Sustainable Concrete Construction Solutions

Waterproof Concrete System  - How Hycrete Works - Video Demo

Concrete is an unrivaled construction material that constantly evolves to meet new demands for value and sustainability. At Hycrete, we are proud to be part of this evolution. We provide concrete producers, builders, designers, and owners with modern concrete construction solutions that deliver cost savings, schedule acceleration, and sustainable construction solutions. We focus on mission-critical subgrade, grade, and super grade water and corrosion protection. Applications include deep foundation slabs and walls, podium and plaza decks, roof, parking and tunnel structures.

Our technologies deliver integral waterproofing that can eliminate the need for external membranes, coatings and sheeting treatments. With our solutions, concrete is batched with Hycrete liquid admixtures to achieve hydrophobic performance (less than 1% absorption under BSI-1881 122). Hycrete Admixtures transform concrete from an open network of capillaries and cracks into an ultra-low absorptivity, waterproof, protective building material. Our Hycrete Elite Waterproofing System consists of Hycrete hydrophobic concrete delivered through local concrete suppliers, construction support, and a comprehensive performance warranty. The key feature of this construction approach is the elimination of the entire external waterproofing process. The benefits are extensive:

  • Simplified design
  • Reduced material demands
  • Increased site mobility
  • Safer conditions
  • Project acceleration

Hycrete concrete provides a high value, sustainable approach to waterproofing and corrosion protection through an evolution in performance concrete construction.

How to Win the War on Global Warming
Hycrete, Inc. was named as one of the leading companies by TIME Magazine that is on the edge of the energy frontier. Hycrete integral waterproofing of concrete reduces the carbon footprint of buildings by eliminating high embodied energy materials while also lowering the amount of nonrenewable waste and toxins used in construction.
