Concrete admixtures are substances added to the concrete mix or applied to surfaces to modify the material's performance.

‍

‍

Thus, they adapt to specific project needs. They are used to:

‍

‍

• Improve the workability of the mix
• Increase adhesion and elasticity
• Reduce water absorption
• Prevent plastic shrinkage
• Increase chemical and mechanical resistance
• Ensure the impermeability of the concrete

Additives are divided into various categories based on their function:

‍

‍

• Waterproofing agents: protect against water infiltration and aggressive agents.
• Plasticizers and superplasticizers: improve workability by reducing the amount of water needed.
• Accelerators or retarders: modify setting and hardening times.
• Anticorrosives: protect the steel reinforcements inside the concrete.
• Expansive agents: reduce the risk of cracking due to shrinkage.

The DRYBOXSYSTEM® system is a solution that combines several products to protect concrete structures. These products help stop water and aggressive agents. It is not just an additive, but a multi-component approach. This ensures complete waterproofing of structures.

The main components of the DRYBOXSYSTEM® include:

‍

‍

• Crystallizing additives for concrete
  Added directly into the concrete mixer, these products react with free lime to form insoluble crystals that capillary seal the cement matrix.
• Tapes and waterstops for structural and recovery joints
  Essential for ensuring watertightness at critical connection points between successive castings or between precast elements.
• Waterproofing mortars and sealants
  For the treatment of casting joints, cracks or plant crossing points.
• Two-component elastic membranes
  Like DRYLASTIC, specific for surfaces subject to cracking or movement, ideal for terraces, pools, balconies and swimming pools.
• Primers and adhesion promoters
  To ensure optimal adhesion on challenging surfaces such as ceramic, marble, and aged coatings.

Compared to using individual concrete admixtures, an integrated system like DRYBOXSYSTEM® offers several benefits:

‍

‍

✅ Assured Compatibility Between Products
Compatibility between different products used in a construction project is crucial for ensuring a high-quality and durable final result. Our range of solutions is designed to work synergistically, ensuring that each component integrates seamlessly with the others. This approach not only simplifies the material selection process but also reduces the risk of incompatibilities that could compromise the effectiveness of the entire system.

‍

‍

✅ Comprehensive Solution for All Critical Areas (Foundations, Joints, Exposed Surfaces)
We offer complete solutions for construction projects, ensuring foundation stability, joint sealing, and protection of surfaces exposed to weather conditions.

‍

‍

✅ Enhanced Long-Term Resistance
Durability is a primary factor to consider when selecting construction materials. Our products have been tested and designed to withstand the test of time, even in adverse environmental conditions. We utilize advanced technologies to ensure long-lasting structures and reduce the need for maintenance.

‍

‍

✅ Simplified Waterproofing Design
Our waterproofing systems streamline the design process, offering intuitive solutions and technical support for effective protection.

‍

‍

✅ Reduced Risk of On-Site Errors
Our products minimize installation errors through clear instructions and intuitive design, enhancing safety, precision, and quality in the construction process.

‍

‍

In summary, our proposal ensures compatibility between the various products. It also offers integrated and sustainable solutions.

These solutions help overcome the challenges of modern construction. Furthermore, they improve efficiency and quality of work on construction sites. This is the DRYBOXSYSTEM®.
