MASTERSTOP bentonite waterstops
Find out everything about Europe's most rigorously tested waterstop.

With MASTERSTOP we have developed a bentonite swelling tape that sets new standards in terms of safety and performance. No other bentonite waterstop has been tested as rigorously as our MASTERSTOP, which has proven its functionality even at 8 bar water pressure. In addition – and this is another unique feature of MASTERSTOP – it has a General Building Supervisory Test Certificate (abP) for smooth and rough construction joints. This exceptional performance allows us to clearly position our product: MASTERSTOP is the safest bentonite waterstop in Europe! |
MASTERSTOP is available in various designs, which we will present to you in more detail on this page – from MASTERSTOP 25 x 20 mm for the most demanding requirements to the self-adhesive MASTERSTOP SK, which can be used, for example, to seal the outside of wall sleeves. |
