In a construction landscape defined by rising performance expectations, tighter project timelines, and increasingly complex environmental conditions, a.b.e.®Saint‑Gobain, has introduced a future‑fit evolution of its trusted epoxy range: their New‑Generation epidermix® epoxy solutions. Re‑engineered with advanced formulations, broader application capabilities, and enhanced environmental tolerance, the new epidermix® range represents the next era of construction chemistry - high‑strength, multi‑purpose, and compliance‑driven.
A range built for the realities of modern construction
The New‑Generation epidermix® portfolio spans every major epoxy application category, enabling contractors, engineers, and maintenance teams to specify a single integrated range for complex projects. The offering includes:
Structural Grouting & Anchoring: Flowable grouts, rammable mortars, vertical crack‑repair systems, overhead anchoring formulations, and ultra‑rapid polyester products such as epidermix® 324, 325, 395, 396, and 725.
Structural Bonding: High‑strength wet‑to‑dry and dry‑to‑dry adhesives designed for concrete‑to‑concrete bonding, repair interfaces, and multi‑material adhesion, including epidermix® 344, 345, and 350.
Concrete Repair Mortars: Non‑slump, vertical and overhead repair mortars for spalls, honeycombing, patching, and precision reinstatement, with products such as epidermix® 314, 318, and 319.
Structural Crack Repair: Low‑viscosity and liquid, deep‑penetrating epoxy systems for restoring compromised concrete integrity, both structural and non‑structural, including epidermix® 389, 395, and 365.
Protective Coatings & Primers: High‑build, chemical‑resistant, underwater‑tolerant coatings and primers such as epidermix® 311, 326, and 338, engineered for severe and demanding environments.
Flooring & General‑Purpose Adhesives: Wet‑to‑dry bond enhancers and rapid‑set epoxy adhesives for industrial, commercial, and civil flooring applications, including epidermix® 116, epidermix® 372, and epidermix® 372 Fast Set.
This extensive portfolio enables the epidermix® range to support diverse sectors, including infrastructure, transportation, chemical and industrial facilities, marine environments, fabrication, water management, and general building, making it one of the most complete epoxy platforms available.
Why “new‑generation”? A clear step forward in formulation science
The evolution of the epidermix® family represents far more than updated packaging—it is the outcome of targeted reformulation aligned with modern construction demands.
Improved damp tolerance
A notable enhancement across several products - such as epidermix® 318, 324, 395, 396, 344, and 389 - is their ability to bond or cure effectively on damp or even underwater substrates. This advancement significantly reduces delays during rainy seasons, shutdown‑restricted industrial maintenance, and marine or infrastructure repair projects where moisture control is a challenge.
Higher strength and durability
Upgraded epoxy chemistries now deliver stronger compressive, adhesive, and chemical‑resistance profiles, essential for anchoring, structural repairs, and bonding under dynamic or high‑load conditions.
User‑friendly rheology and application behavior
Improved flowability, thixotropy, optimized pot life, and non‑slump formulas simplify placement in vertical, overhead, narrow‑access, and precision‑critical scenarios.
Enhanced curing performance
Updated curing profiles ensure faster return‑to‑service, crucial for transport infrastructure, industrial facilities, and civil works where downtime carries substantial cost implications.
Designed to meet international standards
Selected epidermix® products have been tested and verified according to European Standards EN 1504‑3, EN 1504‑5 and EN 1504‑6, governing structural and non‑structural concrete repair systems as well as anchoring of reinforcement steel. This compliance provides engineers with increased confidence in durability, reliability, and correct specification for mission‑critical applications.
A future‑fit system for an evolving industry
Supported by Saint‑Gobain’s global innovation capability, the a.b.e. New‑Generation epidermix® range aligns with the industry’s move toward lighter, more sustainable, and more durable construction solutions. With upgraded performance, broader versatility, and verified compliance with leading international standards, the renewed epidermix® range offers a high‑performance, technically advanced toolkit for building - and rebuilding - modern infrastructure with confidence.
