Vetrofluid-Stop Concrete Deterioration Permanently
What is Vetrofluid®
Vetrofluid® is a high-performance, pozzolanic penetrating treatment designed for concrete protection and waterproofing. Manufactured and distributed in the U.S.A.. 100% environmentally friendly, with zero VOCs, Vetrofluid consists of select silicates, combined with a catalyst that allows penetration of 1.5 inches on existing concrete, and up to 3 inches when used as a cure on new concrete. As it penetrates, Vetrofluid fills the pores of the concrete matrix, effectively stopping all causes of concrete deterioration, permanently, with a single application.

What makes Vetrofluid® different?

Most common surface treatments are film forming and sacrificial, providing temporary protection and needing reapplication.  They also lock contamination into the concrete, allowing deterioration from within while protecting the surface.  While good at preventing water intrusion, many contain hazardous chemicals and do not increase abrasion resistance or strength.    
Vetrofluid is different.  Vetrofluid is permanent. Vetrofluid is non-sacrificial, becoming part of the concrete matrix itself. Vetrofluid is 100% environmentally friendly, with zero VOC’s.  Vetrofluid penetrates 1.5 inches into existing concrete, and up to 3 inches when used as a cure on new concrete. As it penetrates, filling the pores, any contaminants are pushed to the surface and prevented from returning.  Water intrusion is stopped, and the concrete is protected from damage by salts, chlorides, chemicals, and acids.  Vetrofluid increases the strength and density of the concrete, stopping spalling and impact damage.  Bottom Line- Vetrofluid permanently stops all causes of concrete deterioration with a single, environmentally safe application.
