Top Products for Bathroom Waterproofing
POLYALK WP
POLYALK WP is an excellent product for bathroom waterproofing due to its versatile application across various surfaces such as floors, external walls, and sunk portions of bathrooms. It forms an impermeable co-matrix film when mixed with cement, ensuring strong adhesion and high flexural strength. The product can be applied in slightly moist and damp conditions, making it suitable for bathrooms. Surface preparation is crucial, involving cleaning, crack filling, repairing.
SUNKOTE WP+
SUNKOTE WP+ is a high-build, elastomeric liquid-applied waterproofing membrane system designed for a variety of RCC surfaces, including roofs, chajjas, parapet walls, sunken areas, and external walls. This robust coating is suitable for both flat and sloping roofs, offering excellent elasticity to withstand cracks up to 2 mm and accommodate thermal movements. With its UV-resistant and anti-fungal properties, SUNKOTE WP+ provides a durable, resilient barrier against environmental factors. It also boasts high tensile strength, tear resistance, and superior adhesion to the substrate, making it an ideal choice for long-lasting waterproofing solutions. Non-toxic and breathable, it ensures the underlying concrete surface remains protected while allowing for vapor transmission.
SUNPRUFE PU1K
SUNPRUFE PU1K is perfect for bathroom waterproofing due to its strong adhesion to concrete surfaces and flexibility under extreme temperatures. It forms a seamless, thick, flexible membrane, eliminating the need for a reinforcing layer. This product ensures comprehensive waterproofing without gaps, making it highly effective for wet areas. Additionally, SUNPRUFE PU1K can be easily applied by brush, roller, or spray, and it provides durable protection under terrazzo or tile floors, shower pans, and bathroom floors, ensuring long-lasting prevention of water damage.
POLYKOTE 2C
POLYKOTE 2C is easy to mix and apply, retaining flexibility even when submerged. It offers good chemical resistance to soft water and domestic wastewater and is non-toxic, making it safe for any kind of water contact. The product is breathable, allowing the substrate to breathe while repelling water, and provides CO2 barrier and anti-carbonation benefits. With excellent adhesion to porous and non-porous surfaces, POLYKOTE 2C ensures durable waterproofing. These properties make it one of the effective waterproofing solutions for your bathroom, protecting against water damage and carbonation.
SUNCRYSTALMIX
SUNCRYSTALMIX can be easily mixed with cement to form an impermeable co-matrix film. It is alkaline and compatible with concrete, and it does not facilitate carbonation. The product can be applied in moist and damp conditions, such as exteriors and terraces during wet spells. It can be used in overhead or underground water tanks almost immediately after emptying. With high flexural strength and extraordinary adhesion, SUNCRYSTALMIX serves as a reliable base waterproofing coat on external walls. These properties make it effective for bathroom waterproofing, protecting against water damage and sulphate attacks.
POLYTANCRETE IWL
POLYTANCRETE IWL conforms to IS: 2645 -1975 standards. It reduces water permeability in concrete/mortar by up to 60%, making it an effective solution for waterproofing. This additive improves workability, making concrete/mortar dense and impermeable while minimising porosity and capillary action. It also reduces vapour transmission through walls and slabs. To use, add POLYTANCRETE IWL to the gauging water of the concrete mix at a rate of 200 ml per 50 kg bag of cement. These features ensure reliable waterproofing for bathroom walls and floors.
POLYALK WP+
POLYALK WP+ offers high flexural strength and extraordinary adhesion, protecting concrete against carbonation. It can be applied in moist conditions and is suitable for areas like exteriors and terraces during monsoon spells. The product’s crystalline action reactivates upon contact with water, providing additional dormant protection. For application, mix POLYALK WP+ in a 1:1.25 ratio by weight, apply the slurry to damp surfaces, and follow with two more coats at 24-hour intervals. Cure the coating for seven days for effective waterproofing. These features make POLYALK WP+ an excellent choice for bathroom waterproofing.
These products by Sunanda Global offer a comprehensive solution for bathroom waterproofing. Along with these products and waterproofing solutions, ensuring proper ventilation in bathrooms is crucial. Proper ventilation is crucial for evaporating trapped moisture within waterproofing layers, thereby promoting indoor air quality. Without adequate ventilation, the efforts invested in waterproofing the bathroom may be rendered ineffective, leading to potential moisture buildup and damage.
