Case Studies
Koi-Kote has been successfully used in a wide variety of applications, from small-scale domestic applications to large-scale commercial installations:
Kent - Approx 100 sq.m 2017
Existing ornate pond that customer extended in size and waterproofed utilising a combination of the Clear & black versions of Koi-Kote to produce a fantastic result.
There were a large number of cracks within the existing structure that were repaired using a fine glass fibre matting in conjunction with Clear Koi-Kote.
This method was also employed at the intersections between new and old parts of the pond to ensure that any differential movement was absorbed by the composite created.
The whole structure was then coated with the Clear Koi-Kote as a primer / base coat and finished in Black Koi-Kote to provide a seamless finish.
Crocodiles of the World, Oxfordshire - various areas totalling 120 sq.m
Crocodiles of the World was the UK’s first Crocodile Zoo and used a combination of the Grey and Green versions of Koi-Kote to create a water tight seal in all of the concrete ponds /enclosures.
