- Construction
Our range of hydrophobic agents – calcium stearate, sodium oleate and siloxane – provide effective water repellency to building materials, significantly improving their durability and protecting them against moisture damage. These agents are specially formulated to meet the demands of various construction applications, from concrete and mortars to plasters and plasters.
Hydrophobic agents are used to increase the water repellency of concrete and mortars, improving their resistance to freeze-thaw cycles and chemical degradation, extending the life of the structure.
The application of these agents to plasters and plasters significantly increases their water resistance, making them suitable for both indoor and outdoor use, especially in climates prone to heavy rainfall or in buildings where high moisture resistance is crucial.
Ideal for protecting exterior 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 moisture-related problems.
Used in the preservation of historic structures, these agents provide invisible protection that helps preserve their original appearance while offering defense against environmental factors.
Integrating our hydrophobic agents into your building formulas ensures superior durability, increased moisture resistance, and better 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, in line with modern demands for sustainable and resilient building solutions.
Our technical experts at three European laboratory centres of excellence are ready to help you select the ideal hydrophobic agents for your specific formulation needs.
