We’d like to point to the impact of moisture on concrete
longevity.
Moisture and moisture vapour carry contaminants – reactive
chloride, nitrate and sulphide ions, for example – which encourage premature
deterioration of the concrete and the reinforcing steel.
Once early deterioration has commenced, cracking will worsen, providing
increased avenues for moisture entrance into the structure.
A cycle of deterioration sets in, and the structure’s service life is reduced.
Hence the need for waterproofing treatment. Protecting the concrete is not
optional.

Hydrogel treatments IMMOBILISE moisture. This means moisture doesn’t enter, and moisture doesn’t move around. It also means the existing moisture stays, as a hydrogel, within the matrix of the concrete.
Concrete waterproofing hydrogel treatments are ideal for exposed concrete structures, protecting against the demands of the environment and also against contaminants that may be brought by traffic and loads in the course of the structure’s usage.

For NEW concrete infrastructure, consider Aquron 300 waterproofing ADMIXTURE – protect the concrete from day one!
For EXISTING decks, for proactive maintenance and to arrest premature deterioration, SPRAY-APPLIED Aquron 2000 or Aquron 7000 can play a vital role.
