Kryton International Inc.

Krystol Internal Membrane™ (KIM®) is an integral crystalline waterproofing admixture. It uses crystalline technology to permanently seal concrete by plugging its natural pores and capillaries and blocking the movement of water. It also reacts with incoming water to self-seal new cracks, protecting structures against the water and contaminants that can weaken or destroy concrete and corrode steel reinforcement. It saves time, money, and hassles, both at the construction site and over the life of a structure, resulting in accelerated project schedules and reduced labor and material costs while owners benefits from leak-free, durable concrete structures that never require repairs to failed membranes.
