Penetron Helps Raise the Curtain at New Italian Theater
Share Article
The March 2021 opening of the Nuovo Teatro Civico Roberto De Silva (New Roberto de Silva Municipal Theater) is a highlight in the revitalization of Rho, a city in the Lombardy region of Northern Italy. PENETRON ADMIX, a permeability-reducing concrete admixture, protected the below-grade structures against the high groundwater encountered at the construction site.
“Magic box” in Rho: The New Roberto de Silva Municipal Theater is a place for performances, exhibitions, or conventions. Penetron technology was specified to waterproof the cellar structures.
The New Roberto De Silva Theater was built in a very short time, about 23 months in total. Fortunately, the contractor used the crystalline waterproofing technology that helps shorten construction times: the Penetron System.
