Ashford Formula ™

Ashford Formula concrete sealer from BNE Contractors in Kitchener, Ontario providing province-wide concrete flooring services. Concrete desensification – protecting and strengthening concrete floors and masonry building materials.

The Ashford Formula, the leader in concrete densification since 1949 is a transparent, chemically reactive, water-based sealer that penetrates concrete and masonry building materials, protecting, preserving and strengthening them permanently. With one application of the the Ashford Formula concrete or other masonry is cured and permanently sealed for its lifetime and rendered highly resilient to oils, greases and other surface contaminants.

Treatable Materials:
  • Concrete
  • Heavyweight concrete block
  • Mortar
  • Plaster
  • Stucco
  • Terrazzo
  • Exposed aggregate
  • any other sand, aggregate or cement combination


How does the Ashford Formula work?

Curing
The Ashford Formula controls hairline checking and temperature cracking on new concrete

Sealing
The Ashford Formula penetrates deep into the concrete forming a chemical reaction that locks the pores from within providing a deep permanent seal on all types of concrete surfaces.

Hardening
The Ashford Formula chemically reacts with the salts in the concrete permanently eliminating the release of concrete dust through the surface pores.

Neutralizing Alkali
As the Ashford Formula progressively penetrates the concrete it neutralizes the alkali forcing them to the surface where they can be washed away during the application.

Bonding
The Ashford Formula prepares the treated surface for paints, caulking compounds, adhesives and floor coverings by eliminating the surface concrete salts that are so detrimental to proper bonding

Notes on the Ashford Formula

Apply the Ashford Formula to coloured concrete only after the slab is fully cured. Do not apply the Ashford Formula in the following cases:
  • to seal lightweight block or other extremely porous masonry that contains actual holes or pockets
  • when the temperature falls below 35 degrees F / 2 degree C
  • to areas previously treated with curing or sealing agents unless these coatings have been removed by chemical or mechanical means
