Smart Concrete®: integral waterproofing and durability solutions

10 July 2019

Protect your investment with Kryton’s Smart Concrete® 

Smart Concrete is technologically advanced concrete that automatically responds to its environment. 

Smart Waterproofing 

Only Kryton permanently protects concrete through integral waterproofing using proprietary Krystol® technology. Krystol Internal Membrane™ (KIM®) lowers the permeability of concrete, and is used in place of surface applied waterproofing membranes. Our revolutionary self-sealing technology and comprehensive support system transforms concrete into an ever-vigilant, waterproof barrier. Short term, you’ll shave weeks off construction schedules, cut waterproofing costs and maximize your building footprint. Long term, you’ll avoid leaks and costly callbacks. All of which explain how we can offer an industry-leading 25-year warranty, and how 40-year-old Kryton projects are as dry today as when they were first built. 

Why Krystol Internal Membrane™ (KIM®) Waterproofing Admixture: 

  1. Waterproofing for the life of your structure 
  1. Industry-leading 25-year warranty 
  1. 45 year track record of global projects 

Smart Hardening 

Kryton’s integral hardening admixture, Hard-Cem®, is used to increase abrasion and erosion resistance of concrete. Its unique technology extends concrete wear life up to 6 times, overcomes deficiencies of surface-applied hardeners and allows usage in horizontal, vertical or inclined concrete and shotcrete surfaces. Hard-Cem reduces maintenance costs, improves concrete sustainability, expedites construction schedules and can be used with air-entrained concrete. Kryton solutions harden concrete permanently ensuring structures have significantly extended service lives. 

Why Hard-Cem® Integral Hardening Admixture: 

  1. Abrasion and erosion resistance inside your concrete 
  1. Removes challenges associated with increasing surface durability 
  1. Extends concrete wear life up to 6 times under harsh conditions 

Kryton is the leader in durability solutions, whether you need crystalline waterproofing or concrete hardening technologies. No other products are more permanent in keeping water out of concrete and increasing its erosive-abrasive resistance.
