Three years of continuous monitoring on waterproofing systems across the Gulf has revealed what works—and what doesn’t—in our unique climate. Our field team has been tracking membrane performance on 12 active projects spanning Saudi Arabia, UAE, and Egypt. The data reveals surprising results about durability under salt spray, UV exposure, and thermal cycling. Key Findings:
Cementitious membranes outperformed polymer-modified systems in splash zones Substrate preparation remains the #1 variable in long-term performance Thermal movement is greater than North American standards predict Early inspection (Week 2-4) catches 85% of application defects
