Krystol T1 is a surface applied crystalline slurry treatment that transforms new or existing concrete into a permanent waterproofing barrier.
Krystol T1 lowers the permeability of the concrete to protect against the ingress of water and waterborne chemicals. Since it becomes integral to the concrete, it can be applied to either the positive (wet) or negative (dry) side of the water pressure which allows reliable hydrostatic waterproofing protection and remediation for even the most difficult applications.
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 T1 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.
- Permanent concrete waterproofing solution
- Increases reliability and quality control
- Increases durability thereby decreasing building maintenance and repair costs
Krystol T1 is used in both recently poured or decades old concrete. It is the ideal surface applied waterproofing system for foundations & walls, elevated slabs & ramps, parking structures, water tanks & bridge decks.

Krystol T1® Concrete Waterproofing
Krystol T1 is a surface-applied crystalline slurry treatment that transforms new or existing concrete into a permanent waterproofing barrier.
Waterproofing Structuraal Shotcrete Without A Membrane
Structural shotcrete is becoming a preferred concreting method in foundation construction, building tanks, parking garages and many other structures because it’s up to 50% faster than conventional cast in place.
Protect Marine Structures with Crystalline Waterproofing
