Water ingress can have various detrimental effects on concrete buildings and structures. It can affect the properties of concrete, such as its strength, durability, and dimensional stability, making it more susceptible to cracking and deformation. To mitigate the impact of water ingress on concrete, proper waterproofing measures should be implemented with the right waterproofing membranes. A waterproofing membrane is a thin layer or barrier designed to prevent the penetration of water and moisture into concrete. MC-Bauchemie India provides a range of Acrylic and Liquid-applied membranes for your project requirements. Their manufactured waterproofing membranes prolong the lifespan of concrete by limiting water ingress and moisture that may intrude and cause rust, rotting, corrosion, structural defects etc.
