A dry shake crystalline waterproofing treatment that transforms new flatwork concrete into a permanent waterproofing barrier.
Krystol Broadcast is troweled in during the final finishing to become an integral part of the concrete that replaces the need for conventional membrane waterproofing systems. Its unique Krystol technology reacts with moisture to form insoluble needle-shaped crystals that fill capillary pores and micro-cracks in the concrete and block the pathways for water and waterborne contaminants.
Unlike other crystalline solutions that react with free lime that eventually depletes over time, Krystol Broadcast chemically reacts with water and unhydrated cement particles. Any moisture introduced over the lifespan of the concrete will initiate crystallization, ensuring permanent waterproofing and watertightness protection.
