BACKGROUND

Access Bank Plc is a corporate commercial bank with operations across major commercial centres in Nigeria, Sub Saharan Africa and the United Kingdom. The Bank is currently one of the largest banks in Nigeria. Total assets: NGN 1.84 trillion (as of December 31, 2015). Due to lack of space, the main diesel supply tank for the emergency backup generator was designed to be put into the ground. The diesel tank is made of steel and must be guarded against corrosion in the salty ground water of the area.

​

SOLUTION

Kryton's KIM being known for its permanent waterproofing ability was opted for. The concrete diesel tank encasement was dosed with KIM to make it watertight and also guard against corrosion of structural steel from the salt contaminated ground water.
