    • Easy and safe to use; no additional labor required

Hycrete W500 is a concrete waterproofing admixture that significantly reduces water ingress through concrete. Ordinary concrete absorbs water and dissolved salts through its network of pores, leading to water infiltration and corrosion of steel reinforcement. Hycrete W500 reduces absorption and forms a protective coating around steel reinforcement. Less water and fewer chlorides are able to penetrate the concrete and the reinforcement has enhanced protection from corrosion.

Protect your project by using a concrete waterproofing admixture that offers superior performance to crystalline and stearate admixtures.  Keep water out of concrete.
