Sika MaxMix Waterproofer

Sika MaxMix Waterproofer is a highly concentrated waterproofing and air entraining admixture for sand and cement which is 25 times the strength of conventional products. Sika MaxMix Waterproofer forms extremely stable air bubbles in sand/cement mixes. This improves the workability of mortar/render giving it a “buttery” consistency and helps prevent shrinkage, cracking, crazing and mild frost damage during the curing process, as well as providing long term resistance to freeze/thaw cycles.

Sika MaxMix Waterproofer contains pore blocking additives to reduce water absorption and reduces the chance of efflorescence (salt formation). It extends open time to enable large areas to be covered in one go. This product is fully tested to the requirements of EN934 Part 3 Table 2.
