Hydrodemolition
Our service
Hydrodemolition is an incredible concept that significantly improves the quality of demolition. As environmental constraints become increasingly stringent in Quebec, robotic hydrodemolition becomes an asset for Formax, being one of the few and only suppliers in Quebec.
This technique, which projects a jet of water at very high or ultra-high pressure, is very practical in various situations where constraints are high and the environment is a concern.
Our equipment allows for pressures of up to 40,000 psi with approximately 11 gallons per minute, and for full-depth robotic demolition, pressures range from 20,000 psi to 60 gallons per minute.
Business Sectors
- Destruction and cutting of reinforced concrete
- Full or partial rehabilitation of concrete structures
