Waterproofing admixtures are chemical compounds added to concrete during the mixing stage to make it dense, water-resistant, and durable. These admixtures work by reducing capillary pores and improving the concrete’s resistance to water penetration.
Unlike surface treatments, admixtures provide internal waterproofing, ensuring protection throughout the structure’s lifespan. They help control shrinkage, minimize cracking, and improve the overall performance of concrete in both new construction and repair projects.
