Application

To provide waterproofing continuity across the top of structural foundation surfaces such pad foundations, pile caps, ground beam etc., where active CETCO waterproofing

membranes cannot be installed.

Description

VOLSEAL 200 is a single component, surface applied material, which waterproofs and protects concrete in-depth. It consists of grey Portland cement, specially treated quartz sand and a compound of active chemicals.


Features and benefits:

  • Supplied in powder form in 25 kg tubs, and needs to be mixed with clean water prior to application.
  • When VOLSEAL 200 is applied to concrete surfaces, the active chemicals combine with the free lime and moisture present in the capillary track to form insoluble crystalline complexes. These crystals block the capillaries and minor shrinkage cracks in the concrete to prevent any further water ingress, even under hydrostatic pressure.
  • In addition to waterproofing the structure, VOLSEAL 200 protects concrete against seawater, wastewater, aggressive ground water and certain chemical solutions. VOLSEAL 200 is not a decorative material.
