Solution

Bode's Precast has been utilizing KIM within their precast water containment tanks since 1997 with excellent results. In wet areas where potable water contamination from the ground is a concern and in regions where drinking water is in short supply, the waterproofing ability of KIM concrete is providing significant benefit.

The self-healing charactistics of KIM have been witnessed by customers and are particularly impressive to Bode's Precast. In cases where the ground has shifted or cracks developed during installation, witnesses have noted that leaks have stopped entirely within days.
