Most Innovative products for 2007

Concrete & Masonry Construction Products – November/ December 2006

This year’s Most Innovative Products contest at World of Concrete/World of Masonry (Jan. 23-26) includes some of the most creatively innovative materials and equipment to burst upon the scene since last year. These products run the gamut from big to small, from high-tech to low-tech, and from high-priced to low-priced. But they all have two things in common. First, all of these products represent new ways to meet construction challenges. And second, all of the companies who have entered them in the contest are hoping you’ll help decide which ones are this year’s most innovative products.

FINISHING MATERIALS & EQUIPMENT

WATERPROOFING TREATMENT USES DYE

Krystol Broadcast concrete waterproofing treatment is an alternative method of delivering crystalline waterproofing directly to the plastic slab. It uses a fugitive dye that allows finishers to see where the treatment has been applied, ensuring a consistent application rate. The product eliminates the need for slurry application to cured concrete slabs. Apply it to fresh concrete, then trowel it in. Kryton International Inc. 800-267-8280. www.kryton.com. Circle 106.
