Creteshield penetrating sealer

Creteshield is a specially formulated hybrid potassium penetrating sealer that absorbs into the concrete, neutralising the alkaline and combines with the lime to form a gel that later hardens. This blocks all the pores within the slab which prevents moisture migration, which is the major cause of concrete deterioration.

Seals the concrete - Stops dusting - Stops moisture transfer - Hardens the concrete

Why we recommend the use of Creteshield?

• Creteshield stops concrete dusting, forever, without re-application.
• Creteshield seals the concrete, both from the surface and beneath.
• Creteshield keeps concrete dryer and therefore warmer and healthier.
• Reduces Radon gas emissions through concrete. 2nd biggest cause of cancer in the US. http://www.epa.gov/radon/
• Creteshield strengthens the concrete. 42% harder on average.
• Creteshield prevents surface spalling (wear, degradation).
• Creteshield will purge some of the existing contaminates.
• Creteshield is not a surface sealer and will not make the surface slippery.
• Creteshield is non volatile and non toxic, with no odors. We can complete the application in one day (up to 10,000 SqM). With almost immediate return to use.
• Creteshield allows 4% moisture vapor, important to release hydrostatic pressure.

Makes no visible change to concrete, but can be coated or painted.

Creteshield is available in 3 grades
Creteshield 101 - for standard trowel or power finished concrete, Block walls.(better waterproofing properties than DN)
Creteshield DN - Concrete Densifier for standard concrete (used as part of our Diamond Polished Concrete System)

Creteshield SR - Stain resistor/maintenance polish, use on Diamond polished concrete and over surface sealers. Reduced scuffing and scratching, stain resistance, easy care finish.

Where we use Creteshield?

• As the penetrating sealer, densifier (hardner) and dust proofer for our polished concrete system.
• Basements - floors and walls. Stops hydrostatic pressure and dampness.
• Under every floor covering - prevents dampness, delaminating of resilient coverings and deterioration of glues. Keeps floors warmer, reduces Radon Gas.
• On external concrete - prevents concrete holding moisture that promotes growth of mould and algae.
• Driveways - prevents penetration of spilled oil, fuels etc. Also strengthens exposed aggregate surfaces.
• Garages - prevents dusting, easier clean up of surface.
• Concrete and block retaining walls - prevents moisture migration that deteriorates mortar and block work.
• On a new slab - If you are planning a ground concrete finish, have Creteshield applied to keep out contaminates that could ruin the appearance of the finished project.
• On Factory and warehouse floors - to stop dusting and prevent premature wear from forklifts and other machinery.
• Carpark buildings - Prevents surface wear and dusting.
