Penetron® cementitious capillary waterproofing products are formulations consisting of common cement, quartz sand (of special grade) and multiple activating chemicals that provide the most effective permanent concrete waterproofing.
Penetron®'s versatility and effectiveness have been demonstrated across a wide spectrum of critical applications, including nuclear reactors, chemical storage and mass transit tunneling. We adhere to the highest standards of environmental and ecological compliance, reflected in the numerous aquarium and reservoir projects in the company's portfolio.
ISO 9001-200 certification
The Penetron® System
Penetron®'s waterproofing effect is achieved by the reaction of the various chemical components contained in the solutions when combined within the concrete matrix. The compound penetrates deep into the capillary tracts of the concrete by pressure of osmosis and forms crystals that completely seal the capillaries and shrinkage cracks to drive out moisture. The process works with or against the pressure of water.
In the absence of moisture, Penetron® components lie dormant. Should moisture recur at any time, the chemical action and sealing process repeats itself automatically and advances even more deeply into the concrete. Penetron® chemicals will continuously seal and reseal due to their chemical nature. Crystalline growth from capillary waterproofing has been measured as deep as nearly 1 meter from the point of application. Penetron® is 100% compatible with concrete, brick, mortar and stone.
Used for waterproofing and chemical protection above and below ground level. Applied in slurry form.
Used for filling cracks and covers at joints, and to fill form-tie holes, honey-combed areas and routed out cracks in mortar consistency.
Forms a rapid setting compound capable of stopping severe leaks under pressure.
An additive mixed into new concrete at the time of batching for complete integral waterproofing.
