Swellable Water Bar is a hydrophilic sealing strip designed to prevent water ingress through construction joints in concrete structures. When it comes into contact with water, it expands to fill gaps and voids, creating a durable watertight seal. It is commonly used in basements, water tanks, tunnels, retaining walls, lift pits, and other below-ground concrete structures.
