It is specifically designed to tackle dampness and efflorescence with best-in-class performance. This product works as a breathable yet water-tight film, ensuring water and salts cannot penetrate the surface while maintaining substrate integrity.
SmartCare Hydroloc Xtreme withstands up to 5 bars of negative hydrostatic pressure, offering superior waterproofing as per ASTM D7088 standards. Its advanced formulation ensures reliable protection against water ingress, making it an exceptional choice for interior applications.
This innovative solution effectively prevents the recurrence of efflorescence, maintaining clean and durable surfaces over time. Its anti-efflorescence properties help preserve the integrity and appearance of your interior walls.
SmartCare Hydroloc Xtreme performs efficiently on substrates with up to 90% moisture content, providing effective waterproofing in challenging conditions. Its high resistance to moisture makes it a dependable option for damp interiors.
Formulated with a penetrative additive, the coating imparts excellent water-repellent properties to porous construction materials. This enhances the protective capabilities of the substrate, extending the lifespan of interior surfaces.
The product's innovative pore-blocking technology prevents water transport within the substrate, ensuring comprehensive protection against water-related damage. This blocks water from affecting interior walls, maintaining their durability and quality.
