Hybrid Cements

Custom Solutions for Diverse Infrastructure Needs

Vortex Companies is proud to offer our range of in-house designed and third-party tested hybrid cements, crafted to meet the diverse needs of any project. Our hybrid cements, including AluminaLiner® and QM-1s Restore®, are engineered to provide superior performance, especially in environments requiring high corrosion resistance and structural integrity.

Ideal Usage Scenarios for Hybrid Cements:

Sewer Rehabilitation: Effective in preventing corrosion and reinforcing structural integrity in aging sewer systems.
Wastewater Treatment Structures: Ideal for manholes, lift stations, and wet wells requiring enhanced durability and corrosion resistance.
High-Corrosion Environments: Best used where high levels of hydrogen sulfide or other corrosive gases are present.

Our hybrid cements are not only versatile but also offer a range of application methods including spin-cast, spray gun, or trowel application, allowing for up to two inches of coverage in a single coat. With properties such as freeze-thaw resistance, high strengths, and low permeability, Vortex’s hybrid cements are the perfect choice for maintaining and enhancing infrastructure longevity and functionality.

AluminaLiner^®

AluminaLiner^® is a factory-blended, one-component, fiber-reinforced, 100% calcium aluminate cement, designed to provide excellent corrosion resistance against typical hydrogen sulfide gas (microbiologically induced) corrosion, add structural integrity and stop groundwater infiltration in sewer structures with a pH of 2 or greater.

Vertical and overhead repairs to concrete or masonry sewer structures such as manholes, wet wells, pipe and treatment plant structures where corrosion is a problem.
