Our specialist concrete engineers bring proven design expertise and problem-solving abilities to every project, helping you achieve the optimum solution where long-term performance is the ultimate benchmark.
Contech’s post-tensioned slabs and systems strengthen concrete in any location – enabling longer spans and simpler engineered concrete solutions.
When it comes to safeguarding vital infrastructure, we’ve got you covered: we can protect bridge and wharf structures, water and wastewater infrastructure, and industrial facilities.
Contech offer a suite of concrete repair services and solutions that repair and restore the strength and durability of your structures. If you need concrete repairs, we’ve got the expertise.
Contech offer a suite of concrete structure strengthening solutions using FRP, post-tensioning or even titanium. We’ve got the expertise and solution to suit your project.
At Contech, we specialise in mastering the hard stuff because we recognise that in civil engineering, it’s not a matter of what could go wrong, but rather, what will go wrong. Our team of dedicated civil engineers thrive on these challenges because we know they hold the potential for groundbreaking solutions. We embrace each obstacle as an opportunity to showcase our expertise.
As part of the BBR Network, Contech has access to the latest technical knowledge and resources, project support and global knowledge sharing. This includes BBR’s internationally-recognised brands and processes, and more.

We believe that transparent and honest communication is key to a successful collaboration, so you can count on us to provide you with accurate assessments and trustworthy guidance throughout the entire process.
No sawcuts and minimal construction joints. This is because all concrete drying shrinkage is directed to the floor edges, eliminating potential for internal floor cracks. This also eliminates expensive lifetime maintenance of sawcuts and joints.
Contech provide full design and drawing service for PT Slabs on grade. We will also advise designers if they would rather undertake the design themselves.
Sewpercoat both repairs the damage caused by Biogenic Corrosion and protects the structure from on-going Biogenic corrosion by introducing a “bacterio-static effect” that drastically slows down the acidophilic bacteria ecosystem, inhibiting the acid generation at the source itself.
A CodeMark Certificate of Conformity is evidence that the stated FRP system has been independently tested and confirmed as meeting the following key requirements of the NZ building code:
An FRP system with Codemark cannot be rejected by a New Zealand consent issuing body as being unsuitable for the purposes defined in the Codemark application.
There are a number of accepted design guides for strengthening structures with FRP. The most commonly used in New Zealand is ACI440.2R, the most recent version was released in 2017. Many other countries have also published FRP design standards which have varying balances of ease of use/computation and conservatism/efficiency. Notable examples include TR55 (UK), fib Bulletin 14 (Europe), SIA 166 – SIA 262 (Switzerland), and CNR-DT 200 R1/2013 (Italy).
