It depends on where you use concrete slabs. Concrete impregnation is not always necessary, but in some places and situations it is recommended or even required. Here are the guidelines:
1. Where to impregnate concrete:
- Bathrooms, kitchens and external facades: In these places, concrete slabs will be exposed to direct contact with water, moisture and dirt, so impregnation is necessary. A hydrophobic impregnation is then used to protect the concrete from moisture, stains and dirt.
- Stairs and hallways: In these places, concrete impregnation is also recommended, especially due to the frequency of use and the possibility of dirt.
- External facades: Concrete on the outside should always be impregnated to protect it from atmospheric factors such as rain, frost and UV radiation.
2. Where impregnation is not necessary:
- Internal walls, e.g. behind the TV (RTV): In rooms where concrete is not directly exposed to water, impregnation is not necessary, but optional.
3. Rust effect slabs:
In the case of concrete slabs with a rust effect, impregnation is always recommended, unless the rust staining effect is not a problem.
For corten (rust) slabs, we only use spray impregnation. Impregnation with a roller or brush can destroy the pattern on the surface of the slab.
Benefits of impregnation:
- Increases the durability of concrete,
- Protects against moisture, dirt and stains,
- Makes it easier to clean and maintain the slabs.
