Xypex Quickset is a water-soluble liquid blend of silicates, neutralizers and penetrating agents specially compounded to harden, dustproof and seal the surfaces of fresh or newly cured concrete floors. Xypex Quickset penetrates into the capillaries of the concrete substrate and chemically reacts with the free lime and calcium carbonate to form a hard, insoluble gel within the pores, thus closing off the small voids. Quickset provides superior hardening and a dustproof finish.

Repsol Fuel Station

São Paulo, Brazil

Xypex Quickset, a clear, surface-hardener, was applied over the concrete slab of this fuel station.

Deichtorhallen

Hamburg, Germany

Situated on the outskirts of the Hamburg dockside, the Deichtorhallen is one of the city’s most famous landmarks. The basement is a storage area for paintings, photographs and other highly sensitive art objects. Because of the proximity of the buildings to the seaside, humidity and water penetration became a problem in this over 100-year-old structure. Water was penetrating through the foundation slab and through cracks in the wall to such a degree that cracks formed in the interior zone. Xypex ConcentrateModifiedPatch'n Plug and Quickset were used successfully to address the problem. Upon further review, the basement is once again a dry storage area for art collections.
