At Heritage Infraspace Pvt. Ltd. we produce PVC water stoppers at our plants, which helps us in saving massive material costs during construction activity.

1. What is the use of PVC water stopper?
PVC water stoppers are flexible strips made of plastic that act as a physical barrier to water at
concrete joints. They are most commonly used in basements, water retention structures such as
tanks, swimming pools, structural foundations, and other underground buildings.
PVC water stoppers are also known as PVC water bars. They are used to seal construction
connections and prevent water leaks. Heritage Infraspace produces its own PVC water stopper
in India, which helps us in saving massive material costs for construction company in India.
Types of water stoppers:
Water stoppers are used to prevent water from leaking through joints in concrete structures. They are
made from a variety of materials, including PVC, HDPE, TVP and rubber.
 PVC water stoppers are made from a flexible plastic called Polyvinyl chloride and are commonly
used in basements, swimming pools, and other underground structures. They are a good choice for
applications where water tightness is essential. Heritage Infraspace is a leading manufacturer of PVC
water stopper in India.
 HDPE (High-Density Polyethylene) water stoppers are made from high-density polyethene and are
similar to PVC water stoppers in terms of their properties. They are more resistant to chemicals and
abrasion, making them a good choice for applications where these factors are a concern.
 TVP (Thermoplastic Vulcanised Rubber) water stoppers are made from a rubber and plastic alloy and
are known for their high elasticity and resistance to long-term temperature fluctuations. They are a
good choice for applications where water tightness and durability are essential.
 Rubber water stoppers are made from rubber and are commonly used to seal pipes and tanks. They are
a good choice for applications where water tightness is essential and where the stopper will be
subjected to flexing or vibration.
Benefits of PVC water stoppers:
Using PVC Water Stoppers for water proofing is ideal for diaphragm walls and deep basement
construction. They offer several benefits, including:
 Ability to withstand hydrostatic pressure: PVC water stoppers can withstand high water
pressure, making them a good choice for diaphragm walls, which are often subjected to
groundwater.
 Superior elongation capacity: PVC water stoppers can stretch to accommodate movement in
the concrete joint, without compromising their watertightness. Resistance to acid and
seawater: PVC water stoppers are resistant to a variety of chemicals, making them a

2. good choice for constructing a diaphragm wall in dams that are located in corrosive
environments.
 Excellent elasticity: PVC water stoppers are highly elastic, which makes them easy to
handle and install. They can also be bent to fit around corners and other obstacles.
As a leading manufacturer of PVC water stopper in India, Heritage Infraspace offers a
wide range of PVC water stoppers to meet the specific needs of diaphragm wall and deep
basement construction projects.
How do we manufacture PVC Water Stoppers?
HIPL’s PVC water stoppers are made at its own water stopper manufacturing unit in
Ahmedabad, Gujarat. The process is carefully controlled to ensure that the stoppers meet the
highest quality standards. The steps involved in the production of PVC water stoppers are as
follows:
 Mixing of Bentonite and Water: The first step is to mix the hydrophilic agent bentonite with
water. Bentonite is a clay that expands when it comes into contact with water. This expansion
creates a watertight seal around the PVC water stopper.
 Rolling and Cutting: The bentonite mixture is then rolled out into long strips. The strips are
cut to the desired length and width.
 Quality Control: The cut strips are then inspected for quality. They are checked for
thickness, width, and uniformity. They are also tested for water absorption and expansion.
 Storage: The qualified strips are then stored in a controlled environment until they are ready
to be used.
 Installation: The PVC water stoppers are installed in concrete joints during construction.
They are inserted into the joint and then covered with concrete.
The PVC water stoppers are made using a special machine that ensures that the strips are
uniform in size and thickness. The installation of PVC water stoppers is a critical step in the
construction process and hence Heritage Infraspace follows a rigorous quality control process
during the manufacturing of its PVC water stopper in India.
Solutions we provide:
Diaphragm walls are a type of retaining wall that is used in construction projects where there is a
risk of groundwater seepage. They are made of concrete and are installed underground. PVC
water stoppers are used to seal the joints between the diaphragm wall panels and to prevent
water from seeping through.
We offer a comprehensive waterproofing solution for diaphragm walls that includes:
 Design and engineering: We will work with you to design a waterproofing solution that is
specific to your project and your site conditions.

3.  Supply and installation: We will supply and install the PVC water stoppers and other
waterproofing materials.
 Quality assurance: We will conduct quality assurance tests throughout the project to ensure
that the waterproofing solution is meeting your requirements.
Our PVC water stopper in India are made from high-quality materials and are designed to
withstand the harsh conditions of underground construction. Heritage Infraspace is a self
manufacturer of PVC water stoppers in India. We offer a wide range of PVC water stoppers to
meet the specific needs of your diaphragm wall construction project.
