U.K. farmers are being encouraged to partner with the Environment Agency to help maintain the sea walls that protect their land. Farmers may be licensed to undertake minor repairs. Repair processes need to be cost-effective, simple, safe to apply, and result in a quality repair. Elastomer may well be a useful tool in this process. Is it available in the U.K.?
