OUR HISTORY

OVer 120 years in the making

​FOR OVER 120 YEARS, OUR ICONIC INTEGRAL ADMIXTURE
ANTI-HYDRO “AH1” ​
​HAS BEEN WATERPROOFING AND HARDENING MANY CONCRETE & MASONRY STRUCTURES ALL OVER THE GLOBE.

Here's Our story . . .

Picture
In 1900 F.M. Hausling
set out to develop an
integral waterproofing
for concrete.
​
​He enlisted the ​help
of the ​world renowned
Dr. Thomas B. Stillman,
​Professor of Engineering
Chemistry at​ the ​Stevens
Institute of Technology
in ​Hoboken, NJ.​
Dr. Thomas B. Stillman
Dr. Thomas B. Stillman
The result of their research was a miracle formula that
not only waterproofed but improved almost every
aspect of concrete. This miracle formula was marketed
by Mr. Hausling as "Anti-Hydro" ​and in 1904 the
​"Anti-Hydro Waterproofing Company" was born.

  THEN WE BUILT THE REST OF
THE WORLD. let us help
​build your city.

Anti-Hydro’s formula has remained the same and both the formula and the results have never been duplicated. ​If Portland cement is used,
Anti-Hydro will be a necessity.
​

For 120 years Anti-Hydro has made concrete stronger, harder, corrosion resistant, waterproof and freeze-thaw protected. Ultimately this means ​a more durable, longer lasting, and sustainable concrete.
Strength Test
Although our formula hasn't changed, Anti-Hydro as a company has ​adapted as the world has evolved. Since 1904 our product line has expanded and we have modernized our production process without compromising our integrity.
​

IT'S A SIMPLE SOLUTION:

Concrete & masonry containing Anti-Hydro Products
will display superior structural and cosmetic durability.
