Nuvoco Vistas launches Concreto Uno, India’s first hydrophobic concrete with Damp-lock Formula for greater water resistance, increased durability, cost savings, and environmentally friendly building techniques.

Nuvoco Vistas Corp. Ltd., India’s fifth-largest cement group, has introduced Concreto Uno – Hydrophobic Concrete, a significant advancement in the building materials business. This one-of-a-kind concrete, with its superior hydrophobic qualities and groundbreaking Damp-lock Formula, sets new standards for building.

Concreto Uno – Hydrophobic Concrete has a unique balance of admixtures and a specialised mix design that prevents the formation of capillaries inside the concrete, resulting in much reduced permeability than standard-grade concrete. This waterproof concrete improves the strength and durability of structures, increasing their lifespan.

Furthermore, Concreto Uno’s Damplock technology lowers construction costs by reducing the need for expensive waterproofing membranes and coatings. Furthermore, it avoids dampness, preserving the aesthetic value of buildings. This product is best suited for structural consultants, architects, contractors, engineers, and project management firms (PMCs). It is widely available throughout India via Nuvoco’s RMX facilities.

Prashant Jha, Chief Ready-Mix Concrete and Modern Building Materials Officer, Nuvoco Vistas Corp Ltd., says, “Concreto Uno Hydrophobic Concrete is a game-changing hydrophobic concrete in the building materials industry. This means lower maintenance costs and greater peace of mind for our customers since their investments are better protected against water damage, enhancing the longevity and aesthetic appeal of structures. Also, this is a step toward sustainable building practices, making structures capable of withstanding harsh weather conditions.”

Chirag Shah, Head of Marketing, Innovation, and Sales Excellence, Nuvoco Vistas Corp. Ltd., states, “Concreto Uno Hydrophobic Concrete is a testament to our drive for innovation and excellence in building materials.
