General Construction Foundation
Specified Worldwide for Foundation Waterproofing and Repair
Construction professionals know that the structural integrity of a foundation can be seriously compromised by hydrostatic pressure and leakages from groundwater. Cracking and joint failure from inadequate waterproofing leads to concrete deterioration and a downward spiral of water infiltration that could affect health and safety from mould and eventually compromise the structure of the building.
The non-toxic bonding technology perfected by Xypex resists water leakage even under extreme hydrostatic pressure. That’s why Xypex Crystalline Technology is often specified for foundation waterproofing based on its extensive track record of protection and repair in thousands of structures worldwide.

Renovation of the Belvédère Swimming Pool
The Belvédère Municipal Swimming Pool in Tunis, Tunisia, underwent a significant renovation in 2024, blending modern infrastructure improvements with the preservation of a historic landmark. Owned by the Tunis Municipality and supervised by the General Directorate of Military Engineering, the project brought together an expert engineering team comprising consulting engineers Mr. Fredj and Mr. Adel Maatouk, Bicotec Ingénierie under the leadership of Rachid Nouri, and BIAT & Veritas Tunisia.
Lascelles Wharf Facility Upgrade
In 1995, the Lascelles Wharf facility in Geelong, Australia, underwent an upgrade to address the degradation of its existing structures. The facility replaced these elements with durable slabs designed to withstand the conditions of a high-wear, chemically aggressive marine environment. The design mix for these slabs incorporated Xypex Admix C-Series to meet the project’s requirements, ensuring strength, durability, and water impermeability.
