Hydragard S

Siloxane dampcourse & façade waterproofing sealer.

Uses

HYDRAGARD S is used to prevent water entry into concrete,
concrete block, brick, and sandstone building materials due to
rain. By preventing water entry, the treated material will not show
mould growth or darken in colour. Impregnated walls are able to
resist water entry from torrential rain and up to 100km/h winds.
HYDRAGARD S is also effective against ponding water on a car
park or patio roof deck. It is not suitable, however, for waterproofing
structures subject to hydrostatic pressure such as backfilled walls.
Untreated walls would be completely saturated in such conditions.
HYDRAGARD S is also used in the prevention of rising damp in
buildings with faulty damp or no courses.
