When competing against other products, using CIM can save the owner money both short term and long term. CIM can save labor and equipment costs especially with projects with complex shapes or penetrations. CIM forms a seamless liner, so there are no worries about seam failures. The asphalt extended polyurethane formula makes CIM very abrasion resistant. However, if the liner does get damaged, CIM can be easily repaired. This keeps long term costs down and the portion that was repaired will retain its original properties. CIM is a true elastomer and can stretch many times beyond its original size and return to its original size without loss of properties. It remains flexible at extreme temperatures. CIM also has the ability to bridge cracks up to 1/4 of an inch. With the changing seasons, a big advantage of being an elastomer is CIM’s ability to move with the substrate. As the concrete or steel expands and contracts with the changing temperatures, the CIM moves right along with it. While this article only covers a few advantages, if you are looking for a specific advantage, please contact our office. Our staff will provide you with the technical information that is necessary to help you.
