CWS InSeal

LEAK-FREE WATERPROOFING. ALWAYS!

Internal Spray Applied Waterproofing

CWS InSeal is a concrete waterproofing material, based on the family of sodium silicates. It is applied by spraying onto cured concrete. It waterproofs and protects the concrete from corrosion and chloride/sulphate penetration, by forming a waterproof insoluble gel layer in the concrete matrix, reacting with calcium and water. CWS InSeal will seal static cracks in the concrete and is for use predominantly in indoor areas of low thermal stress.

Why use CWS InSeal?

  • CWS InSeal waterproofs concrete, predominantly in areas of low thermal stress
  • Protects rebar form corrosion through arresting chloride and sulphate ingress
  • Seals static cracks in concrete
  • Increases concrete hardness to around 6 of Mohs Scale
  • Improves the bond of concrete to cementitious materials
  • Non-toxic. Suitable for use with potable water
  • Environmentally safe, non toxic, no VOCs
  • Suitable for ponding water
  • Impervious to scratching, or puncturing. No seaming or bonding issues, as with membranes
  • Does not require a protective screed
  • Simple, single coat application
  • No re-application needed in years to come
  • Cost effective solution
  • Super-fast application for shorter project time, saving labor and cost significantly

Equipmemnt

Apply CWS InSeal with a backpack sprayer (low pressure sprayer), or a motorised pump, depending on the size of the surface to be treated

Super-Fast Application

One person with a backpack sprayer can apply 1000m2 per day and with a motorised pump can apply about 6000m2 per day. Compare this to a membrane where one person can typically apply no more than 100m2 per day

Coverage

The dosage is around 1lt/5m2, depending on the MPa and surface finish of the concrete. In cases of high MPa concretes, where the surface is finished to a smooth result, proper application may only be 1lt/6m2 whilst, low MPa concretes with rougher finish and open pores, may use about 1lt/4m2
