Ultraseal

Product catalog summary
Size and Packaging
Ultraseal BT and Ultraseal SP are available in rolls measuring 4’ x 25’ (1.2 x 7.6 m), with 25 rolls per pallet, covering 2,500 sq. ft. (232 sq.m.).
Product Overview
Ultraseal membranes, developed by CETCO, are designed for comprehensive below-grade waterproofing. They utilize advanced Active Polymer Core (APC) technology, offering superior expansion and chemical resistance compared to traditional hydrophilic waterproofing materials. The membranes are lightweight, facilitating quick installation.
Materials and Technology
The Ultraseal system incorporates hydrophilic rubber, sodium bentonite, and hydrophobic polyurethane. The APC technology ensures the membranes are ten times less permeable and more chemically resistant than traditional options.
Applications
Ultraseal BT is suitable for backfilled foundation walls, tunnels, and earth-covered structures, while Ultraseal SP is designed for under slab applications. Both membranes perform under continuous and intermittent hydrostatic pressure conditions.
Advantages
  • Hydrostatic Resistance: Tested to resist 231 ft (100 m) of hydrostatic pressure.
  • Low Permeability: At least ten times better than traditional bentonite membranes.
  • Bond Strength: Forms a mechanical bond with concrete.
  • Self-Sealing: Membrane laps form watertight seals upon activation.
  • Chemical Resistance: Resists higher concentrations of salts and organic solvents.
  • Efficient Installation: Large, lightweight rolls enable fast installation.
Installation and Performance
Ultraseal can be installed in freezing temperatures and on green concrete. It forms a dense, impervious membrane upon contact with water, sealing small concrete cracks and providing reliable waterproofing once concrete is poured against it.
Specifications and Features
  • Hydrostatic Pressure Resistance: Ultraseal membranes can withstand up to 231 ft (100 m) of hydrostatic pressure.
  • Low Permeability: The permeability of Ultraseal is at least 10 times better than traditional bentonite waterproofing membranes.
  • Bond Strength: Ultraseal forms a continuous mechanical bond with concrete.
  • Self-Sealing Laps: The membrane laps self-seal upon activation, ensuring watertight performance.
  • Chemical Resistance: Ultraseal resists higher concentrations of salts and organic solvents compared to traditional systems.
  • Installation Efficiency: Large, lightweight rolls facilitate fast installation and higher daily production rates.
Product Performance
  • Superior Chemical Resistance: Enhanced swelling in salt solutions improves waterproofing performance.
  • Size and Packaging: Available in 4’ x 25’ (1.2 x 7.6 m) rolls, packaged 25 rolls per pallet, covering 2,500 sq. ft. (232 sq.m.).
  • Free Swell: Upon hydration, the APC core expands to form a dense, impervious membrane.
Company Overview
  • Experience: CETCO has over 45 years of experience in the waterproofing industry, with installations in over 60 countries.
  • Product Line: Ultraseal membranes are part of a comprehensive waterproofing and drainage product line.
  • Technology: Both Ultraseal SP and BT use advanced APC technology, ensuring compatibility and ease of system integration.
  • Support: CETCO offers technical service personnel worldwide to assist with design inquiries and product use.
Materials Used
  • Hydrophilic Rubber
  • Sodium Bentonite
  • Hydrophobic Polyurethane

DRY 48-HR FREE SWELL Upon hydration, the APC core expands to form a dense, impervious waterproofing membrane. Now you can waterproof the entire below-grade structure with products from a single manufacturer. There is no need to specify dissimilar materials from different manufacturers. Ultraseal membranes are part of a complete waterproofing and drainage product line engineered by CETCO for peak performance. Both Ultraseal SP and Ultraseal BT incorporate the same advanced APC technology and therefore are completely compatible. As a result, difficult system tie-ins and detailing are no longer...
