    Where to use CONPROOF LW 200: integral waterproofing admixture for concrete and mortar

    CONPROOF LW 200 is an integral waterproofing admixture for concrete and cement mortars, supplied as a dark brown liquid. It blends hydrophobic particles, lignosulphonates and proprietary chemicals that contract capillaries and make the mix denser and more watertight. As a lignosulphonate admixture it also improves workability and cohesiveness, and you add it to the gauging water or the wet mix.

    • All Concrete & Mortar Mixes

      Added to the gauging water or wet mix at 125–200 ml per bag.

    • Foundations & Basements

      Makes below-ground concrete denser and more resistant to water penetration.

    • Terraces & Roofs

      Waterproofs the slab concrete throughout the mix from a single liquid dose.

    • Reservoirs & Water Tanks

      Contracts capillaries so water-holding concrete is more watertight.

    • Bathrooms & Swimming Pools

      Cuts capillary absorption in mortar and concrete for wet areas.

    • Towers & Concrete Structures Exposed to Weather

      Uniform waterproofing inside the concrete for structures open to the weather.

    • Heavy Reinforcement Concrete Works

      Improved workability helps placing, and chloride content is below 0.1%.

    To prevent water seepage in new concrete, dose 125–200 ml per 50 kg bag of cement. At 200 ml you can reduce water by up to 15%. Water permeability is below 15%, against the 50% maximum allowable under IS 2645, and the product complies with IS 2645-2003. This low chloride admixture has less than 0.1% chloride, is free from sulphates and suits all Portland and sulphate-resisting cements, but not High Alumina Cement. Add it to the gauging water, never directly to the cement.

    Armstrong Chemicals supplies CONPROOF LW 200 to sites across Telangana, Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka, Kerala and Tamil Nadu, including Hyderabad, Vijayawada, Bengaluru, Kochi and Chennai.

    IS 2645-2003 Integral Waterproofing

    Denser Concrete. Watertighter Mortar. From a Single Liquid Dose.

    An integral waterproofing admixture with lignosulphonates and hydrophobic particles that contracts capillaries and reduces permeability to less than 15% — uniform waterproofing throughout the entire mix from 125–200ml per bag of cement.

    Why It Works

    Why Surface Waterproofing Alone Can't Do Everything

    Concrete has interconnected capillaries that carry water inward under hydrostatic pressure and capillary action. Treating only the surface leaves the internal structure porous. Surface coatings can't address channels that run through the structure itself.

    The CONPROOF LW 200 Advantage

    Added directly to the mix, it contracts capillaries from within — producing dense, homogenous concrete with water permeability less than 15%, improving workability and preventing segregation and bleeding — one admixture, multiple site benefits.

    Instant, Uniform Dispersion

    As a liquid admixture, CONPROOF LW 200 disperses instantly and completely throughout the mix — delivering uniform waterproofing throughout every cubic metre of concrete or mortar, not just the surface layer.

    Water Reduction + Strength

    At the maximum dosage of 200ml per 50kg cement bag, water can be reduced by up to 15%, improving compressive strength while maintaining — or improving — the waterproofing performance.

    Add to Gauging Water — Mix — Cure

    1

    Confirm cement type is Portland or sulphate-resisting cement — do not use with High Alumina Cement

    2

    Determine dosage through site trials: 125–200ml of CONPROOF LW 200 per 50kg bag of cement

    3

    At maximum dosage (200ml), reduce water by up to 15% to achieve optimum strength

    4

    Add CONPROOF LW 200 directly into the gauging water or the wet mix — do not add directly to the cement

    5

    If other admixtures are required, dispense them separately — do not premix CONPROOF LW 200 with other admixtures

    Integral Waterproofing

    Engineered for Denser, Watertighter Concrete

    Not a surface coat — an admixture that changes the structure of concrete itself.

    < 15% Water Permeability

    Reduces concrete permeability to less than 15% — against the 50% maximum allowable under IS 2645 — by contracting capillaries and filling interconnected voids.

    Variable Dosage, Better Control

    125–200ml per 50kg cement bag — site-adjustable dosage allows optimisation for different mix designs, with up to 15% water reduction at maximum dose.

    Corrosion Resistant, Low Chloride

    Meets JIS Z 1535 (modified) for corrosion resistance, with chloride content below 0.1% and zero sulphates — safe for heavy reinforcement concrete.

    Uniform Dispersion Throughout

    Liquid admixture disperses instantly and completely throughout the mix — improving cohesiveness, preventing segregation and bleeding, and producing dense homogenous concrete.
