AQURON 300 – Admixture for Concrete Waterproofing
Integral Waterproofing - water borne solution with nil solvent, VOC's or carcinogenic ingredients
Reduces shrinkage, while maintaining early and ultimate compressive, flexural and tensile strengths.
HOW IT WORKS
Concrete Waterproofing Additive
AQURON 300 effectively increases the production of silicate hydrates and enhances the qualities of calcium hydrates during hydration process, and forms AQURON hydrogel formation within the concrete mix.
MIXED IN AT THE READYMIX BATCH PLANT
AQURON 300 is mixed into the concrete mix water at the readymix batch plant at the beginning of the concrete mix. Dosage rate is 6.5ml per kg of cement (approx 2L per m3). Being a water borne solution with nil solvent, VOC's or carcinogenic ingredients, makes AQURON 300 easy and safe to use.
Key benefits
Integral Waterproofing
All “free moisture” is held in the unique AQURON hydrogel formation, this entirely prevents free migration of moisture & ingress of detrimental contaminations into concrete
Enhances strength and reduces shrinkage
AQURON 300 additive reduces shrinkage and slabcurl to a minimum, while improving density, anti-dusting, and surface hardness. Cement particles are more effectively “saturated” by the AQURON 300 mix water and this subsequently increases the quantity of hydration products per cement particle, optimising achieved strengths, and contributing to a significant drying shrinkage compensation.Reducing drying shrinkage (and consequently slab curl etc.) is a key to eliminating cracking.
Workability Enhancement
Adding AQURON 300 additive waterproofing for concrete produces an outstandingly mobile, homogeneous and easy concrete to handle, making placing and finishing faster with no other admixtures required.

Silverdale Carparks
Silverdale Carparks
Auckland, New Zealand
At the Silverdale Carpark in Auckland back in 2012, our Aquron Waterproofing System was implemented by Naylor Love because of its unique advantages with lightweight speed-floor deck system for 2 car-parking decks.

Crest Apartments
Crest Apartments
Auckland, New Zealand
Providing waterproof admixtures to the shotcrete in the basement at the stunning Crest Apartments project in Grey Lynn, Auckland.
Aquron 300 was included early in the design process by Paul Brown Architects, who realized the benefit of steering away from wet-wall construction and having workable concrete for these areas.

Kepa Road Apartments
Kepa Road Apartments
Auckland, New Zealand
The Buchan Group specified Aquron 300 to the precast on the soon to be constructed Kepa Road Apartments, to retain the natural aesthetics of the precast concrete, a significant feature in this development.

Wastewater Treatment Plant Napier
Wastewater Treatment Plant Napier
Hawkes Bay, New Zealand
These concrete tanks have to withstand some rather harsh conditions, so Aquron 300 was mixed and poured within the cement to provide concrete that can protect itself from corrosion.
