Fosroc Hydroproof (50ltr) - Premium, Crystalline Waterproofing

Fosroc Hydroproof (50ltr) is a high-performance, crystalline waterproofing admixture designed for use in concrete. It's a unique, environmentally friendly solution that transforms concrete from within, providing long-lasting, durable protection against water ingress and preventing leakage. Unlike surface-applied membranes, Hydroproof actively interacts with the concrete matrix to create a permanently waterproof structure.

Key Features & Benefits:

• Crystalline Technology: Hydroproof utilizes advanced crystalline technology. When mixed with concrete, its active chemical components react with water and the cement hydrates to grow millions of insoluble, needle-shaped crystals throughout the concrete matrix. These crystals effectively block capillary pores and micro-cracks, creating an impermeable barrier against water.
• Self-Healing Properties: The crystalline structure continues to grow and develop over time, self-healing minor cracks that may appear due to shrinkage or settling. This ensures lasting protection, even in dynamic environments.
• Permanent Protection: Unlike coatings which can wear or peel, the crystalline structure becomes an integral part of the concrete, providing long-term, permanent waterproofing.
• Increased Durability: Hydroproof enhances the concrete's overall durability and resistance to freeze-thaw cycles, reducing the risk of spalling and deterioration.
• Environmentally Friendly: Hydroproof is a solvent-free, low-VOC product, making it a safer and more sustainable choice compared to many traditional waterproofing methods.
• Easy to Use: Simply add Hydroproof to the concrete mix during batching, ensuring seamless integration and ease of application.
• Cost-Effective: The long-term protection and reduced maintenance requirements associated with Hydroproof lead to significant cost savings over the lifespan of the structure.

Applications:

• Basements and cellars
• Retaining walls
• Tunnels and underground structures
• Water tanks and reservoirs
• Swimming pools (in conjunction with appropriate surface treatments)
• Foundations
• Lift shafts
• Precast concrete elements
