Graffiti-proof and future-ready: Smart fixes for ageing concrete and costly cleanups

What if you could slash graffiti removal costs and dramatically cut maintenance downtime on your concrete structures, without compromising durability or environmental compliance?

That’s what this Highways Voices is all about, as we talk about a subject that isn’t often discussed, but should be - graffiti on road infrastructure, plus our ageing concrete bridges and flyovers.

We’re talking to Fosroc, a leading international manufacturer and supplier of high performance chemicals for the construction industry, with a particular focus on concrete and cement.
