Basilisk has a number of unique products that enable self-healing properties of concrete. The technology is based on micro-organisms that produce limestone, as a result crack formation in concrete structures can be autonomously repaired.

Basilisk Self Healing Concrete is developed at the Delft University of Technology and is an autonomous repair system that works with limestone-producing micro-organisms (bacteria). If the bacteria come into contact with oxygen and water, they will convert nutrients to …

Japanese water purification plant built with self-healing concrete The superior waterproof performance of self-healing concrete was the reason to select Basilisk for this project. Membranes or other types of water proofing measures could be omitted, thereby savings costs.

The autonomous repair system is accommodated in several products which are suitable for both new and existing concrete structures. The healing ability has been extensively tested under different conditions and will be covered in a KIWA-covenant.

Self-healing concrete is concrete that repairs itself (without human intervention) when cracks appear. The technology works with micro-organisms that produce limestone. In this way, the durability of the concrete is greatly improved.

With Basilisk Healing Agent, any concrete mix can easily be converted to a concrete with self-healing properties. Basilisk Healing Agent is a bio-based granular additive that repairs cracks in concrete and makes it waterproof. It autonomously fills crack widths up to 1 mm with limestone.

Just like that, the Basilisk Self-Healing Concrete technology turns water into an advantage. It uses water to heal cracks in concrete that would normally threaten the lifespan of a building or object.

The excellent waterproof properties of self-healing concrete were the main reason for our Japanese partner Aizawa to propose this type of concrete. In addition, less maintenance and a longer design life cycle were positive distinctions from other types of traditional concrete.

Basilisk Self-Healing Repair Mortar MR3 is a one batch ready-mix cementitious based mortar for concrete repair, meeting the requirements of the European Standard EN 1504-3 class R3 repair mortars. Basilisk MR3 is CE certified and available in bags of 15 kg.

Sustainable concrete with a biobased self-healing agent for low carbon concrete. Allowing for a reduction of shrinkage reinforcement up to 40%.
