The benefits of Penetron Admix for construction projects
The construction industry in general is under constant pressure to build more sustainably. This means finding ways to use cost efficient materials and build within given timelines. One way to achieve this is by using waterproofing admixtures, such as Penetron Admix.
PENETRON ADMIX is a non-toxic crystalline waterproofing admixture in powder form that is added to new concrete during batching. PENETRON ADMIX provides projects with waterproof and durable concrete that has the ability to self-heal and seal cracks that develop during the lifetime of the concrete.
ADVANTAGES
- Resists extreme hydrostatic pressure from either positive or negative surface of the concrete slab
- Becomes an integral part of the concrete
- Highly resistant to aggressive chemicals
- Can seal hairline cracks up to 1/51” (0.5 mm)
- Allows concrete to breathe
- Non-toxic (NSF 61 certified for potable water applications)
- Less expensive than traditional methods
- Permanent
- Improves durability of concrete
- Permeability Reducing Admixture for Hydrostatic conditions (PRAH)
- Zero VOC – PENETRON powdered products contain zero volatile organic compounds and are safe for use both outdoors and in confined indoor spaces
- Exceeds requirements of ASTM C494-S (Specific Performance Admixtures)
