For more than 45 years these solutions have been on the market, protecting against and solving most damp problems in a wide range of buildings, from private homes and swimming pools to bridges and oil platforms built in concrete.

The platforms are still standing in the severe climate of the North Sea today. Komsol has developed the technology further, into the world beating products for the waterproofing and hydrophobing of concrete that are now on offer to international clients.
