Insulated Concrete forms with their relatively soft, foam construction and small gaps between each block present a unique waterproofing challenge. Platon has risen to the challenge with an exceptional performance record – since 1994, it has been used on thousands of ICF basements with NO REPORTED LEAKS.
Platon is considered by many installers to be the “ICF’s most user friendly waterproofing product.” Straight-line dimples make it easy to work with and Platon is strong enough so that only the top edge has to be screwed in to the ICF fastening points with our patented Speedclip/Speedstrip fastening system.
It is virtually impossible to find a leak in an ICF foundation without destroying the foam. Do it right the first time with Platon Foundation Protector. Pay particular attention to the footing drain as well.

Made from environmentally friendly high density polyethylene (HDPE)
Controls both interior and exterior moisture
Can be installed regardless of ICF block condition, with no weather restrictions
