Can Concrete Truly Be Made Waterproof?

Many products make bold claims about making concrete waterproof. But can concrete truly be made waterproof using hydrophobic or hydrophilic admixtures?

Concrete is the #1 building material in the world because of its availability and versatility. However, concrete on its own is vulnerable and requires chemical additives to enhance its properties to meet waterproofing and corrosion protection construction standards.

There are quite a few products claiming to provide waterproof concrete, which leads us to how one navigates the differences in these additives.

Over the years, there has been much debate and often confusion on the differences between hydrophobic and hydrophilic concrete.
