Xypex crystalline waterproofing has been used in thousands of projects throughout the world. Xypex
has set the standard for intregal waterproofing for the last 40 years.
Xypex has gained a reputation as an effective product, and is specified over and over again by
engineers and architects who realize the advantages of designing with truly waterproof concrete.
Because Xypex has set the standard, various manufacturers have made claims that their product is
as good as Xypex. They do this because Xypex has set the high standard, and thus being equal to Xypex
is very desirable.
However, through thousands of projects and hundreds of tests, Xypex has been proven to outperform
other products in critical situations.
It's easy to claim in marketing brochures that a product is equal to Xypex. However, those claims
cannot be backed up with independent testing. Engineers and architects continually reject other
products as being equal to Xypex.
The comparitive information in this section will provide test results and data from various
projects. As you will see, Xypex has an extensive database of independent tests conducted
throughout the world. These tests show a consistency of Xypex’s ability to make concrete better.
Beyond Xypex being a superior product, we provide superior service. When you design with Xypex,
your project is backed up by our 10-Year Watertight Warranty.
There are other crystalline waterproofing products out there, but we recommend designing with the
proven leader in crystalline waterproofing, XYPEX.
