PORE’S FILLING
PRODUCTS

9. Waterproofing products form a film that protects against water and chemical
products.
•Very good protection against water
•Good resistance to chemical products
•Form a film
•Modify the look of the stone
•Reduce more or less substrates’ breathability : moisture can become trapped
below the surface and may lead to spalling
•Can turn yellow and blister
WATERPROOFING PRODUCTS

10. Pore’s filling products fill the pores of the substrate in order to avoid the
deposit of dirtiness inside.
•Very good protection against water
•Good protection against dirt
• Decreases the breathability of the material
PORE’S FILLING

11. Impregnation products penetrate into the material
without forming a film.They modify the surface energy
to protect materials
• Non film-forming
• Permeable to air and water vapour
