Services
Air Barrier Systems
Our air barrier systems prevent air and moisture infiltration with self-adhered membranes, fluid-applied sealants, and transition assemblies. These solutions enhance energy efficiency and structural longevity in new construction and restoration projects. Architects and contractors rely on our tested systems for code compliance and durability in extreme climates.
Waterproofing Membranes
We provide fluid-applied, sheet-applied, and hybrid waterproofing systems with primers and drainage accessories. These solutions protect below-grade structures like foundations and parking garages from water damage. Our systems combine advanced materials with technical support to ensure long-term performance in demanding applications.
Traffic Coatings
Our PUMA technology-based traffic coatings deliver abrasion resistance and crack-bridging for vehicular and pedestrian areas. These fast-curing systems protect pool decks, plazas, and industrial floors while maintaining slip resistance. The coatings integrate with waterproofing systems for comprehensive surface protection in high-traffic environments.
Gasket Design
Our technical team designs custom gaskets for fenestration and wall assemblies to ensure airtightness and weather resistance. Using advanced materials like silicone and EPDM, we create seals that accommodate movement while maintaining performance. These solutions support LEED certification and energy code compliance for commercial buildings.
Installation Services
We offer expert installation guidance and training for proper application of our building envelope systems. Our field technicians provide on-site support, ensuring correct membrane placement, sealant application, and system integration. This service minimizes errors and warranty claims while optimizing long-term building performance.
