Wet Curing Blanket

These wet curing blankets are made from a cross laminating textured

Polyethylene film with a non-woven Geo-Textile designed to be

hydrated and inhibit moisture loss during the curing process of

concrete. The white color of the film and geotextile will effectively

reflect sunlight and significantly reduce heating of the concrete surface

caused by sunlight in hot weather conditions. It is recommended

to cover fresh concrerte with the Wet Curing Blanket as soon as the

concrete is poured. Designed for both interior and exterior uses. Easy

to install and remove after the concrete has been cured. Available

in a standard size of 6' x 150' rolls. Meets and exceeds AASHTO M-171

and ASTM C-171, "Standard Specification for Sheet Materials for Curing

Concrete" for moisture retention and daylight reflection.

Application:

Pre-wet concrete as required. Ideally flood the surface with

water approximately 1/8" deep or more. Use care to prevent erosion

of the surface. Soak the geo-textile side of the Wet Curing Blanket

thoroughly. Apply curing blankets as soon as possible after placing and

finishing the concrete without marring the surface. Unroll curing blankets

with the fabric side down toward the concrete and the white-cross

laminated side up. Achieve a uniform layer of water under the blanket

and use a roller squeegee to help secure the cover. Observe the water

content and add if needed. Re-wetting may be required during the

curing process depending upon weather conditions and specification

requirements. Overlap panels approximately 6" to seal in moisture.

Forms should also be covered and kept wet during the curing process.

Keep blankets in contact with the entire concrete surface at all times

during the curing process. Care should be taken so the concrete is not

stained by impurities in the water or by soiled blankets. Always review

your wet curing requirements for specified methods and length of time

requirement for curing.

The above installation is an example; concrete

normally needs at least 7-days of continuous wet curing.

Burlap

Burlap is an absorbent cover for curing concrete which allows periodic

lapses in the sprinkling method of curing. Burlap should be rinsed

thoroughly before placing. Care should be taken to ensure proper

lapping and that all concrete edges are covered. Keep continuously

wet. Burlap may also be used to roughen fresh concrete surfaces by

wet dragging. Standard weight 10 oz.
