Protect What Matters: Long-Term Maintenance Solutions with Protectosil®

Infrastructure is built to last - but only if it’s protected. Exposure to moisture, pollutants, and de-icing salts erodes the structural integrity of bridges and tunnels, buildings and monuments. Evonik empowers asset owners, engineers, and maintenance professionals with Protectosil® high-performance surface protection solutions.

With decades of experience, Evonik has developed advanced silane-based technologies that extend the life of concrete, masonry, and steel-reinforced structures. This helps reduce maintenance costs, minimizing environmental impact, and ensuring safety for generations.

  • Ideal for bridges, parking decks, tunnels, facades, and marine structures.

Masonry & Building Envelope Protection
