Crystalline admixture
Gives concrete “self-healing” ability for cracks up to 0.4 mm.
- You will use 10X less waterproofing material.
- In order to be environmentally friendly, we have removed the packaging from the products.
- Compared to conventional waterproofing, the installation of white tank waterproofing is up to 20x faster.
- The solution will last as long as the construction.
- You save on labor costs because the installation can be done by any concrete worker.
- Installation does not require additional equipment or special technology.

To make our customer’s life easier, we made a 3D Automatic Crack Inducer Calculator solution, which calculates the quantity of all WPM® construction joint profiles. Just add height, length, and width. The calculator is interactive and can be viewed 360 degrees from any angle.
In addition, we are working on a next-generation calculator so we can add the whole concrete structure plan with the pipe and cable penetrations.
In 2008, we started to use crystalline admixture in hopes of solving our problems with shrinkage cracks due to the fact that it can grow together to 0.4mm cracks. When engineers calculated 0.2 to 0.3mm cracks to 1m of the reinforced concrete structure in the construction design, it seemed like a perfect fit at the time.
When we understood that some cracks open more than 0.4 mm and that crystalline admixture could not grow them together, we designed a solution for controlling the shrinkage of reinforced concrete structures so that the cracks produced by the shrinkage are immediately watertight at the desired location. We added a keyway shape to the profile to make the joint connection stronger so that it can be used in load-bearing structures.
In addition, as the crystalline admixture can not grow together dynamic cracks that open and close, the WPM® CRACK INDUCING waterstop allows that movement to happen, making dynamic cracks watertight.
WPM® METAL SHEET WATERSTOP profiles, i.e., waterstops, are designed to waterproof construction joints. Compared to alternative solutions, the metal sheet is more reliable and long-lasting. We have added polymer coating to make concrete and metal sheet connections stronger and reliable.
WPM® Waterstops works with up to 2.4 bar of positive water pressure.
The crystalline admixture gives the concrete a “self-healing” ability. With the water entering the crack, the admixture can close the static cracks in the concrete with an opening width of less than 0.4 mm.
When the crack is under constant dynamic load, i.e., moving constantly, the admixture can not heal shrinkage cracks. In that case, we need a solution that enables the concrete block to move and waterproof the cracks that the moving has made. For that, we made WPM® Crack Inducing waterstop.
Crystalline admixture is packaged into a soluble bag, which makes the mixing process easier and with zero waste!
WPM® Crack Inducing waterstop profiles are added to the concrete structure to control shrinkage cracks.
Using our 3D Automatic Crack Inducer Calculator’s plan, the instalment of the profile is easier than ever, because it shows exactly where to install the profile by a cm.
Construction joint profiles are added just before the casting process to prevent water infiltration from the construction joints.

Crystalline admixture is mixed to the concrete in the concrete factory. We use crystalline admixture in soluble bags so it can be inserted to the mix conveniently and with no waste.

Kraso pipe penetrations and sealing elements, makes it easy to penetrate pipes and cables through concrete walls without water infiltration.
Bekina BeSealed® - Plugs and Rings
BeSealed hydrophilic plugs and rings allow us to waterproof concrete cracks around formwork spacers and formwork spacers themselves.
WFP Injection System
Using as a backup addition to construction joint waterstops, allows to inject injection resign to close all openings in construction joint to stop water infiltration if it were to happen.

“We like that materials were easy to handle and install. The best part is that there was no pasting and plastering of anything, pure and quick work! The turnover time was faster than we were used to before which was just a bonus for us! “
“When we can we definitely will! The solution is quick and easy and the Crack Inducers are genial for controlling shrinkage cracks!”
Complete Waterproofing
The entire concrete structure acts as its own waterproof barrier, as the solution is part of the structure itself – no membranes needed. The concrete structure is waterproof immediately after casting. You get a system that keeps your building watertight for its entire lifetime.
Faster Installation and Lower Labor Costs
The “White Tank” system can be installed up to 20 times faster than traditional waterproofing methods. You get the job done quicker while saving significantly on labor and time costs.
Experience That Saves Time and Money
With over 20 years of hands-on experience, we know what truly works on site. You get proven solutions and expert guidance that help prevent problems before they appear.
A Reliable Partner You Can Count On
Primostar has been growing steadily since 2000 – strong, stable, and always there when needed. You get a partner who keeps promises and stands firmly behind every project.
