Moisture-related failures such as damp walls, efflorescence, paint peeling, putty deterioration, fungus growth, terrace leakage, and waterproofing failures often originate from moisture movement occurring within the substrate itself.
While most conventional waterproofing solutions primarily focus on the surface, Esplendido SilanStop™ is engineered to address the underlying moisture activity responsible for these recurring problems.
Esplendido SilanStop™ is an advanced deep-penetrating technology designed to work within the capillary pore structure of plaster, concrete, masonry, screeds, china mosaic systems, cement tiles, porous stone, and other mineral construction substrates.
The technology is designed to provide a unique Internal + External Dual Protection mechanism that helps reduce external moisture ingress while simultaneously controlling internal moisture migration within the substrate.
By helping control moisture movement from both directions, the system assists in minimizing the conditions responsible for dampness, efflorescence, paint failure, waterproofing failure, fungal growth, and moisture-related deterioration.
Unlike conventional surface treatments that primarily address symptoms, Esplendido SilanStop™ is engineered to help address the root causes of moisture-related building failures.
Most moisture-control solutions primarily focus on reducing external water exposure.
Esplendido SilanStop™ is engineered to help control moisture activity from both directions.
External Protection
Helps reduce external moisture ingress into the substrate by modifying moisture absorption pathways within the capillary pore network.
Internal Protection
Helps control internal moisture migration and restrict dissolved salt transport within the substrate.
Dual Protection Advantage
By addressing both external moisture ingress and internal moisture migration simultaneously, the technology helps create a more stable and durable substrate while reducing the root causes of moisture-related deterioration.
This unique dual-action mechanism helps provide a level of moisture management beyond conventional surface-only treatments.
THE SCIENCE BEHIND SILANSTOP™
Construction materials such as plaster, concrete, masonry, screeds, china mosaic systems, cement tiles, and porous stone contain millions of interconnected microscopic capillary pores.
These capillary pathways allow moisture to move through the substrate.
As moisture travels through these pathways, it carries dissolved salts toward the surface.
When the moisture evaporates, the salts remain behind, resulting in:
• Efflorescence
• Damp Patches
• Paint Failure
• Putty Failure
• Fungus Growth
• Surface Deterioration
• Waterproofing Failure
This cycle continues as long as moisture movement remains active.
Esplendido SilanStop™ penetrates deep into the capillary pore structure and helps modify the moisture movement behaviour within the substrate.
This helps reduce moisture activity, restrict dissolved salt migration, and stabilize the substrate before further deterioration can occur.
ADVANCED ANTI-EFFLORESCENCE TECHNOLOGY
Efflorescence is not a surface problem.
It is the visible result of moisture carrying dissolved salts through the substrate and depositing them on the surface.
Simply cleaning, scrubbing, or repainting the surface does not stop the process because the moisture and salts continue moving beneath it.
Esplendido SilanStop™ is engineered to help interrupt this cycle.
By helping control internal moisture movement and restricting dissolved salt migration, the technology assists in minimizing recurring efflorescence formation.
This helps reduce:
✔ White Salt Deposits
✔ Surface Whitening
✔ Paint Peeling
✔ Putty Deterioration
✔ Salt Staining
✔ Moisture-Related Surface Damage

Frequently Asked Questions
Can SilanStop™ be used on damp walls?
Yes. For damp walls requiring repainting, SilanStop™ should be used together with SilanStop™ After Coat 2K System.
Is SilanStop™ a waterproofing coating?
No. It is an advanced moisture-control and anti-efflorescence technology.
Can I paint directly over SilanStop™?
For damp-wall rehabilitation, After Coat 2K System should be applied before putty and paint.
Will it stop efflorescence?
It helps significantly reduce recurring efflorescence by restricting dissolved salt migration.
Can it be used on terraces?
Yes. It is suitable for terrace waterproofing applications.
Can it be used on china mosaic terraces?
Yes.
Can it be used on tiled terraces?
Yes.
Can it be used before PU waterproofing?
Yes. It helps improve substrate condition before waterproofing.
