Penetron Penebar

PENEBAR™SW-55 is a bentonite infused butyl rubber waterstop developed to stop waterpenetration through cast-in-place concrete joints by expanding in a controlledfashion when exposed to water and making a positive seal inside and against theconcrete. Its ability to expand and seal concrete joints allows it to replacethe more passive tied in PVC waterstop systems and eliminate welding irons,split-forming and special shapes. PENEBAR™ SW-55 can be applied to non-moving,concrete construction joints for both horizontal and vertical applications. Itcan be used on new or existing concrete, irregular surfaces and through-wall orslab penetrations, such as pipes, utility lines, piling and steel members.Other typical applications that are ideal for PENEBAR™ SW-55 includeunderground structures, basements, precast panels, tunnels, manholes, liftpits, retaining walls, concrete pipes and storage tanks. PENEBAR™ SW-55 isprovided in two packaging typologies: Type A, i.e. 30 meters of product percarton; Type B, i.e. 24 meters of product per carton. The information for thepresent environmental declaration regards 1kg of PENEBAR™ SW-55, consideringthat the density of PENEBAR™ SW-55 is equal to 0,712 kg/m.. 

  

PENEBAR™SW-45 is a bentonite infused butyl rubber sealing compound designed to expandrapidly when exposed to moisture, making it a self-healing joint material forconstruction joint applications. PENEBAR™ SW-45 can be applied to buildingfoundations, slabs, retaining walls, storage tanks and other similar non-movingcold construction joints. PENEBAR™ SW-45 is provided in two packagingtypologies: Type A, i.e. 30 meters of product per carton; Type B, i.e. 24meters of product per carton. The information for the present environmentaldeclaration regards 1kg of PENEBAR™ SW-45, considering that the density ofPENEBAR™ SW-45 is equal to 0,735 kg/m.).  

  

PENEBAR™products manufacturing process starts 

withthe raw material supply and transportation 

ofall raw materials to manufacturing site. Raw materials aretransferred to the mixers by forklift. Initially, butyl rubber is mixed in akneader with all the CTS materials. Plastic waste from materials packaging issent to Easton (PA) landfill via truck. The remaining materials are added tothe first mix in a separate kneader and the paper waste from packaging is sentto Easton (PA) landfill via truck. The final mix is moved through a skipconveyor to the roll mill for the rolling process, and, lately, it is movedthrough a slitting conveyor and cut into strips. Then, the product is letnaturally cured. Extrusion and rolling are then performed before proceedingwith the manual packaging. Silicone-coated release paper is applied to theproduct. Then, Tthe final product is put into paper boxes, palletized on woodenpallet and stretched with stretch film. The pallets are finally moved to thestock through forklift. For the entire manufacturing processes, dust iscollected through a suction Dust Collector and cooling is performed through aCooling tower pump and a Cooling tower fan.
