Newton Waterproofing Systems and Axter Limited are proud to announce their UK waterproofing partnership. The two companies will be combining their expertise in basement waterproofing and podium deck and roof waterproofing in order to provide excellence to all customers.

The partnership will help to bridge the interface design and liability gap between above and below ground waterproofing; two disciplines that are typically seen on most concrete frame podiums.

Axter are a global roof waterproofing designer and manufacturer with vast expertise in both the new-build and refurbishment flat roof sectors. For more than 30 years they have been delivering excellence to their customers, reshaping roof waterproofing and sustainable roof design.

“Axter are proud to be a design partner of Newton, closing the design and guarantee link between below and above ground waterproof detailing. We’ve been working collaboratively on a series of tried and tested compatible interface details ranging from pile caps to property lines and upstand details, amongst others, in order to eliminate the design risk for architects and specifiers, and to ensure a guaranteed solution that does not leak.” – Michael Anaxagorou, Sales Director, Axter Ltd.

If you have a project that includes below-ground structural waterproofing and above-ground roof waterproofing, you can get in touch with the Newton and Axter technical teams by calling us on 01732 280640 or emailing tech@newtonwaterproofing.co.uk.

Often referred to as the ‘White Tank’ engineered waterproofing system, the RASCOtank system ensures that the concrete acts as both the structure and the waterproofing.

The Newton RASCOtank System will provide a unique form of Type B structural waterproofing for any new concrete construction project occurring below-ground in the UK.

Newton and RASCOR’s design team will work with the client, the structural engineer, the architect and the contractor from the outset of a project to achieve the required waterproofing strategy.

With this approach the Newton RASCOtank system provides the principal contractor and the client with savings on the financial and programming of the project and, as the system allows for unlimited pour sizes for the concrete floors and walls, maximum efficiency is also achieved.

RASCOR (3) copyA unique method allows Newton to control the locations of the inevitable cracks that occur in the concrete by use of the patented RASCOtec crack inducers. Deliberately placed at intervals within your concrete pour, the inducers allow for significantly bigger pour sizes, remove the need for the traditional chequer board method, and allow for unlimited concreting and any depth of floor or wall.

Ruben Schmid, Executive Director at RASCOR International said,“Newton are the perfect match to RASCOR. Each company has vast knowledge and experience, and is an expert in their respective areas of waterproofing. This new partnership means that Newton and RASCOR will be able to offer the best waterproofing solution in any combination on any project for our UK clients, and will put us into a leading position in the UK market.”

The exclusive partnership with RASCOR, an international group with over 50 years of experience in the design, manufacture, installation and warranty of Type B waterproofing for concrete structures all over the world, marks the beginning of a powerful new chapter in concrete waterproofing for the family-run business, based in Tonbridge, Kent.

 “RASCOR are pioneers in Type B waterproofing and we are absolutely delighted to be their exclusive partner providing the Newton RASCOtank system in the UK,”commented Newton Waterproofing’s MD Warren Muschialli.

“As the UK’s oldest independent designers and suppliers of guaranteed waterproofing systems for all structures, with 170 years of industry experience and expertise, we are their perfect partner.”
