High embodied carbon<\/h4>\n[vc_column_text css=””]Traditional waterproofing methods, like external membranes, slow construction and increase labor expenses. Application errors can lead to costly rework. KIM eliminates the need for membrane application and all of its related risks and costs – shortening the construction schedule and delivering projects sooner.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner ts_bgcolor=”grey” width=”1\/4″ css=”.vc_custom_1746387951539{padding-top: 20px !important;}”]

Space limitations<\/h4>\n[vc_column_text css=””]Applying a surface membrane often requires leaving space between your foundation and the property line, limiting the use of available land and increasing design complexity. An integral waterproofer like KIM can allow construction right up to the property line.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/4″ css=”.vc_custom_1746387957527{padding-top: 20px !important;}”]

Ineffective surface treatments<\/h4>\n[vc_column_text css=””]Liquid sealers or powdered treatments to industrial floor surfaces are unreliable and ineffective methods for achieving long-term durability and performance. Only the full depth protection afforded by integral technologies such as Hard-cem and KIM can maintain the appearance and service life of your concrete placement.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner ts_bgcolor=”grey” width=”1\/4″ css=”.vc_custom_1746387963863{padding-top: 20px !important;}”]

Unproven technologies<\/h4>\n[vc_column_text css=””]Most strategies for integral waterproofing, durability enhancement and carbon reduction are relatively recent innovations. Their long-term performance is yet to be proven. Kryton\u2019s Krystol technology has been proving itself for more than 50 years and KIM admixture for more than 44 years. You can trust that Kryton products will not let you down.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row ts_bgcolor=”grey” full_width=”stretch_row” equal_height=”yes” css=”.vc_custom_1746389388344{padding-top: 0px !important;padding-bottom: 0px !important;}”][vc_column width=”1\/2″ css=”.vc_custom_1746370892343{margin-right: 20px !important;padding-top: 30px !important;}”]

Reduce Embodied Carbon<\/h2>\n[vc_column_text css=””]<\/p>\n

Kryton’s innovative concrete admixtures significantly lower the carbon footprint of your projects and contribute to a more sustainable built environment.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Hard-Cem<\/strong>\u00a0increases the wear life of concrete by more than double, reducing the need for frequent replacements and repairs. By extending the lifespan of concrete structures, Hard-Cem minimizes the embodied carbon associated with maintenance and reconstruction.<\/p>\n

Con-Fume<\/strong>, a silica fume-based supplementary cementitious material (SCM), allows for a reduction in the amount of carbon-intensive Portland cement required in concrete mixes. This not only decreases the carbon footprint but also enhances the strength and durability of the concrete, contributing to long-lasting structures.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column ts_col_bg_expand=”right” width=”1\/2″ css=”.vc_custom_1746391143866{padding-top: 0px !important;padding-bottom: 0px !important;background-image: url(https:\/\/smartsealed.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/zero-emissions-zev-mandate.jpeg?id=8022) !important;background-position: center !important;background-repeat: no-repeat !important;background-size: cover !important;}”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” equal_height=”yes” css=”.vc_custom_1746389616327{padding-top: 40px !important;padding-bottom: 20px !important;}”][vc_column width=”1\/2″]

Eliminate Unnecessary Materials<\/h2>\n[vc_column_text css=””]<\/p>\n

Achieve optimal waterproofing performance and durability without the need for additional waterproofing layers or surface-applied hardeners, simplifying design and reducing material use.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Krystol Internal Membrane (KIM)\u00a0<\/strong>transforms the concrete itself into a waterproof barrier, eliminating the need for external waterproofing membranes. This reduces material usage, streamlines construction, and ensures long-term waterproofing without ongoing maintenance.<\/p>\n

Krystol Waterstop System<\/strong>\u00a0provides permanent waterproofing for construction joints, penetrations, and tie-holes, eliminating the need for additional materials. The system\u2019s integral nature simplifies the construction process and ensures reliable, long-lasting waterproofing.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css=”.vc_custom_1746372068779{padding-top: 20px !important;}”][vc_column width=”1\/2″]

Develop Climate-Resilient Structures<\/h2>\n[vc_column_text css=””]<\/p>\n

Design buildings that withstand extreme weather conditions and environmental stressors, ensuring longevity and resilience in the face of climate change.<\/strong><\/p>\n

By ensuring that concrete structures remain watertight over their entire lifespan, Krystol Internal Membrane (KIM) protects buildings from water ingress, which can cause structural damage and reduce resilience. Its ability to reactivate and form new crystals whenever water is present ensures continuous protection.<\/p>\n

Krystol Repair Grout<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0Krystol Leak Repair System<\/strong>\u00a0provide permanent repairs for leaks and cracks, maintaining the integrity of structures exposed to harsh conditions. By quickly addressing and resolving these issues, they prevent further damage and extend the life of the structure.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″]
