BASF’s Polyurea-Based Protective Coating Provides Jointless Waterproofing for Roofs

The main function of a roof is to keep out the wet. All the same, leaks and penetrating moisture are by no means uncommon especially on flat roofs. The plastic- and bitumen-based membranes conventionally used are susceptible at the joints, particularly where complicated roof geometries are involved. Such membranes can additionally become brittle at low temperatures and no longer bridge concrete cracks sufficiently. For such applications BASF has its Elastocoat® coating system that gives roofs jointless waterproofing and has been attracting increasing interest.
