Today, waterproofing is a fundamental construction requirement. Modern buildings are waterproof, using membranes and coatings to protect the integrity of the structure. Yet, a large number of households and commercial premises still face damage and problems that are associated with inadequate waterproofing of buildings. Actually, when waterproofing is done using compromised quality chemicals, it often fails to form a strong chemical bond with the civil structures; thereby leading to cracks, mould issues, and structural defects like concrete cancers.
This in turn defies the purpose of waterproofing, while delivering an incredible stress to the building and pocket of the owner. Hence, while opting for waterproofing, it is imperative to choose certified quality chemicals that can assure longevity and deliver sustenance to the walls.
With more than 15 years of experience in manufacturing waterproofing chemicals, Zydex Industries strives to deliver R&D backed nanotechnology based waterproofing solutions to its clients. Furthermore, excellent technical servicing and reasonable prices are the key traits of Zydex Industries. Dr. Ajay Ranka, Chairman & Managing Director, Zydex Group says,
“Our products have received trust and goodwill amidst the waterproofing applicators and contractors, due to their failure-free performance. At Zydex Industries, we also take pride in manufacturing sustainable and eco-friendly products.”
Penetrative Water Repellent Technology
Seepage and Leakage are the two key impediments that hamper the basic integrity of any infrastructure. While, most common waterproofing solutions based on liquid membranes focus only on preventing leakage by painting over the substrate. Zydex Industries, is providing a comprehensive solution to its clients through its flagship product, Zycosil+.
“In our system we address seepage through penetrative water repellent technologies first followed by leakage proofing. The combined approach yields far better and robust results in the long term for the client,” shares Dr. Ranka.
Penetrative and reactive waterproofing technology is permanent and easy to apply for both horizontal and vertical surfaces. The cement and concrete structures are rendered waterproof up to 1 mm deep, making the treatment exceptionally durable to weathering. Currently, the firm delivers a wide bracket of solutions in the waterproofing segment that includes – seepage proofing, leakage proofing, cold joint solution, tile & stone bonding, etc.

Dr. Ranka mentions, “We have always been focused on doing original work and producing products that are the result of innovation and new development rather than entering into a commodity space. In every area our product range is focused on being eco-friendly and sustainable.”
