Krystol Waterstop Treatment™
Krystol Waterstop Treatment is a cementitious crystalline slurry that is applied to horizontal and vertical
construction joints to provide additional waterproofing protection, and protect rebar from corrosion.
Krystol Waterstop Treatment is used in conjunction with Krystol Waterstop Grout and/or Krytonite, as
part of the Krystol Waterstop System, wherever water penetration through static concrete-to-concrete
joints is a concern. Krystol Waterstop Treatment can also be used by itself as a dampproofing treatment.
Krystol Waterstop Treatment contains Krystol technology. When applied to concrete, Krystol chemically
reacts with water and un-hydrated cement particles to form insoluble needle-shaped crystals that fill
capillary pores and micro-cracks in the concrete and block the pathways for water and waterborne
contaminants. Any moisture introduced over the lifespan of the concrete will initiate crystallization,
ensuring permanent waterproofing protection.
