Engineered for extreme conditions
Unlike other products that are hard, rigid and tend to crack, SpectraShield uses a layered system of flexible polymers that can be applied with a minimum thickness of 500 mils. The flexibility means SpectraShield won’t crack when the host structure moves or is stressed by shifts in temperatures, wetness or heavy traffic conditions.

SpectraShield Benefits
Flexible Formula
SpectraShield restores structural integrity with a “stress skin panel” effect. This provides flexibility to accommodates common ground movement conditions such as freeze/thaw climates and traffic loading.
Quick application
SpectraShield goes on fast, and cures fast: a seven-foot manhole can be lined in less than one hour.
Easy on budget
SpectraShield is a cost-efficient alternative to manual repair and other liner systems and coatings currently available.

“They have installed the SpectraShield liner system in more than half of the city’s 500 manholes. They stand behind their product and workmanship, and they offer a 10-year warranty.”
“We’ve had over 100 manholes coated with your product and reduced our infiltration by over 100,000 gallons per day. We have many brick manholes that we thought were in need of replacement but your product made them like new again, which cut down on capital cost.”
“So far, we've had great performance. Some of the older cementitious liners, within a year, they would be coming off the walls. And we've had very few problems of what we call 'the pink stuff.' [SpectraShield] looks like Pepto Bismol so when you pop a manhole, you know if it's been rehabbed or not instantaneously.”
“The SpectraShield system has a 10-year warranty and 100-year design life. That, and how quickly it is installed, sold me. The actual lining took two hours with minimal disruption. We returned the lines to service within minutes of the application.”
"I have been working with SpectraShield for over 15 years and have found their product excellent in the areas of manhole and lift station rehabilitation as well as rehabilitation of influent structures at waste water treatment plants. SpectraShield is superior in both protection to hydrogen sulfide gas and ease of application, allowing the sanitary system to be put back in service in a very short time."
