System solutions for the most extreme conditions
The risk of corrosion is at its highest around harbours, piers, jetty piles and offshore systems: Materials come under attack from permanent exposure to salt water, exceptionally high humidity, condensation and air pollution caused by ships, and these areas fall into the highest category for corrosion.
These materials are frequently subjected to significant mechanical loads as well. Our reliable protection systems are specifically designed to cope with these challenging conditions.
Structural engineering
In structural engineering, the requirements for sealing and corrosion prevention are based on the end application of the specific project in question: In shopping centres with rooftop parking decks, products are selected based on their load-bearing ability and vibration-damping capacity. On the other hand, in industrial buildings, the focus is on cost-effectiveness.
RUNWAYS
Runways are subject to extreme loads, bearing the weight of exceptionally heavy planes in quick succession. Flight traffic continues even in poor weather conditions. Repairs have to live up to high expectations: They need to cope with very large mechanical loads and enable the runway to be reopened to traffic swiftly.
Sewer construction and silage plants
The need to protect our environment while also focusing on cost-effective solutions has resulted in the development of innovative products for sealing connections and tapered joints in channels, pipes and shafts. In 2013, DEKOTEC invented TOK®-Sil Resist and took another step forwards in groundwater protection for the biogas industry.
Pipelines
Our products for existing pipeline restorations and new pipeline sections, as well as repair systems for the restoration of pipeline integrity, are all certified system solutions. Since 1927, our systems have been successfully protecting millions of metres of pipeline against corrosion all over the world.
Ports
The world’s highest safety standards are applied in the construction and operation of power plants and refineries because of their enormous impact on people,the environment and their considerable technical complexity. These requirements apply to all plants, pipelines and tank farms. Their durable corrosion protection, reliable insulation and permanent sealing ensure occupational and operational safety to prevent accidents and incidents.
Power stations, refinery and station construction
The world’s highest safety standards are applied in the construction and operation of power plants and refineries because of their enormous impact on people,the environment and their considerable technical complexity.

Road and railway construction
Extreme loads are a major factor in road construction: The demand for virtually limitless mobility requires a high-performance road system. However the road construction sector must meet tight deadlines for opening to traffic while staying within strict budgets. For four decades, DEKOTEC has been the market leader and your reliable partner for all road construction challenges. Following its 1977 launch, TOK®-Band quickly established itself as a high-quality “Made in Germany” product, and its name became a worldwide synonym for bitumen joint tapes.
