Mapei Mapelastic Foundation

Mapei Mapelastic Foundation is a two-component membrane based on cementitious binders, fine-grained selected inert materials, special additives and synthetic polymers in water dispersion.

Best Uses

Mapei Mapelastic Foundation is recommended for foundation walls, car-parks and underground environments, basins, channels and swimming pools. Also suitable for waterproofing concrete and masonry structures subject to positive or negative hydrostatic pressure.

Mapelastic Foundation is completely waterproof against positive pressure, and is waterproof against negative pressure of up to 1.5 atm (15 m column of water). Once cured, it is resistant to soluble salts which are present in seawater or in the ground, such as chlorides and sulphates. Mapei Mapelastic Foundation also has excellent bonding strength on all cementitious substrates if they have been suitably prepared. All these properties keep structures protected and waterproofed with Mapelastic Foundation perfectly dry over the years.

Mapelastic Foundation fulfils all the main criteria for the EN 1504-9 Standards ("Products and systems for the protection and repair of concrete structures definitions, requirements, quality control and conformity assessment. General principles for the use of products and systems") and the requirements for EN 1504-2 Standards according to PI-MC-IR principles ("Protection systems for concrete surfaces").
