Description

Passivhaus BrickSeal and Its Key Benefits

Passivhaus BrickSeal is a cutting-edge product designed to enhance the energy efficiency and durability of brick structures in buildings. Developed with the principles of the Passivhaus standard in mind, BrickSeal is an essential component in ensuring a water-tight building envelope, reducing heat loss, and providing superior protection against the elements.

In construction, achieving airtightness and moisture resistance is crucial, especially for buildings aiming to meet the stringent energy efficiency standards set by the Passivhaus Institute. Passivhaus BrickSeal addresses these needs by offering a specialized solution for sealing brick walls and other masonry surfaces, ensuring that buildings are both energy-efficient and resilient against environmental stressors.

Key Benefits of Passivhaus BrickSeal

Enhanced waterproofing

Passivhaus BrickSeal is designed to create a water-proof but breathable seal over brick and masonry surfaces, reducing air leakage and improving energy efficiency. By minimizing air gaps and leaks, BrickSeal helps maintain consistent indoor temperatures, contributing to lower energy costs and a more sustainable building design.

Superior Moisture Protection:

Moisture ingress can lead to mold, rot, and other structural issues. Passivhaus BrickSeal provides a protective barrier that prevents water from penetrating brick surfaces, reducing the risk of moisture-related damage. This is especially important in climates with high humidity or frequent rain.

Improved Durability:

BrickSeal adds a layer of protection to brick structures, enhancing their durability and resistance to wear and tear. This additional protection can extend the lifespan of the building envelope, reducing the need for costly repairs and maintenance.

Environmental Sustainability:

As part of the Passivhaus suite of products, BrickSeal aligns with sustainability goals by contributing to energy-efficient building practices. Its use in construction supports the broader movement toward reducing carbon emissions and achieving net-zero energy use.

Compatibility with Other Building Components:


BrickSeal is compatible with a wide range of construction materials and systems, allowing it to integrate seamlessly with other components of a Passivhaus building. This flexibility makes it a versatile solution for various construction projects, from residential homes to commercial buildings.

In summary, Passivhaus BrickSeal is a versatile and innovative product designed to improve the energy efficiency, durability, of brick structures. Its key benefits include enhanced airtightness, superior moisture protection, and alignment with environmental sustainability goals. By incorporating BrickSeal into building projects, construction professionals can ensure a higher level of performance and contribute to a more sustainable and resilient built environment.



PassivHaus Brickseal masonry protection paste is a deeply penetrating water-repellent paste for the protection of masonry. The thick, white paste is ready to use and applied by brush roller or airless spray. It penetrates into the brickwork, masonry, mortar and concrete, where it will cure to a colourless, natural finish, lasting for a minimum of 15 years. Passivhaus brick seal paste can help improve the energy efficiency of dwellings by reducing heat loss.


Features and benefits:

  • Highly concentrated (25% active content) paste, which results in a highly durable water-repellent protection.
  • Brick seal paste protects the surface against frost damage, micro-organisms, while remaining vapour breathable.
  • Not to be used on non-porous substrates such as marble.
  • Paste changes from white to transparent and creates the hydrophobic layer on the mineral substrate.
  • Rainproof and weather resistant after approx. three hours after application.
  • Surface remains vapour permeable.
  • One coat usually sufficient.
  • High surface penetration.
  • Results in high protection against frost/thaw cycles.
  • Strong pearl effect.
  • No risk for stains on glass and bluestone.
  • Solvent-free.
  • Highly UV stable.
