Patented Waterproofing for Tie-Bolt Holes

Newton is delighted to act as the UK licensed partner for the unique RiveStop system in the UK. This system is ideal for managing tie-bolt holes in concrete structures! RiveStop is a patented solution for sealing holes from tie-bolts in concrete walls, saving time and cost over traditional mortars.

How Does RiveStop Work?

The RiveStop system consists of three simple components:

This short video shows just how easy it is to install RiveStop and benefit from the unique sealing system it provides for these critical areas in concrete construction:

The Benefits of RiveStop Tie-Bolt Holes

Moreover, RiveStop delivers many benefits compared to the usual cement-based products on the UK market, including:

• Reliability – Avoid the risk of water and gas leaks compared to the conventional PVC tubes method, especially through these tie-bolt holes.
• Reusability – RivePipe units can be reused over and over, usually a minimum of 20 times.
• Ease of Use – No training is required, and the system can be installed in any weather or temperature.
• Speed – Installation is 10 times faster than existing methods, as high as 360 to 500 RiveStop units per hour depending on whether you are using the manual or electric rivet method.
• Adaptability – RivePipe units are available in different lengths dependent on wall thickness, and RiveStop units have a variety of diameters, materials and finishes that can accommodate various dimensions.
• Safety – The system is certified as a barrier against water pressure, sound pollution, fire, acidic or saline solutions, and radon.
• Durability – RiveStop adapts to the size and shape of the tie-bolt hole, ensuring a 100% watertight, permanent seal for the lifetime of the concrete.

Overall, RiveStop delivers savings of up to 90% in terms of both man hours and material costs. This is compared to other alternatives in the UK waterproofing market. Projects worldwide, like the new concrete wind turbine platform in the Atlantic Ocean, benefit immensely. They benefit from perfectly sealed tie-bolt holes.
