontal and vertical concrete surfaces from any
possible salt penetration and also to resist all of the many
other different chemicals that could be stored in the tanks
for use in the wide range of Ineos production processes.
Applying ATB-300 Vinyl Ester Resin Flooring System for Chemical
Containment Areas at Inneos Salt
NCC also work with many different Process Engineering
industries every day, all around the UK and ROI, enabling
our customers to obtain solutions to complex problems in
bund and containment area lining (primary and secondary),
resin flooring, tanking and concrete repairs on both new and
refurbishment projects.

Safe and Simple Solutions
NCC working as Materials Consultant and Distributors to
the specialist contractors, Thelwell Flooring Limited was
able to define and then successfully and durably meet all
of the project requirements using the Atako ATB-300 RC
System. This extremely resistant vinyl ester resin based
coating system was applied to all of the prepared horizontal
and vertical concrete surfaces, including the floor and walls,
plus all of the plinths and upstands in the whole of the new
bunded secondary containment area for the tank farm. The
special vinyl ester resins that are used for the ATB-300 RC
System provide extremely high resistance to a wide range of
aggressive materials, and also provide very good mechanical
resistance to abrasion and wear, including at both high and
low temperatures.
