This premium Sika admixture improves the water-resistance and workability of mortar, concrete, renders, and screeds with a highly concentrated Integral Waterproofer formula that offers up to ten times the efficiency of standard solutions.

Who This Product Is For

This product is designed for construction professionals, builders, and serious DIY users working on projects where moisture resistance is required. It suits both domestic repairs and professional construction work.

The admixture is appropriate for projects involving external rendering, pool and tank linings, below-ground structures, and external pointing where protection against water damage is necessary.

Key Features

• Highly Concentrated Formula: One litre delivers the equivalent performance of 10 litres of standard waterproofers
• Improved Workability: Plasticising agent ensures smoother application and improved consistency
• Freeze-Thaw Resistance: Protects against weather-induced damage for outdoor use
• Reduced Bleeding: Minimises water separation during mixing for uniform composition
• Easy-to-Use Design: Gauged bottle for precise dosing simplifies the mixing process

Practical Applications

This admixture is versatile enough for a range of tasks, delivering dependable results across various environments.

• Pool and tank linings for improved moisture resistance
• External rendering to protect walls from weather exposure
• External pointing to maintain structural integrity
• Below-ground structures requiring added protection against dampness

How This Fits Into a Typical Job

This product is used during the mixing stage of mortar, concrete, renders, or screeds. It is added to the mixing water before combining with dry materials to integrate waterproofing properties throughout the entire mixture.

The admixture becomes part of the material system, providing water resistance from within rather than as a surface treatment. This approach ensures consistent protection throughout the applied material’s thickness.

How to Use

1. Preparation: Shake the bottle well to ensure an even distribution of ingredients
2. Measuring: Squeeze the sides of the bottle to fill the measuring cup as required (25-45ml per 25kg of cement)
3. Mixing Solution: Add the measured amount to a suitable mixing bucket of water and mix thoroughly before combining it with dry materials
4. Dry Mixing: Blend all other ingredients and, for faster and more even mixing, use an electric power mixer until the desired consistency is achieved
5. Application: Apply the mix to the intended surface, ensuring an even spread. Do not add the product directly to dry materials

• Product FAQs

  Q: What surfaces can this product be used on?
  A: It’s suitable for applications such as concrete, mortar, screeds, and renders, particularly in areas requiring water resistance, such as pools, roofs, and below-ground structures.
  Q: Can this be used as a substitute for a damp-proof course?
  A: No, it is not intended to replace a damp-proof course and cannot withstand permanent hydrostatic pressure. Additional measures are required for such applications.
  Q: Does the final application repel water?
  A: While it reduces water permeability, it does not provide a water-repellent finish. Consider using a complementary product from the same range for a repellent coating.
  Q: Is it safe to use with structural concrete?
  A: This product is not recommended for use in structural concrete. It is best suited for non-structural applications.
  Q: How do I measure the correct dosage?
  A: The bottle includes a built-in measuring cup. Simply squeeze the bottle to fill the cup with the required amount, ensuring precise application every time.
  Q: What is the drying time of this product?
  A: The drying time will depend on the overall mix and environmental conditions but generally aligns with the curing time of standard cement-based materials.
