Xypex Line of Products
Responding to diverse, worldwide need, Xypex has expanded its line from flagship coatings to a fully integrated, highly functional family of products, now meeting the specifications and demands of architects, engineers and contractors in more than seventy countries. Coatings, dryshake, additives and accessories, there’s a Xypex product for every project.

• Crystalline Waterproofing
• Capillary Waterproofing
• Concrete Engineered Solutions

The Application Advantages
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.

XYPEX Is Different
The Xypex crystalline system for concrete waterproofing is substantially different from traditional barrier products — like membranes and cementitious coatings. Check these differences:

• Xypex creates a crystalline structure deep within the pores and capillary tracts of the concrete mass to prevent the penetration of water and aggressive chemicals. In contrast, barrier-type products function only at the surface of the concrete.
• Because Xypex is not dependent on surface adhesion to achieve its waterproofing effect, it is resistant to extreme hydrostatic pressure.
• It will seal hairline cracks up to 0.4 mm.
• It is not subject to the deterioration problems encountered by membranes.
• Xypex is permanent and reactivates whenever water is present.
