Liquid-applied membranes are high-performance waterproofing materials commonly used in both building and infrastructure applications. Beyond preventing water infiltration, these membranes protect structures against weather, UV degradation, and thermal stress. They exhibit high flexibility, elasticity, and thermal stability, and are UV-stable to safeguard building structures. Smart, carefully controlled mixes and blends during production enable a seamless, continuous membrane that performs consistently over a long service life. Manufacturers of liquid-applied membranes typically rely on blends of bituminous compounds, elastomeric polymers, and cementitious binders. They also add performance-enhancing additives to boost flexibility, crack-bridging capacity, and waterproofing performance. Liquid-applied membranes can be used for both new construction and renovations, with different types of applications tailored to project needs. Applications include roofing, waterproofing of foundations and basements, wet areas, bridges, tunnels, and other infrastructure elements exposed to moisture and harsh environmental conditions. Various end-use industries, such as residential, commercial, and public infrastructure, can rely on liquid-applied membranes for surface waterproofing, protective coatings, and systems that enhance structural durability.
