Comparative characteristic of types of waterproofing
While you are building, repairing and reconstructing, you certainly face a waterproofing problem. And certainly you compare what waterproofing material is better to work with , what waterproofing material will not cause claims from your customers. You are as the executor are interested in a qualitative material. Consider comparative characteristics of some most popular kinds of a waterproofing:
Comparative characteristic of types of waterproofing

Do you need a really qualitative original material? We offer it. They are materials of Penetron ®system.
Basic difference Penetron ® materials from traditional methods of waterproofing is waterproofing layer formation not on a concrete surface, but inside its weight. Thanks to that the layer will not be damaged at any influence on a surface of a concrete design. Besides, any surface of a design is treated including towards to leakage, and damp concrete that gives the chance to simply repair the leakage in belowground premises: it is not required to open external perimetre.
Fields of application of Penetron® materials : Any concrete monolithic and precast concrete designs which the demands on water penetration are provided to, for example: Tanks. Treatment facilities. Pools. Pump stations. Hydraulic engineering constructions. Tunnels and mines. The bases and dambs. Belowground constructions. Industrial premises.
Application of Penetron® materials gives water resistance to monolithic and precast concrete designs. It prevents water penetration under pressure, protects concrete from influence of acids and alkalis, industrial sewage, mineral oil, sea water, aggressive ground waters, carbonates, chlorides, sulphates, nitrates, and also raises frost resistance of concrete. Features:
- become a concrete component.
- deeply get into concrete filling capillaries and cracks.
- can be put on the interior and exterior surfaces alike.
- if the surface is damaged waterproofing and protective properties do not vary.
- effective even under direct high hydrostatic pressure.
- simple in use.
- more effective and less expensive than well-known analogues.
- gaz and vapor permiability of concrete remains.
- special protection is not demanded during construction jobs.
- resist to influence of chemical substances, freezing and thawing.
- can be used on old, and new concrete surfaces.
- are applied on damp or green concrete surface.
- protect both concrete, and steel armature.
- are not toxic.
- are certificated for use with potable water by Federal Agency on Protection of environment (USA).
