Constructiontrade - Waterproofing pipe and cable penetrations

Cables, wires and pipes must be routed through walls and other structural elements. It is precisely these penetrations that represent critical areas in building waterproofing. If water penetrates here, moisture can enter the building despite an otherwise intact surface waterproofing membrane.
For this reason, pipe and cable penetrations must be waterproofed permanently, reliably and in accordance with the relevant water exposure requirements.

Remmers Stopaq is a permanently pliable, swellable sealant for waterproofing cable, conduit and pipe penetrations. The material remains permanently flexible and swells on contact with water.
Stopaq is also suitable for applications subject to water pressure from behind, as well as for sealing water-carrying leaks. It is gas-impermeable, resistant to ageing and watertight under pressure up to 0.3 bar.
When used in combination with WP DS Levell, the penetration can subsequently be covered and reliably integrated into the surrounding waterproofing system.
The result: permanently and reliably waterproofed penetrations, even in challenging detail areas and where water acts from the rear.
