JUBIGUARD CRETE SHIELD SBR LATEX is a high-performance, multipurpose waterproofing and repair additive specifically formulated for Ghanaian construction conditions. Designed to strengthen concrete, improve bonding, and deliver long-lasting protection against water ingress, cracking, erosion, and corrosion, it is an essential tool for contractors, engineers, facility managers, and homeowners seeking durable and reliable waterproofing products in Ghana. Supplied as a ready-to-use, single-component modified styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR) latex, it integrates seamlessly with cement-based systems for waterproofing, concrete repairs, and bonding applications.

Available in 1 Liter and 5 Liter packs from CETECH Ghana, JUBIGUARD CRETE SHIELD SBR is trusted across residential, commercial, and industrial projects. Its combination of flexibility, strength, and adhesion makes it ideal for Ghana’s humid climate and high rainfall regions, ensuring concrete structures remain protected for years.

What JUBIGUARD CRETE SHIELD SBR LATEX Is and What It Does

JUBIGUARD CRETE SHIELD SBR is a modified styrene-butadiene latex supplied as a liquid additive. When combined with cement, it forms a flexible, high-bond slurry or mortar that significantly improves waterproofing, adhesion, durability, and wear resistance.

It is engineered for multiple applications:

• Repairing spalled, damaged, or deteriorated concrete
• Waterproofing cementitious surfaces, including bathrooms, small roof terraces, balconies, and basements
• Bonding new concrete to old concrete or masonry
• Improving abrasion resistance and reducing surface dusting
• Protecting reinforcement against corrosion

In Ghana, where high humidity, seasonal heavy rainfall, and temperature variations stress concrete structures, JUBIGUARD CRETE SHIELD SBR offers a practical, durable, and efficient solution for cement waterproofing, structural repairs, and preventive maintenance.

Material Composition and Technical Properties

Modified Styrene-Butadiene Latex Technology

The product leverages advanced modified styrene-butadiene polymer technology to improve cement hydration, flexibility, and impermeability. This makes it ideal as a waterproofing cement additive, a cementitious waterproofing compound, and a bonding agent for repairs.

Key Performance Benefits for Ghanaian Construction

Excellent Waterproofing Performance

JUBIGUARD CRETE SHIELD SBR forms a dense, flexible cementitious layer that blocks water penetration while allowing controlled vapour transmission. It is highly effective for:

• Waterproofing cement surfaces, including roof terraces and balconies
• Bathrooms and toilet floors, preventing seepage
• Basement side walls and lift pits
• Car decks, walkways, and effluent tanks

This makes it one of the most reliable waterproofing cement compounds in Ghana.

Increased Strength and Flexibility

By modifying the cement matrix, the SBR latex enhances flexural strength and reduces brittleness. This helps concrete resist cracking caused by thermal movement and shrinkage, common challenges in Ghana’s climate.

High Wear, Erosion, and Abrasion Resistance

Concrete treated with JUBIGUARD CRETE SHIELD SBR demonstrates improved resistance to abrasion, erosion, and dusting, making it suitable for:

• Industrial floors
• Staircases and ramps
• Car parks and walkways

Strong Bonding Capability

The latex bonds strongly to old and new concrete, masonry, stonework, and plaster, serving as an effective bonding agent and waterproofing compound for overlays and repairs.

Corrosion Protection for Reinforcement

The product also functions as an anti-corrosive coating for reinforcement, protecting steel in reinforced concrete structures against corrosion, especially in coastal regions and high-humidity environments in Ghana.

Application Areas in Ghana

Concrete and Mortar Repairs

Used for repairing RCC members and spalled concrete in:

• Floors
• Columns
• Beams
• Chajjas and slabs
• Parapets

JUBIGUARD CRETE SHIELD SBR restores structural integrity while enhancing durability and resistance to future deterioration.

Waterproofing Applications

Ideal for cement waterproofing and basement waterproofing projects:

• Small roof terraces and balconies
• Sunken toilets and bathroom floors
• Chajjas and lift pits
• Staircases and side walls
• Liquid and effluent tanks
• Car decks and walkways

Bonding Agent and Bond Coat

• Bonding mortar for tiles and panels
• Undercoat for special finishes such as chemical-resistant floors
• Bond coat for new concrete to old concrete
• Bonding masonry stonework and plaster

This makes it valuable for renovating older buildings or extending existing structures.

Cladding and Fixing Applications

• Fixing or re-fixing slip bricks, tiles, stones, and marble bedding
• Enhances adhesion and reduces the risk of debonding over time

External Rendering

• Weatherproof and frost-resistant render
• High wear and erosion resistance
• Effective pinhole treatment on concrete surfaces

Cementitious Grouting and Crack Filling

• Additive polymer for cement-based injection grouting
• Crack filling for cracks up to 5 mm

Anti-Corrosive Coating

• Applied on reinforcement bars to prevent corrosion
• Extends the lifespan of reinforced concrete structures

Coverage, Dosage, and Mixing Ratios

CoverageCoverage, Dosage, and Mixing Ratios

• Waterproofing applications: 2.5–3 m²/kg in two coats (depending on surface porosity and method)

Recommended Dosage and Mixing Ratios

• Waterproof Coating: 1:2 (JUBIGUARD CRETE SHIELD SBR : Cement) by volume
• Bond Coat: 1:1 (JUBIGUARD CRETE SHIELD SBR : Cement) by volume
• Repair Mortar: 6–7% by weight of cement

CETECH Ghana recommends conducting a site trial before mass application to confirm performance under local conditions.

Method of Application

Surface Preparation

• Clean thoroughly, removing dust, grease, laitance, and loose particles
