How It Works

KMA is a dry powder added directly to cementitious mortar during mixing. It is uniquely formulated with Krystol technology and water repellency characteristics to reduce both permeability and absorption.

Where It's Used

Use KMA to provide permanent protection for

• Rendering and plastering mortar (including stucco and other thin topping mixes) over concrete masonry walls or other prepared substrates
• Masonry mortar (i.e., mortar that goes between the masonry units)
• Concrete masonry units (i.e., bricks and blocks when they are manufactured)

Kryton has successfully used KMA in many projects around the world including St. Patrick's Church in Ireland, Al Habtoor Grand Hotel in Lebanon and the Crowne Plaza Today Hotel in India.
