Waterproofing Membranes

WACKER offers VINNAPAS® polymer dispersions and powders for the formulation of 1K ready-to-use (pasty) systems as well as 1K and 2K cementitious systems.
GENIOSIL® WP alpha-silane-terminated polymers are key to liquid waterproofing membranes.
The portfolio comprises both polymer dispersions and powders; the vinyl acetate-ethylene (VAE) grades comply with the requirements of European ecolabels such as Blue Angel, Emicode EC1 plus, etc.
Benefits
- Reliable barrier against both negative and positive hydrostatic pressure
- Water vapor permeability
- Bridging of cracks due to shrinkage or settling of substrate
- Accommodation of small movements in the substrate
- Excellent adhesion to many different substrates
- Excellent adhesion after water immersion
- High flexibility
- Increased tensile strength
- Excellent workability and easy application
- Application via brush, trowel, roller or machine spraying
- Excellent compatibility with cement
Application Spectrum
- Basement walls and foundations
- Underground parking lots
- Showers and bathrooms
- Balconies and terraces
- Multifunctional rooftops (e.g. rooftop terraces and parking decks)
- Swimming pools
- Sewers, canals and water pipes
- Water tanks (including drinking water)
- General concrete infrastructures

Polymer modified waterproofing membranes can bridge cracks caused by movement of the substrate. Liquid waterproofing membranes based on GENIOSIL® WP can be applied easily, even on wet substrates and dry very quickly.
