ANCHOR-LOK® mechanically locks into concrete structures to provide unmatched corrosion resistance. ANCHOR-LOK® reduces construction time, eliminates concrete cure and surface preparation, and provides verified pinhole and leak-free integrity throughout the lining system. ANCHOR-LOK® sheet is available in various grades of Polyethylene (PE), Polypropylene (PP), Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) and Polyvinylidene Fluoride (PVDF).

Project Case Study – Anchor-LOK®
Challenge:
A prominent, global pharmaceutical company grew tired of dealing with constant chemical attack of their facility’s primary process trench runs. The main issue was the array of acidic solutions being discharged into the trench, and finding a product that would withstand the corrosion, while providing primary containment.
Solution:
A comprehensive Anchor-LOK® Lining System was initially introduced as a possible solution, but it was the Anchor LOK® sheet of Polyvinylidene Fluoride (PVDF) that was ultimately chosen for its broad range, chemical resistance, and successful track record in similar applications. Two primary trench runs and collection sumps were installed within two weeks, enabling operation to resume. The facility went from experiencing two outages per year for repair, re-surfacing, and re-coating the trench runs to zero outages per year. The maintenance savings over a two-year period more than compensated for the investment and installation of Anchor-LOK®.
The ROI is better than we imagined maintenance-wise. The system installed paid for itself within a 24-month period.
