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.
