SpecChem products approved for use in major Panama Canal expansion

The $5.25 billion Panama Canal expansion project doubled the capacity of the canal, increasing both the number of ships and the size of ships that could pass through. Our non-shrink, non-metallic, DOT approved SC Multi-Purpose Grout and our ASTM 881 compliant, hi-mod SpecPoxy 3000 were submitted and approved for this project. SpecPoxy 3000 was used to bond steel plates to concrete structures, while our SC Multi-Purpose Grout was used to grout lighting standards.
