NEW
YORK, April 16, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- The
March 2024 opening of the MiTek
Vietnam Office 2 complex in Hồ Chí Minh City, Việt Nam, provides a
modern administrative hub for the consulting company. The Penetron
System of crystalline waterproofing products was specified to
enhance durability for the building's below-grade concrete
structures.
After reviewing the project specs and the
construction site, our team recommended a combination of PENETRON
ADMIX, added to the concrete mix during batching, and PENETRON, a
topically applied slurry.
A subsidiary of the well-known Berkshire Hathaway holding
company, MiTek is a global provider of integrated software systems,
design solutions, and IT services for the construction industry.
MiTek Vietnam currently employs about 2,500 staff with headquarters
in Hồ Chí Minh City, Việt Nam.
The new MiTek Vietnam Office 2 building is located in the Tân
Thuận Đông Industrial Park. With a construction area of over 18,000
m2, the project comprises eight above-ground floors of office space
and two below-grade basement levels.
"Viteccons Construction, the general contractor, contacted
Penetron to provide a robust concrete waterproofing solution for
the MiTek project," says Kim Khanh Ngo
Xuan, CEO & Managing Director of Penetron Vietnam.
"After reviewing the project specs and the construction site, our
team recommended a combination of PENETRON ADMIX, added to the
concrete mix during batching, and PENETRON, a topically applied
slurry."
When PENETRON ADMIX is added to the concrete mix, it reduces
permeability by generating a network of insoluble crystals that
permanently seal microcracks, pores, and capillaries normally found
in concrete. This effectively blocks water penetration, even under
the hydrostatic pressure commonly encountered at construction sites
in the Mekong River Delta region. PENETRON, a crystalline
waterproofing material, which is topically applied as a slurry,
promotes concrete impermeability in a similar process to prevent
concrete deterioration.
PENETRON ADMIX was added to the mix for all exposed below-grade
concrete structures of the MiTek Vietnam Office 2 building.
PENETRON was applied to the prepared surfaces of the building's
foundation slab.
Kim Khanh Ngo Xuan reports that
the concrete placement phase of the MiTek project was "completed on
time and within budget thanks to Penetron's technical support and
the good work of the application team."
The Penetron Group is a leading manufacturer of specialty
construction products for concrete waterproofing, concrete repairs
and floor preparation systems. The Group operates through a global
network, offering support to the design and construction community
through its regional offices, representatives, and distribution
channels.
