The Anchor
The flexible sleeve of woven polyester restrains the flow and expands to about twice its normal diameter, moulding itself into the shape and spaces within the walls, providing a mechanical as well as chemical bond. The large surface area of the anchor, in conjunction with the pressurised grout create an anchor system that dispenses with the need for unsightly patress plates on the exterior of the structure, creating an invisible mend. This product provides an effective solution for repairs to a variety of structures, damaged often as a result of subsidence, earthquake or general wear and tear. Moreover, the CINTEC Anchor is increasingly recognised as the minimal disruption answer for the upgrading of masonry arches, taking the strain of road haulage with progressively heavier axle loadings. The system has even been applied underwater, in harbour walls and foundations, demonstrating itself to be a versatile tool, resolving the multitude of technical challenges presented to it. Monuments, Churches and bridges have all benefited from its installation and today the patented anchor system can be found in some of the worlds greatest structures from the Empire State Building in New York to the Christ Church Cathedral in New South Wales.

The 'CINTEC' system comprises a steel section in a mesh fabric sleeve, into which a specially developed
cementitious grout is injected under pressure.
