​​​AquaShield contains chemicals that react with water to form millions of needle-like crystals. These crystals grow and fill the capillary pores and micro-cracks in the concrete, blocking the flow of water. As time passes and stresses form new cracks, any incoming moisture causes the crystals to reactivate, ensuring continuous waterproofing over the years. ​

AquaShield features waterproofing built directly into the concrete – simply by pouring the concrete and waterproofing all in one step. Along with a variety of structural benefits is superior protection with a system that is designed to last the life of the concrete and also increase jobsite productivity. Build faster with fewer hassles and get the project out of the ground sooner than anticipated.
