Bone Dry Pro
Performing Art Center Construction for Illinois High School
In 2018, the Zion-Benton Township High School began construction on a new performing arts center to replace the theater on the former Pearce Campus, which was demolished earlier that year. The school board hired 12 contractors for work totaling about $8.4 million, and Bone Dry Pro was used to waterproof the concrete substrates laid down when construction began.
Bone Dry offers a high-quality water-based, penetrating concrete sealer with a specialized formula that keeps the concrete in new constructions clean and dry for years down the road. Moisture infiltration leads to many problems with concrete flooring, including mold growth and emulsified adhesives. Bone Dry Pro is a quick, easy-to-apply moisture mitigation product designed to waterproof concrete and be used under floor coverings on both new and existing slabs. Excess moisture in concrete is a top concern for contractors working on any major project. If steps toward moisture mitigation aren’t taken, adding any covering to a concrete slab becomes a liability.
Antimicrobial Concrete Protection with Bone Dry Plus
Bone Dry Plus penetrating concrete sealer is a permanent sealer with added antimicrobial technology. The addition of antimicrobial protection prevents the growth of mold, mildew, and odor-causing bacteria in the pores of the concrete slab. Applying Bone Dry Plus to any new or existing concrete slab will create a chemical vapor barrier preventing moisture from surfacing, and the unique antimicrobial formula will guard against many forms of bacterial growth.
