Xypex Crystalline Technology

The crystalline nature of the Xypex waterproofing system provides many application advantages over traditional barrier products.

• Xypex does not require a dry surface; in fact, a wet surface is necessary.
• Xypex does not require dry weather to be applied.
• Xypex does not require costly surface priming or leveling prior to application.
• It cannot puncture, tear, or come apart at the seams.
• It does not require protection during backfilling or during placement of steel, wire mesh or other materials.
• It can be applied on either side of a concrete surface – the negative or the positive (water pressure) side.
• Xypex does not require sealing, lapping and finishing of seams at corners, edges or between membranes.
• It is less costly to apply than most other methods.

In more than one hundred countries, the proprietary crystalline waterproofing products of Xypex Chemical Corporation are stocked, sold and supported by a worldwide network of distributors and licensees. The crystalline technology that makes Xypex so uniquely effective in waterproofing, protecting and enhancing concrete, was developed in Vancouver in 1969. Since then, in both hemispheres, in every climatic challenge, and in widely varying construction situations, our technology has been tested and proven.
