DenseCRETE® is heavyweight high density concrete that can be poured, pumped, or conveyed, and is as versatile as conventional density concrete in both application and usability. DenseCRETE® eliminates the need for, and the high costs associated with, composite shields which can consist of combinations of lead, steel, concrete and polyethylene. DenseCRETE® alone is capable of attenuating the full range of ionizing high-energy radiation due to its extreme weight as well as its hydrogen and optional boron content. DenseCRETE® attenuates gamma, x-ray, proton, and neutron radiation all in a compact and relatively inexpensive footprint.

Benefits

• Mixes and designs are specifically tailored to the unique requirements for each individual project
• DenseCRETE® eliminates the need for, and the high costs associated with, composite shields which can consist of combinations of lead, steel, concrete and polyethylene.
• Completely non-toxic and environmentally safe.
