Belt & Suspenders Waterproofing
Sometimes you absolutely positively have to make sure that your structure won’t leak. You want double-protection waterproofing. Used with membranes, Hycrete waterproofing admixtures can provide additional protection against leaks – and also improve the durability of the structure.
Benefits:
- Improve waterproofing performance and reduce risks
- Improve the overall quality of your waterproofing system by adding Hycrete admixtures to shut down capillary transport in concrete
- Offer superior performance compared to crystalline admixtures by dramatically reducing water absorption
- Accelerate construction
- Reduce the risk of weather delays – hydrophobic concrete does not get saturated after rain, and membrane application is less at risk from weather delays
- Reduce risk
- Green material
- Hycrete admixtures are Cradle-to-Cradle™ certified and safe for use with vegetation
- Increase durability and the lifecycle of your structure
Examples of applications for belt and suspenders waterproofing using Hycrete waterproofing admixtures:
- Green roofs
- Sensitive spaces such as offices and data centers
