About Catódica
CATÓDICA GmbH, based in Mönchengladbach, is a company specialised in electrochemical rehabilitation methods and corrosion monitoring. Its core service is cathodic corrosion protection (CCP) of reinforced concrete structures, complemented by electrochemical chloride extraction and realkalisation. The services cover full-service project support: condition assessment using non-destructive measurement methods such as potential field, concrete cover, concrete resistance and radar measurements as well as rebar scans, consulting and know-how transfer, workshop planning for electrical systems and monitoring systems, execution of the rehabilitation systems including electrical work, delivery and installation of control cabinets as well as as-built documentation, plus commissioning, adjustment, performance assessment, inspection and maintenance in accordance with DIN EN ISO 12696 with qualified personnel in accordance with DIN EN ISO 15257. In addition, the company develops customised solutions, feasibility studies, cost estimates and corrosion monitoring systems for structural asset management. The target structures are mainly reinforced concrete structures and infrastructure whose load-bearing capacity and structural stability are threatened in the long term by corrosion of the reinforcement.
