Waterproof Coatings
About Waterproof Coatings
Comprehensive protection: Creates a continuous, seamless barrier preventing water ingress.
Versatile composition: Includes acrylics, polyurethanes, synthetic polymers, and polyureas.
Flexible application: Can be applied by brushing, rolling, or spraying to suit different surfaces.
Long-lasting performance: Ensures an effective, durable seal that resists weathering and cracking.
Corrosion prevention: Acts as a protective armor, shielding structures from corrosion and daily wear.
Extended lifespan: Significantly increases the durability of buildings and concrete structures.
Materials:
- Polymers: Synthetic, high-molecular-weight coatings that transform from liquid to solid, creating a film.
- Polyurethane: Used for wood, ceramics, and concrete to provide waterproofing and corrosion resistance.
- Acrylic and Epoxy: Durable, water-based paints that can be used on floors, walls, and roofs.
- Cementitious Coatings: Modified cement-based coatings that are often applied to concrete and masonry.
- Membranes: Sheets of material, like those applied with heat (torch-on membranes), that form a complete waterproof layer.
Applications:
- Protecting building foundations, basements, and tunnels.
- Sealing roofs, both low-angle and those exposed to water pooling.
- Waterproofing exterior walls and other surfaces like concrete and stone.
- Protecting internal structures, such as water tanks.
Application Methods:
- Brush or roller: Common for paints and sealants.
- Heat application: Used for membranes to ensure a solid bond.
- Spraying: An option for some paint types.
Benefits:
- Prevents structural damage and deterioration.
- Protects against corrosion.
- Increases the lifespan of buildings and other surfaces.
- Provides aesthetic benefits by preventing stains and dampness on walls.
- Offers resistance to chemicals, making them suitable for industrial use
