PU and polyurea for construction

Polyurea and Polyurethane Solutions for Professional Construction

Epaflex offers advanced systems in aromatic (pure and hybrid) and aliphatic polyurea and polyurethane (PUR) foams. They give high performances in terms of waterproofing, insulation and structural protection. Our technologies meet and very often exceed the needs of the civil and industrial construction markets, providing reliability, durability and speed of application.

Waterproofing with Polyurea

Thanks to its elasticity, high chemical resistance and rapid polymerization, polyurea is the ideal solution for creating seamless, joint-free waterproof coatings with full adhesion to the substrate.

Main applications:

  • Tanks and reservoirs: waterproof liners for drinking water, wastewater or industrial water.
  • Swimming pools, fountains and water treatment plants: long-lasting protection against infiltration and chemical agents.
  • Terraces, roof gardens and flat roofs: seamless, highly durable UV-resistant barrier against water.
  • Car parks and industrial flooring: for a wear-resistant, waterproof and easily sanitized surface.
  • Concrete or metal pipes: moisture protection to prevent corrosion and leakage.
Advantages of polyurea:
 
  • Quick application and immediate use
  • High resistance to chemicals and mechanical stress
  • No joints and maximum elasticity
  • Adhesion to various surfaces (concrete, metal, wood, bituminous and PVC membranes)

Insulation and Injection with Polyurethane Foams (PUR)

PUR foams, either by spray or by cavity-filling, are designed to improve the energy efficiency of buildings and consolidate their internal structures.

Main uses:

  • Thermal insulation of flat roofs, attics and walls: seamless thermal barrier without thermal bridges.
  • Structural injections: filling and consolidation of internal cavities in walls, tunnels and mines.
  • Window and door insulation: sealing of doors and windows against air and water leakage.
  • Pipe protection: insulation of water, gas and hydrocarbon pipes, with high resistance to thermal stress.

Benefits of PUR:

  • Excellent insulation properties with low thickness
  • Quick application even on complex surfaces
  • Improved energy efficiency of the building
  • Lower maintenance costs and energy consumption

Fast and sustainable construction

Materials used in the construction industry must guarantee long life, insulation and safety. The PU solutions that Epaflex offers for this sector are designed to deliver superior performance, reduce maintenance costs and improve efficiency.
