CLEVA CRETE Projects

Victoria Tower, Adelaide CBD
Auta Group - Residential / Commercial - $200m
During the initial construction phases of the 37-level development at 32-38 Grote Street, our CLEVA CRETE 842 WP waterproofing admixture was selected for use in the concrete ground slabs and lift shafts/walls. This landmark project will include 285 apartments, retail tenancies, commercial office spaces, and communal residential facilities.
Why CLEVA CRETE 842 WP? 842 WP was specified for its superior internal waterproofing properties, ensuring long-lasting durability and protection in critical areas, specifically below ground. Applied to both the lift shaft walls and the ground slabs, it forms an integral barrier against water and chemical ingress, a key consideration for high-rise buildings of this scale and service life. Key Benefits in Ground Slabs: By incorporating 842 WP into the ground slabs, the base of the building gains enhanced resistance to moisture, while increasing the strength and durability of the concrete, minimising potential structural damage from water and chemical exposure over time. This waterproofing solution extends the lifespan of the structure by at least 5x, reducing the need for future ground level repairs and providing a solid foundation for the entire building and residents. CLEVA CRETE 842 WP and 842 MVRA has been trusted in numerous residential and commercial projects across Adelaide: Our expertise in waterproofing solutions has been consistently applied in developments that demand durability, reliability, and long-term performance.

Woodville Ambulance Station
SA Ambulance Services - Emergency Medical Services - $311.2m
The South Australian Ambulance Service has utilised CLEVA CRETE 842 MVRA (Moisture Vapour Reducing Admixture) for the construction of their new ambulance stations as part of their strategic expansion since 2022. The Woodville Ambulance Station is one such project where the 842 MVRA was integrated into the concrete mixture before pouring and before any flooring or sealing occurred.
Why CLEVA CRETE 842 MVRA?
842 MVRA was selected for its ability to control moisture vapour emissions in concrete, providing critical protection for the flooring layers on top. For facilities like ambulance stations, which experience heavy foot traffic and equipment movement, maintaining the integrity of the floor is vital. By significantly reducing moisture levels, 842 MVRA safeguards against under flooring damage, preventing floor coverings from delaminating or deteriorating over time.
Key Benefits:
Using 842 MVRA in the concrete floor slabs enhances the durability and longevity of the finished floors. It ensures that the floors remain structurally sound by controlling moisture movement, creating a stable foundation before flooring or sealing is installed. This reduces the risk of costly repairs and downtime in high-traffic environments like ambulance stations.
Proven Expertise in Essential Infrastructure
Our admixtures have been crucial in supporting the long-term functionality of essential infrastructure, helping facilities serve the community efficiently. Other ambulance stations including CLEVA CRETE admixtures include:
- Edwardstown

Findon Technical College
Department of Education - Educational - $35m
In 2023, CLEVA CRETE 842 MVRA (Moisture Vapor Reducing Admixture) was used in the construction of Findon Technical College to provide long-lasting protection for the concrete floor slabs before flooring or sealing was applied.
Why CLEVA CRETE 842 WP?
For schools and educational facilities, 842 MVRA offers critical moisture control, protecting floors from vapour emissions that can damage finishes and lead to costly repairs.
Key Benefits:
CLEVA CRETE 842 MVRA makes it possible to lay flooring just 14 days after the concrete slabs are poured. Our 842 MVRA eliminates the need for self-levellers, grinding, and external waterproofing applications by providing moisture protection directly within the concrete. This not only simplifies the construction process but also allowed for faster project progress while ensuring the floors’ long-term durability and protection.
Proven Expertise in Educational Projects
CLEVA CRETE 842 MVRA has also been successfully implemented in various educational projects across South Australia, including childcare centres, primary schools, secondary schools, and private schools:

South Australian Police Barracks
SAPOL Mounted Operations Unit (MOU) and Dog Operations Unit (DOU) - Emergency Services / Correctional Facilities - $100m
The new homes for the South Australian Police (SAPOL) Mounted Operations Unit (MOU) and Dog Operations Unit (DOU) at Gepps Cross and in the Adelaide CBD utilised CLEVA CRETE 842 WP for all concrete poured on site. These facilities required a robust and long-lasting solution to ensure structural integrity, particularly in high-use training and animal housing areas.
Why CLEVA CRETE 842 WP?
CLEVA CRETE 842 WP was chosen for its superior waterproofing and densifying capabilities, providing essential protection for the concrete in these purpose-built facilities. By integrating 842 WP into the concrete mix, moisture infiltration is prevented and the concrete is densified quickly, ensuring the longevity and durability of the concrete even in challenging environments.
Key Benefits:
Incorporating 842 WP in all concrete poured at both Gepps Cross and the Adelaide CBD locations ensured comprehensive moisture protection by densifying the concrete, preventing cracking, spalling, and other moisture-related issues. This significantly enhances the structural integrity of the facilities, increasing the service life of the concrete by more than five times compared to traditional methods. By reinforcing the durability of the concrete, CLEVA CRETE 842 WP provides a stable, long-lasting foundation for SAPOL’s operations, ensuring a safe environment for both their animals and staff.
Proven Expertise in Emergency Services / Correctional Facility Projects:
CLEVA CRETE 842 MVRA has also been successfully implemented in various Emergency Services / Correctional Facility projects across South Australia:

Normanville Surf Life Saving Club
Normanville SLSC & Café/Kiosk Redevelopment - Recreational - $6.5m
The redevelopment of the Normanville Surf Life Saving Club (SLSC) and Café/Kiosk on the coastline integrated CLEVA CRETE 842 WP for all concrete applications. Given the challenging coastal environment, 842 WP was essential to ensure the long-term durability and structural integrity of the building.
Why CLEVA CRETE 842 WP?
CLEVA CRETE 842 WP was chosen to make the facility robust and fit-for-purpose, addressing the unique needs of the SLSC, café/kiosk leaseholder, and the broader community.
