Waterproofing Membrane Market size to exceed $14.5Bn by 2032

Published Date: November 3, 2022

Waterproofing Membrane Market size is poised to surpass USD 14.5 billion by 2032, as per a new research report announced by Global Market Insights Inc.
 

High demand for cost-effective waterproofing solutions will fuel market trends. Increasing investments in infrastructure projects and a rise in construction activities have accelerated the need for superior waterproof coatings. Technological advancements in damp-proof materials have enabled the introduction of integral waterproofing systems. For instance, atactic polypropylene (APP) membrane is one of the most used waterproofing materials across a wide range of applications including roofs, bathrooms, concrete channels, water tanks, and curtain walls. It is a durable waterproofing material with high tensile strength, resistance to weathering, and 100% impermeability.
 

Rise in construction activities to fuel demand for bitumen waterproofing membranes

Bitumen waterproofing membranes segment will reach over USD 4.4 billion by 2032. Bitumen or asphalt is a viscous liquid or semi-solid form of petroleum that is widely used in construction due to its waterproofing capabilities. Bituminous membranes are ideal for waterproofing basements, roofs, bridges, below-ground structures, and other structures.
 

Styrene-Butadiene-Styrene (SBS) is a popularly applied bituminous coating that imparts rubber-like characteristics. It helps improve a structure’s resistance to aging and weathering. The market share from SBS segment is projected to exhibit 6.5% CAGR between 2023-2032. SBS-modified bitumen membranes offer a wide range of benefits including security, dimensional stability, excellent adhesion, and better life expectancy.
 

Water seepage concerns in residential spaces to boost the use of liquid applied membranes

Waterproofing membrane market share from the liquid applied membrane segment is anticipated to expand at 7% CAGR from 2023-2032. Changing consumer preferences towards cost-effective waterproofing membranes will complement segment growth. These membranes are used to prevent water seepage in concrete that tend to expand and shrink when exposed to extreme temperatures. Liquid-applied membranes have ideal elongation properties along with advantages such as high elasticity, flexibility, durability, and chemical & abrasion resistance.
