About UTECH Systems

UTECH Systems is a family business from Baden that manufactures water glass-based deep impregnations for concrete, reinforced concrete and natural stone and also applies them itself. It also supplies manhole extensions, plastic manhole covers and components made from recycled plastic for road construction, sewers and outdoor spaces.

The products

• CPS-BETON: impregnation made from sodium silicate water glass with an organic catalyst, for sealing new and old components made of concrete and reinforced concrete.
• SPS-NATURSTEIN: potassium water glass with a beading effect, intended for concrete and above all for natural stone such as sandstone, granite, marble and brick.
• STABIFLEX II: a semi-elastic manhole extension between cone and cover. It replaces adjusting rings and mortar joints, according to the manufacturer can bear loads of up to 600 kN and compensates for up to 20 per cent slope.
• UTECH-KIO: manhole covers made of composite material instead of cast iron, according to the manufacturer 70 per cent lighter, slip-resistant and able to bear loads of up to 400 kN.
• HANIT: decking boards, benches, palisades and privacy screens made from secondary plastic, awarded the "Der Blaue Engel" eco-label.

Water glass is a silicate solution that penetrates the substrate and seals the pores from the inside instead of forming a layer on top. Both impregnations are produced in Lower Austria and, according to the company, are regularly tested by testing bodies such as the OFI.

Who works with them

• Customers: municipalities, water and wastewater associations, housing cooperatives, the food, steel and oil industries as well as infrastructure operators such as ÖBB and ASFINAG.
• Application: the company's own specialist staff apply the impregnation, and the construction and project managers inspect the site beforehand.
• Abroad: since 2023 there has been a sales partner in Chile.
