Drybase Crystalline Active Slurry is a high-performance waterproofing slurry specifically designed for direct application to concrete surfaces. The active crystalline composition creates a penetrating waterproofing solution for concrete walls, floors and structures. The high coverage-per-kilogram of Drybase Crystalline Active Slurry makes it an ideal choice for tanking larger concrete structures.
Once applied to a concrete surface, Drybase Crystalline Active Slurry the active ingredients react with the free-lime and the moisture within the concrete’s capillary tracts to form crystalline complexes. These crystal formations block the capillaries and minor shrinkage cracks in the concrete and prevent moisture ingress.
Concrete is naturally porous. It contains many fine pores and shrinkage cracks, making it susceptible to moisture ingress.
Excessive moisture ingress on concrete structures can lead to structural damage and expensive repairs.
Once applied, the active ingredients in Drybase Crystalline Active Slurry react with free-lime and moisture to form crystal complexes within the concrete.
The treated concrete is now watertight whilst still retaining its vapour-permeability. It is resistant to both active and passive water pressure.
Due to its durable nature, Drybase Crystalline Active Slurry protects concrete against seawater, waste water, ground water and various chemical solutions. It is also approved for use in contact with potable water, which makes it suitable for use waterproofing structures such as water towers, reservoirs and water storage tanks.
Drybase Crystalline Active Slurry can be applied to both new concrete or aged concrete and is effective on both the pressure and non-pressure face of a structure (i.e. both positive and negative water-pressure).
Typical Areas of Application Include:
Basement waterproofing
Waterproofing pile heads and pile caps
Construction joints
Waterproofing contiguous piling and diaphragm walls
Sewage treatment plants
Bridges
Car park waterproofing
Concrete slabs (floor, roof, balcony etc…)
Water-retaining structures
Swimming pools
Channels
Drybase Crystalline Active Slurry can be used as a waterproofing solution for new concrete floor slabs.
It can be ‘sprinkled’ as a dry powder to wet concrete slabs after the initial set.
Drybase Crystalline Active Tanking Slurry can then be power-trowelled into the surface, waterproofing the slab.
Good morning,
Thank you for your question.
Drybase® Crystalline Active Slurry is a cementitious, ready mixed, in-depth waterproofer for concrete surfaces only. A benefit of using this product is that it is cement based, meaning its alkalinity discourages mould growth.
I hope this helps, and if you would like to contact our technical team directly to discuss this project further, please call us on 01403210204.

What is the coveridge of one 25kg bag on a floor
Good afternoon,
Thank you for your question.
The coverage rates for the Drybase Crystalline Active Slurry varies, depending on the water pressure the slab is under, and the surface roughness, please see the below.
Positive or negative water pressure, dry sprinkle, brush or spray in 1 coat - 1.2 kg/m².
Moisture/no water pressure, brush or spray in 1 coat - 0.8 kg/m²
I hope this helps.
Kind regards,
