Smart Concrete® is concrete engineered to sense, respond to, and dynamically improve durability and performance. Unlike traditional passive concrete, Smart Concrete behaves more like a responsive system: it can limit crack growth, reduce water penetration, self-seal (or self-heal) cracks, resist abrasion, slow erosion, monitor structural conditions, or adapt to environmental stresses. As the presence of water and hydrostatic pressure increases, Smart Concrete reacts proportionately and chemically to create a Krystol® barrier. The term reflects a shift from reactive repair to proactive performance. Smart Concrete also minimizes costly repairs and maintenance, providing a compelling ROI for real estate developers and government jurisdictions that prioritize concrete performance, quality and lifecycle value.
Kryton invented the world’s first crystalline waterproofing admixture in 1980. Since then, Smart Concrete has grown to encompass many aspects of advanced concrete construction technologies, such as integral abrasion and erosion resisting admixtures. Today, Smart Concrete is delivered all over the world to jobsites where customers expect products, services and technology to work together seamlessly to reduce risk and efficiently build healthy, durable structures.
Kryton is the award-winning manufacturer of Smart Concrete admixtures that improve durability, sustainability and resilience. It continues to set the specification standards for concrete performance optimization.
