Products Used

Delivered in pre-measured soluble bags, PENETRON ADMIX SB was added to the concrete mix during batching. Once part of the concrete mix, the active ingredients in the admixture react in a catalytic reaction to the moisture in concrete. This reaction generates a non-soluble crystalline formation throughout the pores and capillary tracts of the concrete. The entire concrete matrix is now impermeable, stopping the penetration of groundwater and moisture from any direction.
