Dominica Airport in the Caribbean

Radcon Formula #7 has been applied to the rooftop and the control tower of Melville Hall Airport in Dominica. The area covered is approximately 6,503 sq feet.

As it is close to the ocean and on the coast of an island it is exposed to everything from salts, aviation fuel, high winds and thermal stresses. Radcon was the ideal product to give it lifetime protection.

Miami Airport, USA

This structure was more than 25 years old and in need of refurbishment, with the objective of realising at least a further 50 years of service life at a minimum.  There were several issues to overcome with high humidity, a salt environment, many deck areas susceptible to ponding and contaminants including jet fuel residue.  The existing deck areas and ramps were media blasted where possible and the remaining areas high pressure washed.  Any existing cracks over 2 mm width were epoxy filled.
