The ultimate combination of integral and


topical crystalline protection


Securing the long-term durability of concrete infrastructure requires proactive moisture management. Crystalline technology achieves this by actively forming insoluble networks within the concrete matrix to block water, vapor and harsh chemicals.



While single-application treatments using crystalline technology offer essential defenses, the real transformation in structural longevity occurs when you bridge internal reinforcement with external pore-sealing. By combining Chem-Crete® MCE™ and PAVIX®, you create a complementary, multi-layered system that leaves no weak point exposed in your investment.

Unmatched defense


  • Integral fortification. Batched directly into the concrete mix, MCE builds a dense internal crystalline network to block moisture migration and significantly limit shrinkage.


  • Surface defense. Applied topically, PAVIX forms a penetrating surface barrier that shears surface moisture, repels de-icing salts, improves freeze-thaw resistance and detours chemical intrusion.


  • Multi-layered protection. When these technologies operate in tandem, resilience is maximized and chloride permeability reduction is improved by up to 40%, multiplying the impact each technology has independently.


  • Environmentally safe and regulatory compliant. Both MCE and PAVIX are among the only 100% VOC-free and eco-friendly concrete protection technologies, making them safe for deployment in waterways, marine structures and highly regulated environments.


Don’t leave your next project exposed to premature deterioration. Upgrade your specification to include the ultimate combination in concrete protection and reduce your life-cycle maintenance costs.
