Meanwhile, wear and tear are occurring much faster than in the past, driven by increased usage intensity of many infrastructures. At HIM Products, we understand that municipalities aim to avoid high expenses and face challenges in protecting their infrastructure from wear, vandalism, and other forms of damage. That\u2019s why we offer a range of cost-effective solutions that enhance both the safety and preservation of public facilities.<\/p>\r\n<p>Below, you\u2019ll find an overview of our effective applications for: <br \/><strong>\u00bb<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.him.nl\/en\/municipalities\/#link1\"><em>&#8230; improving infrastructure safety<\/em><\/a> <br \/><strong>\u00bb <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.him.nl\/en\/municipalities\/#link3\"><em>&#8230; preserving infrastructure<\/em><\/a><\/p>\r\n<p>[\/pageheadslider][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_gutenberg]<\/p>\r\n\r\n<div id=\"link1\">\u00a0<\/div>\r\n<p>[\/vc_gutenberg][advisors advisors-image=&#8221;4792&#8243; advisors-btntitel=&#8221;Ask us anything&#8221; advisors-link=&#8221;url:https%3A%2F%2Fwww.him.nl%2Fen%2Fcontact%2F|title:Contact&#8221; advisors-titel=&#8221;Safety solutions for (critical) infrastructure&#8221;] HIM\u2019s GWW solutions improve the (traffic) safety of critical infrastructure, such as roads, bridges, and tunnels.

Any setback, such as wear and vandalism, is one too many. With various preventive solutions, we ensure road markings and key structures like bridges and viaducts remain in optimal condition, requiring fewer resources for maintenance. Our solutions provide:<\/p>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li><strong>Protection against vandalism. <\/strong>Graffiti is a persistent issue for many local governments, often requiring significant time, money, and resources for removal\u2014or even repainting in extreme cases. HIM\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.him.nl\/en\/product\/anti-graffiti-coatings\/\">anti-graffiti coatings<\/a> offer a sustainable solution for stone and metal surfaces. The coatings prevent graffiti from adhering to the surface, making cleaning significantly easier. Applications include building facades, road signs, steel panels, cladding, and sheet piles. The same water-repellent layer also prevents moss growth and makes sticker removal simpler.<\/li>\r\n<li><strong>Protection against frost damage. <\/strong>Concrete surfaces are vulnerable to cracking due to weather conditions, such as extreme frost. For municipal parking garages with decks exposed to the elements, this can pose a risk. HIM Elastic provides a seamless, watertight, permanently elastic, and crack-bridging finish. Based on epoxy and polyurea, this flooring remains elastic even at -10\u00b0C, making it an ideal solution for (public) parking garages.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<p>[\/advisors][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][twocolumnuspmedia twocolumnuspmedia_titel=&#8221;Optimal preservation&#8221; twocolumnuspmedia_image=&#8221;4563&#8243;] Benefit from lower maintenance costs and longer lifespan!<\/p>\r\n<h3>\u00a0<\/h3>\r\n<p>[\/twocolumnuspmedia][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][twocolumnuspmedia twocolumnuspmedia_titel=&#8221;Fast delivery&#8221; twocolumnuspmedia_image=&#8221;4563&#8243;] Faster implementation means quicker usability\u2014always a bonus!
