WATERPROOFING MEMBRANE

The TECHNO-Proof is a waterproofing membrane  for joints against water consisting of the system components TECHNO-Proof membrane 

 and TECHNO-Proof ADH adhesive. The TECHNO-Proof-SYSTEM is applied externally to the surface or joint to be sealed on both new and renovated structures. The main use of the TECHNO-Proof membrane is the sealing of joints in precast concrete element walls against water.

The sealing of these joints through internally-located seal systems (e.g. waterstop, hydrophilic rubber, injection hoses) is considered extremely problematic for various reasons.

On one hand, problems are frequently encountered during concreting, especially around the base slab/wall joint. On the other hand, the water can run around the internal seal by climbing up the joint between precast concrete shell and in-situ concrete core, and then penetrate the structure through any existing cracks in the in-situ concrete.This is where we recommended the use of the TECHNO-Proof membrane as an external seal against water, which prevents general penetration of water into the structure.

• One step application
• Application to damp and cold substrates is possible
• Sealing of construction and dilatation joints where movement is expected
• No danger of water infiltration through core concrete cracks
