Procor® is a two component, synthetic rubber, liquid waterproofing membrane. It cures to form
a resilient, fully bonded elastomeric sheet. Procor® will protect structures against water and
water vapour ingress. At a single coat thickness of 1.5mm, Procor® will resist a hydrostatic
head in excess of 20m when fully loaded. Damp surface tolerant, can be applied to green
concrete and damp to touch surfaces.

Procor® 10: Trowelling grade for horizontal surfaces. Also recommended for vertical
application at temperatures less than 12°C.

Supercast SW10 and SW20


The Supercast SW range consists of swellable waterstops;
Supercast SW formed sections, Supercast SWX gun-applied
paste and Supercast SW adhesive. Supercast SW sections are
made from high performance synthetic elastomeric strips. The
swelling action of the Supercast SW range is the result of
contact between water and hydrophilic groups which are an
intimate part of the Supercast SW polymeric structure. These
hydrophilic groups are not subject to extraction and loss of
swelling performance by prolonged or repeated wetting.
Expansion of the waterstop creates a positive pressure against
the faces of the concrete joint, thus preventing water passing through the joint.

AT System

AT System
AT System waterstops have been specially developed for water excluding and
retaining structures such as basements, reservoirs, sewage treatment works, etc. The
AT System is an important advance in concrete joint protection which combines
Active Technology with the conventional mechanical properties of PVC waterstops.
Conventional PVC waterstops work by the normal action of the concrete shrinking
away from the joint and against one face of the ribs or bulbs of the waterstop. This
creates positive pressure on the rib or bulb causing a “valve action” to resist water
ingress. However, this shrinkage movement also forms an inevitable void on the
opposite face of the rib or bulb which can allow water under high pressure to track
along the waterstop searching for a path to bypass the waterstop. Subsequent
cyclical movement of the joint can compound the problem resulting in further
leakage. AT System waterstops mechanical properties prevent water ingress by the
same valve action but also actively seal the void around the rib or bulb to stop water
bypassing or migrating. The hollow core of the bulb deforms to control the expansive
forces to prevent damage to the concrete.

is cast centrally in the comcrete to resist internal and external water pressure.

Serviseal®
Serviseal®
Waterproofing
Serviseal® is a passive external PVC waterstop system manufactured in a range of sizes for
protecting joints in concrete basements and sub-structures. Serviseal external flexible
waterstop systems have a proven design using four T shaped ribs for solid embedment in
insitu concrete which create a valve action to seal the water path, and are suitable for
horizontal and vertical applications. Being cast into the outside water face prevents the ingress
of moisture and protects the outer layer of reinforcement from corrosion. Location on the
outside face of a concrete member also promotes better compaction of the concrete around
the ribs of the Serviseal since it is free from reinforcement congestion and the weight of wet
concrete makes consolidation easier.
Seviseal can be used for non suspended slabs in water retaining structures such as reservoirs,
swimming pools and sewage treatment works.

Servistrip® AH205 is a hydrophilic solid rubber strip that exceeds the performance of thinly

between new and existing concrete sections to provide a highly effective watertight seal. The
rate of swelling is controlled to allow installation and exposure to rain. The swelling pressure
does not cause spalling or damage to freshly poured concrete before it has time to reach its
design strength. The simple, solid form also allows it to be used in difficult locations such as
diaphragm and secant piled walls. Also concrete surfaces where other sealing methods would
be impractical.

Waterstop
Waterstop
Waterstop is a sodium bentonite based material, designed to stop water infiltration through
insitu concrete construction joints. Sodium bentonite swells when in contact with water,
forming an impermeable barrier. This swelling property allows the Waterstop to form a
permanent pressure seal within the concrete joint, thus eliminating water migration over or
along the waterstop. The key to the products effectiveness is its 75% sodium bentonite
content, which provides superior expansion, to seal and fill voids and cracks within the
concrete. Waterstop is an active bentonite based waterstop, that is designed to replace passive
PVC / Rubber type waterbars, thereby eliminating the requirement of special pieces and seam
welding. Waterstop is manufactured in light - weight, flexible coils that are easily installed in
hot or cold weather conditions, by a single worker.

Hydrotite
Hydrotite
Hydrotite is the original expanding rubber used in a variety of applications for sealing joints
against water penetration. Initially developed for sealing segmental concrete tunnel linings,
Hydrotite is a compound of polychloroprene (Neoprene) and hydrophilic resin, which expands
when in contact with water, providing a self-sealing and easy to
use alternative to traditional methods. Ideal for water retaining
structures to achieve watertight insitu concrete joints.

Cementitious Coating 851

Cementitious Coating 851


Cementitious Coating 851 is a two component cementitious
modified polymer coating which cures to form a hard, highly
alkaline film with a degree of elasticity. It totally waterproofs
concrete, stone, brickwork and blockwork even when
subjected to negative and positive hydrostatic pressure tested
at 10 bar. The standard 2mm thickness gives equivalent
waterproofing to 1m of good quality concrete. This versatile
coating has a range of applications including use in clean
(DWI Aproved) and dirty water, basement waterproofing,
tunnels and underground structures. It is widely specified for
chloride protection and has an excellent international track
record.
