ARDEX WPM 179 is a single component, latex-modified bituminous waterproofing coating designed for below-ground applications where flexibility and durability are required. It cures to form a permanently flexible waterproof barrier over concrete and masonry substrates, with strong adhesion and high elongation properties.

The formulation includes root inhibitors to help repel root growth, making it suitable for planter boxes and buried structures where long-term exposure to moisture and soil conditions is expected.
