3 Products, 1 Solution to Concrete Corrosion

Vanguard Ag protected six manure tanks from aggressive chemical attack using a targeted 3-part Xypex system:

1. Concentrate for waterproofing

2. Modified for high-stress zones

3. Patch’n Plug for crack repair

Xypex’s self-sealing technology and long-term durability boosted chemical resistance for biogas production, while combating corrosion from manure, sulfide, and methane.

Stronger Concrete. Smarter Sustainability

When the City of Grand Junction expanded its wastewater treatment plant, it needed a concrete solution that could withstand aggressive wastewater chemicals and ensure long-term performance. By incorporating Xypex Admix C-500 directly into the concrete mix, the city achieved greater chemical resistance, long-term durability, fewer leaks and repairs, and reduced maintenance costs.

Solving Parking Problems while Preserving Heritage

The new Mimar Sinan Underground Parkade adds 956 spaces across four levels. Built at sea level, the structure faced severe hydrostatic pressure and chloride-rich conditions. Engineers turned to Xypex:

1. Admix C to eliminate waterproofing membranes

2. Concentrate with Patch’n Plug to seal and repair concrete. 

The result, long-term durability, low maintenance, and lasting protection. See how this high-stakes project stayed watertight under pressure.

Blacklick Creek Sanitary Interceptor Sewer

The  Blacklick Creek Sanitary Interceptor Sewer faced extreme hydrostatic pressure and high chloride exposure. Engineers employed Xypex Admix C-Series and Concentrate, which integrate into the concrete to form a permanent, self-sealing barrier. Eliminating the need for conventional membranes. Xypex enhances the structure’s durability, reduces maintenance requirements, and lowers lifecycle costs. Explore this project to enhance your projects built under extreme conditions.

IKEA Facility

For its new 35,000 m² facility in Bandung, IKEA selected Xypex Admix C-Series as the stand-alone waterproofing solution for critical infrastructure. Xypex was chosen for its reliability and ease of integration at the batching stage. On-site dosing simplified logistics, reduced labor needs, and proved especially valuable during early COVID-19 restrictions.
