Waterproof Concrete Bronze

Heidelberg Materials UK Variant:

Ready-mixed concrete designed for structural waterproofing in civil engineering applications.

Jump to:
Website

Application

Waterproof concrete is ideal for preventing either water ingress or water egress in residential, industrial, and commercial projects.

Applications include:

  • Structural waterproofing in civil engineering projects.
  • Basements.
  • Lift pits.
  • Concrete facades.
  • Residential and industrial buildings such as housing.
  • Commercial and leisure facilities including swimming pools.
  • Engineered structures such as retaining walls and tunnel shafts.

Description

Ready-mixed concrete solution, specially developed for structural waterproofing in civil engineering. It incorporates advanced admixture technology from Sika® to reduce permeability and enhance durability.

Available in three variants:

  • Bronze: using concrete pore blocking admixture, available as a liquid or powder. The powder is a combined water-resisting and HRWR/ Superplasticising admixture, used to enhance the workability and reduce the permeability of concrete.
  • Silver: waterproofing integrated into the concrete. Liquid water penetration is stopped by the structure itself and cannot entirely pass through into the structure.
  • Gold: All the benefits of the Silver offering, plus SikaProof® A+ fully bonded membrane.

Features and benefits:

  • Integral waterproofing solution.
  • High range water reduction for higher density, durability and strength performance.
  • Reduced water penetration under hydrostatic pressure.
  • Complies with BS 8102, type B integral waterproofing construction.
  • Quality-assured and sustainable with 100% recyclability.
  • Available as pumpable or flowing mix.
