Unimix

Magicrete - Unimix is a cutting-edge waterproofing compound with an enhanced formula for superior water resistance abilities. The super UNIMIX formula consists of surface-active plasticizing agents, polymers, and other additives. It ensures that the concrete becomes cohesive and thereby highly resistant to water.

The solution is most suitable for producing flowing, pumped, and pre-stressed concrete as well as industrial and commercial floorings. You can trust UNIMIX to be your go-to partner for structures like basements, canals, bridges, dams, water tanks, roofs and basements, infrastructures for which hydro insulation is absolutely essential. The compound can be added to cement, concrete, mortar, and plasters to create a plaster mix that when treated, results in reduced water permeability.

The Unimix compound is a new-age waterproofing superplasticizer that ensures higher strength and impermeability making your critical structures more durable and last longer. The compound also contains active corrosion inhibitors that protect against steel corrosion. It also reduces shrinkage, thereby resulting in fewer cracks in the resultant structures.

Features

Impermeable

Impermeable

Water is unable to permeate into concrete because this compound is a mix of specially designed active ingredients which ensure the concrete remains waterproof when water is able to pass through hydrostatic head pressure or capillary absorption, or both.

Durable

Durable

This compound makes concrete increasingly durable by ensuring water impermeability, and thus waterproofing of concrete

Strong

Strong

Renders the concrete with a much higher compressive strength and ensures that the setting time remains within the specified time limit.
