Product Overview

Another industry first from LATICRETE, HYDRO BAN® 1 redefines waterproofing with its innovative, single-coat, trowel-applied formula. Engineered for both waterproofing and crack isolation, this advanced waterproofing solution allows installers to work faster and smarter using a trowel-on waterproofing method. HYDRO BAN 1 is designed for maximum efficiency — whether you apply it by brush or take full advantage of its waterproofing by trowel technology.

With its self-gauging application, the trowel serves as a built-in thickness guide, removing the guesswork and minimizing application stress during application. Its color-changing cure indicator gives instant visual confirmation when the membrane is ready for flood testing — in as little as 2 hours after cure. Ideal for a variety of substrates, climates, and project types, HYDRO BAN 1 makes professional-level waterproofing achievable with fewer steps, fewer tools, and less time on site.

For contractors and installers looking to improve their efficiency, reduce material needs, and achieve reliable, high-performance results, HYDRO BAN 1 is the future of trowel-applied waterproofing.

Features & Benefits

  • Curing temperature range ≥ 35°F or higher allows it to cure in a variety of different environmental conditions and substrate temperatures
  • ASTM E96 Rated for steam showers and steam rooms
  • Meets or exceeds ANSI A118.10, the most widely accepted waterproofing standard    
  • Meets or exceeds ANSI A118.12, providing 1/8" (3.175 mm) anti-fracture protection (no fabric required)
  • 2 to 3 Hours to flood test† so you can expedite the installation process 
  • Extra heavy Robinson Rating for a durable, long lasting install
  • Cure indicator – color changing technology gives you peace-of-mind and ease of inspection
  • Equipped with Microban® antimicrobial technology to protect the waterproofing membrane    † HYDRO BAN® 1 can be flood tested in 2 to 3 hours when the waterproofing membrane is cured and the substrate is 70°F (21°C) and 50% RH or greater for 2 hours. The curing time period starts when the HYDRO BAN 1 color has changed from a hi-vis green to a dark shade indicating a cured liquid waterproofing membrane. If the substrate and the air temperature are lower than 70°F (21°C) and 50% RH, flood testing can not be performed until the HYDRO BAN 1 color has changed from a light to a darker shade and then 24 hours has lapsed.
