Choose to use: Drizoro Maxseal Super for Slabs or Walls
Drizoro Maxseal Super is a special waterproofing coating made of a mixture of cements, carefully controlled aggregates and special organic and inorganic additives. Its special formula improves the osmotic effect of the application allowing the penetration into the concrete through its capillary system. The product crystallizes inside sealing, waterproofing and protecting the concrete structure. Designed to be applied on fresh or set concrete, pre-cast concrete, concrete blocks or cement plasters. Suitable for applications on bricks and masonry. Use Maxseal Super as a replacement for Bentonite clay membranes.

Also suitable on other bricks and masonry.
Cement based Waterproof Membrane Coating with Crystallisation and Osmotic Properties
1.1. ADVANTAGES of Drizoro Maxseal SUPER for Slabs
This cement-based osmotic system is a one-component, cement-based, waterproof and protective coating applied in thin layers. i.e. up to 1 mm per layer, which achieves the following properties:
- Excellent waterproofing properties. Withstands very high positive and negative hydrostatic pressure.
- High adhesion and compatibility with common substrates used in construction.
- NO bonding or priming agent required. Apply only on a wet or damp surface.
- It fills and seals the pores of the substrate and becomes part of the structure of the surface.
- Is a continuous waterproofing membrane. No joints or overlap connections required. – leaking risk is much reduced or completely avoided.
- Permeable to water vapour – it allows the substrate to breathe. A vapour barrier is not formed.
- High resistant to abrasion and UV rays. High durability, similar to concrete.
- Excellent chemical protection of concrete against atmospheric pollution, de-icing salts, soil salts, chlorides, seawater and carbon dioxide,
- Resists the carbonation and electrolytic chemical corrosion of reinforcements.
- Contains No solvents or toxic components.
- Environmentally friendly and it is a suitable coating for drinking water tanks
- Manual applications are QUICK and Easy. Spraying will be faster. Saving labour and less work required.
- Drizoro Maxseal® SUPER is non-toxic, non-flammable
1.2. How to Apply Drizoro Maxseal SUPER
Application by brush, broom or spray Mix just with water between 6 and 7 litres per each 25 kg bag, either manually or preferably by slow speed drill (400 – 600 rpm). Slightly Increase water ration when the high temperatures are experienced or whilst spraying.
For standard applications. Apply Drizoro Maxseal® SUPER with a fibre type brush or broom such as our MAXBRUSH or MAXBROOM.
Apply a thick layer to form a continuous and uniform coating brushed out in one direction. Do not spread as like paint. Apply 1st in one direction. Then the second coat in a cross direction. Consumption is between 1 and 1,5 kg/ m² per coat, for a total consumption of about 2 – 2,5 kg/ m².
Waiting time between coats is from 6 – 8 hours minimum to 24 hours maximum.
Application by spraying using shotcreting equipment.
When Spraying areas that later will be subjected to water pressure.
Drizoro recommends brooming over the material which has just been sprayed This ensures complete coverage of the surface.
Application by dusting Drizoro Maxseal Super
Dusting the MAXSEAL® SUPER onto the lean concrete and the steel reinforcements. This procedure not only protects the reinforcement itself but prevents rising damp into the foundation slab.
Dampen the lean concrete dampened until saturation. Dust Drizoro Maxseal® SUPER using between 1,5 to 2,5 kg/ m².
Concrete for the foundation slab can be poured after one hour. Once Drizoro Maxseal® SUPER has hardened and adhered to the lean concrete, Use best endeavours not to damage the previous application.
Application by dusting and power trowel
Level freshly poured concrete. Dusting the concrete when it is cured enough to walk on. Still fresh enough to dampen the surface when troweled.
Spread the Maxseal Super in powder form.as supplied.
Spread Rate:- at a ratio of 1,5 to 2,5 kg/m², endeavouring to achieve complete and uniform coverage. Immediately after the application the surface is hosed down. This prevent the superficial drying of the slab and to make the power troweling smoother.
