The Febproof Plus Waterproofer and Plasticiser Admixture is a premium-grade, multi-purpose liquid designed to improve the durability, workability, and waterproofing capabilities of cement-based mortar and concrete. Supplied in a large 25-litre Money Saver Deal Container, this high-performance admixture is perfect for both professional builders and DIY enthusiasts tackling large-scale or demanding projects. Its advanced formula serves as both a plasticiser, enhancing the smoothness and flexibility of the mix, and a water-proofer, protecting against the damaging effects of water ingress and freeze-thaw cycles. Whether you’re working on foundations, retaining walls, external rendering, or bricklaying, Febproof Plus ensures a professional finish that is robust, long-lasting, and resistant to environmental stresses.

By reducing water permeability and improving adhesion, this admixture helps create strong, durable structures that are less prone to cracking and damage. Its dual-action properties eliminate the need for separate plasticisers and waterproofing agents, streamlining your workflow and reducing material costs. Formulated to integrate seamlessly with all Portland cements and standard mortars, Feb-proof Plus is a versatile and reliable choice for any construction or renovation project. With its large-capacity container, it’s ideal for contractors and professionals looking for a cost-effective and efficient solution for high-performance waterproof mortar and concrete mixes.

1. How does Febproof Plus improve waterproofing in mortar and concrete?
Feb-proof Plus integrates advanced water-repelling technology into cement-based mixes, reducing the capillary action that allows water to penetrate. By forming a protective barrier within the mortar or concrete, it minimizes water absorption, preventing issues like dampness, efflorescence, and freeze-thaw damage. This internal waterproofing enhances the longevity and durability of structures, making it particularly effective in areas exposed to constant moisture, such as basements, retaining walls, and external renderings. Its dual-action formula ensures waterproofing is seamlessly combined with improved workability, eliminating the need for additional waterproofing agents.

2. Can Febproof Plus be used in cold weather conditions?
Yes, Feb-proof Plus is highly effective in cold weather applications. By reducing the water content in the mortar mix, it minimizes the risk of frost-related expansion and contraction, which can lead to cracking. Its air-entraining properties create microscopic air pockets within the mix, allowing it to better withstand freeze-thaw cycles. However, it’s essential to protect freshly laid mortar from extreme cold during the initial curing phase to ensure optimal performance and durability.

3. How does Febproof Plus improve the workability of mortar and concrete?
As a plasticiser, Feb Proof Plus enhances the flow and consistency of mortar and concrete mixes, making them smoother and easier to apply. This improvement in workability reduces labour effort, increases efficiency, and ensures better adhesion to surfaces. The mix becomes more cohesive, reducing the likelihood of segregation or separation during application. Whether working on vertical surfaces, intricate detailing, or large-scale flat areas, Feb-proof Plus ensures a professional-grade finish with minimal effort.

4. Is Febproof Plus suitable for all types of cement and applications?
Yes, Feb Proof Plus is compatible with all types of Portland cement and standard mortar mixes, making it versatile for various applications. It is ideal for bricklaying, external rendering, pointing, and even structural work where waterproofing and durability are crucial. Its ability to improve both plasticity and resistance to water ingress makes it a reliable choice for both indoor and outdoor projects. However, it is essential to follow the recommended dosage and mixing guidelines to ensure consistent performance across different applications.
