Hydrophobizers

Enhancing Durability with Hydrophobizing Agents in Construction Materials

Our range of hydrophobizing agents—Calcium Stearate, Sodium Oleate, and Siloxane—provides effective water repellency to construction materials, significantly enhancing their durability and protecting against moisture damage. These agents are specially formulated to meet the demands of various construction applications, from concrete and mortars to plasters and renders.

Applications of Hydrophobizing Agents

Concrete and Mortar Additives

Hydrophobizing agents are used to enhance the water repellency of concrete and mortars, which improves their resistance to freeze-thaw cycles and chemical degradation, extending the life of the structure.

Plaster and Render Protection

Applying these agents to plasters and renders significantly increases their resistance to water, making them suitable for both internal and external use, particularly in climates prone to heavy rainfalls or in buildings where high moisture resistance is crucial.

Facade Treatments

Ideal for protecting external facades from weather-related damage. These agents help maintain the aesthetic and structural integrity of buildings by preventing water absorption, thus reducing the risk of dampness-related issues.

Masonry Conservation

Used in the conservation of historical structures, these agents provide an invisible protection that helps preserve the original appearance while offering defense against environmental factors.

Integrating our hydrophobizing agents into your construction formulations ensures superior durability, enhanced moisture resistance, and improved long-term performance of building materials. By choosing the right agent for your specific application, you can achieve optimal protection and longevity for your construction projects, aligning with modern demands for sustainable and resilient building solutions.

Our technical experts in three European lab centers of excellence are ready to assist you in selecting the ideal hydrophobizing agents for your specific formulation needs.
