Advanced Rehabilitation Technology (ART), Ltd products

The OBIC Armor System addresses the widespread issue of manhole deterioration and corrosion caused by exposure to hydrogen sulfide in wastewater systems. This system offers an economical solution compared to expensive replacements, utilizing advancements in polyurea technology for effective manhole rehabilitation. The OBIC Armor System is a multi-layer lining method, incorporating the OBIC 1000 flexible polyurea and OBIC 1306 closed cell foam, providing a robust sealing and protective measure. The process involves cleaning, applying multiple coatings, and ensuring complete drying of the structure, culminating in a durable, monolithic liner approximately 500 mils thick. Once the installation is validated, a 10-year warranty begins from the liner installation date, reducing concerns about durability and timeline. The system is designed for quick implementation, minimizing downtime for municipal and industrial sewer systems.

ART offers an innovative solution for stormwater culvert rehabilitation using the OBIC 1200C, a spray-applied lining system designed to restore and extend the lifespan of severely damaged culverts. This environmentally friendly method ensures the structural integrity of the infrastructure, potentially prolonging its service life by 50 years or more. It is designed to minimize traffic disruptions while maintaining the culvert. By addressing issues early, this system helps avoid the costly and complicated process of a full culvert replacement. The OBIC 1200C provides a strategic approach to culvert maintenance, offering significant advantages for long-term infrastructure management and sustainability. The service targets the efficient management of stormwater while ensuring minimal environmental impact.

The OBIC 1100PW is a specialized coating system designed to rehabilitate and protect potable water tanks and distribution systems from corrosion. Corrosion can silently degrade the infrastructure over time, posing a threat to water quality. The OBIC 1100PW coating not only repairs existing damage but also offers a robust defense against future corrosion, significantly extending the life of water systems by several decades. This fast-setting polyurea application is ANSI 61 certified for potable water and meets USDA compliance for food and beverage applications, making it ideal for a variety of settings, including water treatment plants, industrial facilities, and food processing plants. By minimizing downtime during installation, OBIC 1100PW provides a cost-effective solution compared to full system replacements, safeguarding investments in new and existing infrastructure across the globe.

ART provides specialized lining solutions for wastewater treatment plants using the OBIC Armor multi-layer system. This system is designed to enhance the durability and performance of water treatment facilities by providing superior protection against chemical corrosion and environmental factors. With the OBIC polyurea lining, tanks and treatment structures can achieve extended lifespans of up to 50 years, reducing the need for frequent maintenance. The system also offers a smooth surface to mitigate algae growth, simplifying the cleaning process. ART's offerings include customizable solutions tailored to maintain the structural integrity of treatment plants and ensure reliable operation. Demonstrations of the rehabilitation process are available to showcase the benefits of OBIC products.