The troweling will provide a monolithic waterproof layer. Slightly dampened during this operation to improve the penetration and to prevent an excessively quick-drying. Quick drying prevents proper hydration of Drizoro Maxseal® SUPER.
Seal all one off areas columns, penetrating pipes, corners, concrete joints, and expansion joints prior to the general application.
2. DRIZORO MAXSEAL SUPER vs. BENTONITE CLAY MEMBRANE
BENTONITE CLAY MEMBRANE |
DRIZORO MAXSEAL SUPER |
Water is able to migrate beneath the membrane (bentonite and rubber combination sheets), making it is difficult to locate leakage in bentonite. |
The membrane becomes part of the substrate. Cementitious waterproofing membranes are fully bonded. Making it very easy to locate any leak. Failures are readily accessible and relatively easy to repair. |
Sealing of seams (workmanship) is critical to performance of bentonite membrane system |
No seams required with the MAXSEAL SUPER waterproofing osmotic mortar |
Penetrations and other out-standing points require careful flashing and sealing |
Penetrations and other protrusions (out-standing points). Easy sealed. Using a flexible waterproofing membrane. Such as Drizoro Maxseal Flex reinforced with a fibreglass mesh. |
Bentonite clay membrane is susceptible to physical damage during constructions |
There is no risk or puncture or other damages during application as this material goes into the capillarity network of concrete |
Bentonite clay membrane does not readily conform to complex shapes | Drizoro Maxseal® SUPER – conforms |
Prior to application of a bentonite membrane (sheets/panels/textile mats), the moisture on the concrete surface must not be excessive. Application of bentonite membrane is NOT possible with high levels of moisture on the concrete surface. Bentonite doesn’t tolerate Water. Water initiates the reaction of the bentonite. The substrate must be dry. |
Cement-based coatings require moisture on the substrate surface. The cement-based coating does not have any limitation on maximum relative humidity conditions |
Large single-sheet membranes are heavy and difficult to hold in place on vertical wall application |
Drizoro Maxseal SUPER whatever the process – by dusting process (dry-shake method or MAXSEAL® FLEX can be applied easily by brush, broom, spraying method even for large horizontal surfaces. |
The application process for bentonite membrane can be tricky, requiring and careful positioning of the sheets/panels |
The application process for Drizoro Maxseal® SUPER is very easy. No specialized handling or special tools or equipment required. |
Hydration and swelling for bentonite clay must occur within a confined area for the waterproofing properties to be effective. Care must be taken in design and construction to allow for adequate space for clay swelling | not a requirement |
Bentonite clays are NOT particularly resistant to chemicals in groundwater such as brines, acids, or alkalis | Excellent chemical protection of concrete against atmospheric pollution, de-icing salts, soil salts, chlorides, seawater and carbon dioxide, |
Bentonite panel systems require time (activation time) for degradation of cardboard before swelling and water-tightness occurs. This can allow water to penetrate a structure before swelling occurs | Surface water penetration is not possible once applied |
Bentonite clay systems are extremely sensitive to weather during installation. Bentonite applications require immediate protection to keep material from water sources. Rain causes groundwater levels rise. Bentonite becomes wetted. Premature Hydration will result in loss of waterproofing capability. Due to hydration occurring in an unconfined space.

Click on image to read detail or follow the link to Technical datasheet.
This Technical Note aims to make a comparative study between the cement-based waterproofing system composed of Drizoro MAXSEAL SUPER and bentonite clay membranes (sheets/panels/textile mats). Generally, bentonite clay product-based systems show a lot of leaking problems. Mechanical damage such as punching, cracks or tearing can be expected.
How to solve the above drawbacks.
Cement-based waterproofing systems come highly recommended option.
MAXSEAL® SUPER provides a watertight coating with high mechanical properties and chemical resistance. The coating is Watertight on uneven surfaces. UV radiation exposure or chemical attack is expected.
Unlike the use of a bentonite clay membrane, a continuous fully bonded material such as Drizoro MAXSEAL SUPER ensures an entirely watertight monolithic waterproofing application
