In August 2026, REBO delivered acid proof bricks to a metallurgical galvanizing plant in Saudi Arabia, supporting the facility’s industrial floor lining project. This shipment reflects REBO’s commitment to supplying specialized lining materials for international industrial applications. By providing products suited to specific project requirements, REBO helps customers build reliable foundations for their production facilities and long-term operational needs.
What is The Challenge of Protecting Galvanizing Plant Floors?
Galvanizing workshops face challenging floor conditions due to acid pickling, chemical transfer, steel handling, and routine equipment cleaning. Acid splashes and liquid spills can expose floor surfaces to corrosive substances, particularly around pickling tanks, chemical handling zones, and drainage channels. If these substances penetrate the concrete, they can accelerate structural deterioration, increase maintenance costs, and disrupt production. Effective floor protection therefore requires an acid proof lining system designed to withstand the plant’s specific chemical exposure and operating conditions.
REBO’s Solution: Acid Proof Bricks+KP1 Mortar
REBO supplied standard acid proof bricks combined with KP1 potassium silicate mortar to provide a corrosion-resistant lining solution for the workshop floor. The combination helps protect the underlying floor structure and supports long-term service in demanding industrial environments. Final material selection should always consider the actual chemicals, concentrations, operating temperatures, and exposure conditions.
- Acid Proof Bricks: Form a protective surface against compatible corrosive media in the working environment.
- KP1 Mortar: Bonds the bricks together to create a continuous lining system when correctly selected, installed, and cured.
Planning a Corrosion-Resistant Floor for Your Plant?
Every galvanizing facility has different operating conditions, from hydrochloric acid pickling tanks and chemical storage areas to rinsing zones and drainage channels. Selecting the right acid resistant lining requires careful consideration of chemical concentration, operating temperature, exposure conditions, and mechanical loads.
REBO helps you identify suitable acid resistant bricks, tiles, and compatible jointing acid proof mortars based on your project requirements. Whether you are constructing a new galvanizing facility or upgrading an existing floor, we can provide product recommendations, customized drawings, and coordinated material solutions to support your lining project.
