Integral waterproofing and self-healing admixtures support long-term performance across six continents
VANCOUVER, BC (December 17, 2025) – As cities expand vertically and coastal regions confront harsher climate patterns, owners demand longer service lives from their buildings and infrastructure. A worldwide leader in concrete waterproofing and durability solutions, Kryton International is emphasizing the urgent need for longer-lasting, high-performance concrete capable of resisting water ingress, corrosion, cracking, and environmental stressors across diverse geographies.
“Projects today must be designed for a radically different future—one defined by higher structural loads, denser urban development, and increasingly aggressive environmental conditions,” said Kari Yuers, President & CEO of Kryton International. “Sustainability is no longer optional. Owners, developers, and government agencies are prioritizing long-term performance to reduce life-cycle costs and protect mission-critical assets.”
For more than 50 years, Kryton’s waterproofing solutions have been deployed globally in high-rise developments, large-scale infrastructure programs, coastal structures, and secure government facilities. The following projects illustrate how integral waterproofing and durability technologies are advancing construction outcomes worldwide:
Across the Globe
- 30 Hudson Yards, Retail Podium & Amtrak Wheel Truer Section (New York City, U.S.)
One of the largest mixed-use developments in U.S. history integrated Kryton’s waterproofing solutions to protect complex below-grade structures built directly above active rail lines and subject to significant hydrostatic conditions.- Products and systems used:
- Solar Plaza Building (Temuco, Chile)
In southern Chile, Kryton’s technologies support resilient construction for a prominent commercial building facing high rainfall, seismic activity, and challenging groundwater conditions.- Products and systems used:
- Atlantic Square (Glasgow, Scotland)
This major commercial redevelopment in Glasgow relies on Kryton’s integral waterproofing to safeguard substructures from constant exposure to groundwater and heavy seasonal precipitation.- Products and systems used:
- Marina Bay Sands Integrated Resort (Singapore, Singapore)
One of the world’s most prestigious hospitality projects utilizes Kryton’s waterproofing systems to ensure longevity against marine exposure, humidity, and chloride.- Products and systems used:
- Woolworths Group Ltd.’s Moorebank Distribution Centers (Moorebank, Australia)
Advanced integral waterproofing and durability admixtures support high-performance logistics infrastructure that must withstand heavy loads, robotic operations, and strict structural requirements.- Products and systems used: Hard-Cem®
- Products and systems used: Hard-Cem®
“These projects highlight the essential role of modern admixture technologies in constructing buildings and infrastructure that can withstand the demands of the next century,” Yuers said. “Durability must be a primary design requirement from the start, not an afterthought.”
