This strategic decision was guided by the advantages of Xypex Admix C-Series, known for its minimal installation time, as it is added directly to the concrete mix during batching. This eliminates the need for applying waterproofing membranes or coatings post-concrete curing. When exposed to moisture within the concrete, Xypex reacts to form a crystalline structure, effectively sealing capillaries and micro-cracks. This renders the concrete impermeable to water, resistant to chemicals, and capable of self-healing cracks up to 0.5mm.

The application of the unique Xypex Crystalline Technology at Ahfad University for Women highlighted the effectiveness of these products in achieving waterproofing within a constrained construction schedule. By selecting Xypex, Technocon Engineering Group (TEG) and Dar Al Amara Engineering and Construction Company ensured a reliable, permanent waterproofing and concrete protection solution for the basement area, thereby enhancing the overall longevity and performance of the structure.
