TYPE B WATERPROOFING
SYSTEMS
Kryton products for waterproofing concrete, featuring Krystol, can be added directly to the concrete mixture or applied to the surface of the concrete. Once added, Krystol chemically reacts with water and unhydrated cement particles, forming insoluble needle-like crystals. These crystals fill capillary pores and micro-cracks in concrete, effectively blocking water and dirt pathways created by capillaries and small cracks.
Krystol provides the concrete structure with self-sealing capability. If water is reintroduced into the concrete, whether by raising hydrostatic pressure or through cracks, Krystol will resume further crystallization to provide permanent waterproof protection. Krystol continues to work throughout the life of the concrete.
Kryton’s innovative range of concrete waterproofing products, powered by Krystol technology, enables you to incorporate quality, durability, and cost-effectiveness directly into your concrete structures.
Krystol waterproofing systems create completely watertight concrete structures that self-seal and can withstand hydrostatic pressure throughout their lifespan. Krystol technology can save you money by reducing labor and maintenance costs while ensuring the durability of your structures.
