Data Center E-Book

Exclusive to North America

Data centers are engineered for continuous operation, but some of the most overlooked threats to long-term durability lie below ground. Discover how aggressive soils, groundwater, sustained moisture, and hydrostatic pressure can affect the concrete that supports critical infrastructure.

Read or download our latest e-book and discover why protecting a data center starts beneath the surface.

Protecting Data Center Concrete in Corrosive Soil Environments

In corrosive soil environments with sulphates, chlorides, acidic groundwater, hydrostatic pressure, or aggressive moisture conditions, concrete permeability becomes a major risk factor. This can shorten the service life of concrete structures and lead to costly, hard-to-access repairs.

As digital infrastructure continues to expand, developers face pressure to deliver larger facilities faster. This is especially challenging in areas where soil and groundwater conditions may be aggressive or unpredictable, creating durability challenges.

Read how Xypex products help reduce permeability, limit water ingress, and protect against exposure to aggressive chemicals.

Marie-Victorin Park Multisport Complex

The City of Saint-Bruno-de-Montarville built a new multi-sport complex at Marie-Victorin Park. The project aimed to meet growing community demand for modern, safe recreational facilities.

Xypex was specified, including Patch’n Plug, Megamix II, Admix C-500 NF and Concentrate to address the elevator pit, honeycombing, surface defects, and joint details.

Integrating Xypex’s crystalline waterproofing products reduced reliance on surface membranes while maintaining concrete integrity, durability, and waterproofing.

LIDL Logistics Center Compressor Room Waterproofing

The compressor room in the LIDL Logistics Center is a key facility that directly affects equipment safety. However, the project faced challenging waterproofing conditions, as the concrete is consistently exposed to moisture, oils, and grease.

To maintain high waterproofing conditions, approximately 700 m² was treated with Xypex Concentrate and Modified for long-term resistance, protection and durability in industrial settings.
