Details

Product Description:

Our Waterproofing Concrete is a specialized ready-mixed concrete designed with integral waterproofing properties to significantly reduce water permeability. By incorporating advanced waterproofing admixtures or utilizing specific mix designs, it provides enhanced resistance to water penetration, ideal for structures requiring water tightness in Malaysia's wet climate. Compliant with MS EN 206 and relevant performance standards.

Key Features:

  • Mix Type: Ready-Mixed Concrete with Integral Waterproofing.
  • Mechanism: Contains specialized admixtures (e.g., pore-blocking, crystalline) that reduce capillary voids and/or react with moisture to form insoluble crystals, blocking water paths. Or uses specific low water-cement ratio mix designs.
  • Properties: Significantly reduced water permeability, lower absorption, enhanced durability against water ingress. Maintains standard compressive strength (specify grade G20-G40+).
  • Compliance: Meets requirements of MS EN 206 and specific project requirements for water tightness (e.g., maximum permeability coefficient).
  • Integral Protection: Waterproofing component is part of the concrete matrix, not just a surface treatment.

Ideal for:

  • Basements, retaining walls, lift pits.
  • Swimming pools, water tanks, reservoirs.
  • Roof slabs and podium decks.
  • Tunnels and underground structures.
  • Bathrooms and wet areas (structural elements).
  • Any concrete structure requiring high resistance to water ingress.

Benefits:

  • Enhanced Water Tightness: Provides a primary barrier against water penetration, reducing reliance on secondary membranes.
  • Improved Durability: Protects reinforcement steel from corrosion and concrete from water-related damage.
  • Reduced Maintenance: Minimizes leaks and associated repair costs over the structure's life.
  • Simplified Construction: Integral waterproofing can sometimes reduce the need for complex external membrane applications.

Order our Waterproofing Concrete for durable, water-resistant structures! Please specify required grade, slump, and performance criteria for water tightness.

Important Notes:

  • While providing high water resistance, good joint design/treatment and crack control are still crucial for overall water tightness.
  • Proper placement, compaction (especially critical), and curing are essential to achieve desired performance.
  • Delivery via concrete mixer truck. Minimum order quantities apply.
