Hydrophilic Waterstop

Hydrophilic waterstops provide a self-sealing solution that expands upon water contact, effectively preventing leaks. They are ideal for use in high-risk areas such as underground structures, ensuring structural integrity and long-term waterproofing. Meanwhile, hydrophilic strips are especially useful for narrow joints and locations with complex geometries.

While both solutions are effective for joint waterproofing, hydrophilic waterstops excel in self-sealing capabilities, expanding to create a reliable seal upon water exposure. Traditional PVC waterstops, on the other hand, provide a physical barrier at the joint, requiring precise installation for optimal performance. For areas prone to water ingress, hydrophilic options like hydrotite waterstops offer superior flexibility and adaptability.

Hydrophilic waterstops are commonly used in construction joints, control joints, and expansion joints, where water ingress needs to be controlled. Their flexibility and sealing ability make them ideal for challenging applications.For additional jointing solutions, visit our jointing systems page or check out Control Joints for further waterproofing options.

When properly installed, hydrophilic waterstops offer long-term durability, maintaining their sealing performance for years, even in challenging environments. Complementary solutions from our repairs, grouts and waterproofing range help extend their lifespan.

Hydrophilic waterstops are designed to endure repeated wet-dry cycles, maintaining their sealing integrity by expanding and contracting as needed. This makes them reliable for long-term applications in variable conditions.
