Check Out Our Updated MCI® Brochure-More User-Friendly and Relevant!
March 21, 2023
When you have a handbook, you want it to be as up to date and user-friendly as possible. That is what our MCI® Technology general brochure seeks to do in its most recent edition, which came hot off the press just in time for World of Concrete in January! Here’s a look at some of the highlights from our latest version.New Visuals
If a picture is worth a thousand words, this brochure has more to say than ever. A QR code on the first page inside the brochure takes readers to our MCI® admixtures animation for a great intro to the basics of concrete corrosion and how MCI® Technology can help. Illustrations in the MCI® Product Application Guide have been enlarged to make it easier to see what concrete and MCI® treatment may look like at different stages in the structural life cycle. An expanded specialty products section includes new images that tell a much clearer story on where and how these MCI® solutions can be used.Relevant Certifications and Guidelines
Another improvement is the referencing of certain key certifications and guidelines that apply to MCI® products. For example, some MCI® Technologies have received CE certification (for purchase in the EU) or have been certified to meet ANSI/NSF Standard 61 certification for use on drinking water system components. The text also refers to ACI 212.3 and ICRI Guideline No. 510.2-2019, two important industry standards that recognize the underlying chemistry of MCI® in their discussions of corrosion inhibiting admixtures and surface applied corrosion inhibitors (SACIs), respectively.Updated Charts
Updated charts are also a plus. For example, the MCI® admixture comparison chart has been expanded to include an additional admixture chemistry. A completely new chart has been added that defines pure MCI® inhibitors versus MCI® water repellents and identifies which MCI® SACIs fall under each category. The product selection guide has been updated to remove obsolete technologies and include new ones, such as our most recent MCI® repair mortar additions. Furthermore, better labeling makes it easier to navigate specialty products by clearly identifying each product type (e.g., cleaners, coatings, injectable gels).A Great Educational and Selling Tool!
After some serious reflection by our team on how to make it better, our MCI® brochure has emerged as more up to date, usable, and relevant. It is a great tool for educating yourself, colleagues, and clients as you move forward in your journey of enhancing concrete durability and sustainability with MCI®.
