The Right Products

Xypex Admix for New Concrete Construction

Xypex Admix is the preferred choice for installing Xypex Crystalline Technology into new concrete structures for water treatment plants. Because Xypex Admix is blended into the mix at the time of batching, it becomes an integral part of the entire concrete matrix, reducing the potentially damaging effects of water penetration and chemical attack. Flexibility in application means Xypex Admix can be installed in pre-cast elements, cast-in-place structures and added to shotcrete concrete mixtures.

Rehabilitation & Repair

Xypex’s coating systems and repair products enable municipalities, engineers and contractors to economically and confidently rehabilitate deteriorating water treatment structures. Xypex Concentrate and Modified are applied as slurry coatings to the surface of the concrete. Unlike other materials that need a dry substrate, Xypex products require a moist surface – conditions typical of existing water treatment structures. Xypex Patch’n Plug, Concentrate Dry-Pac and Megamix products are specifically designed to permanently repair concrete defects such as honeycombs, static cracks and faulty cold or construction joints. These products are also effective at filling tie-holes and sealing around pipe penetrations.
