Water-tight joint protection with controlled expansion.
Water-tight joint protection with controlled expansion. PENEBAR SW-55 is an advanced hydrophilic waterstop engineered to expand upon contact with water, ensuring a watertight seal in concrete construction joints. Its controlled expansion technology prevents premature swelling before concrete placement while allowing for reliable long-term sealing. Commonly used in basements, tunnels, precast elements, and retaining walls, PENEBAR SW-55 simplifies joint detailing and enhances overall waterproofing performance. Designed for demanding environments, it offers an easy-to-install, cost-effective solution for ensuring construction joint integrity.
