Voltex Below-Grade Waterproofing Membrane
Voltex is a highly effective waterproofing membrane ideal for below-grade vertical and horizontal foundation surfaces. Voltex uses the high swelling and self-sealing properties of Volclay sodium bentonite to form a membrane to protect the structure from water. Installation is fast and easy, requiring no primers or special tools. Voltex can be installed in virtually any weather, including freezing temperatures and damp conditions.
Typical applications include backfilled concrete walls, under structural slabs, tunnels,
earth-covered roofs, and property line construction. Property line construction applications include metal sheet piling, soldier pile and lagging, and concrete caisson construction. Voltex can be installed directly over a properly pre- pared soil substrate without a working mud slab. Additionally, Voltex can be installed to freshly poured concrete as soon as the forms are removed.
