Polyurea Coating System

Fast-Curing, Seamless, and Highly Durable Waterproofing

 

The Polyurea Coating System is a high-performance elastomeric coating formed
by the reaction of isocyanate and amine-terminated resin. It creates a seamless,
flexible, chemical- and abrasion-resistant membrane over structural surfaces.

 

In Dubai, polyurea coatings are widely used for:

  •  Waterproofing roofs, tanks, and terraces
  • Corrosion and chemical protection
  •  Abrasion-resistant industrial floors
  • Bridges, tunnels, and podium decks

How Polyurea Coating Works

Two-component spray application:

  • Component A: Isocyanate
  • Component B: Amine-terminated resin

Mixed at high pressure via a plural-component spray machine

Reaction produces a seamless, elastic, chemical- and abrasion-resistant coating

Properties:

  • Fully cured in seconds to minutes
  • Flexible: elongation 400–600%
  • Impermeable to water and most chemicals

Step-by-Step Application Process 

Surface Preparation

  • Ensure concrete/metal substrate is clean, dry, and free of dust or grease
  • For concrete: grind or shot-blast for mechanical adhesion
  • Repair cracks, honeycombs, and voids with polymer-modified mortar or epoxy
  • Remove surface moisture to ensure proper curing

Priming

  • Apply suitable polyurea or epoxy primer.
  • Allow tack-off (30–60 minutes)

Mixing and Spray Application

  • Use high-pressure plural-component spray machine
  • Spray uniform polyurea layer:
    • o 0.8–1.5 mm for waterproofing
      o 2–5 mm for chemical/abrasion resistance
  • Multiple coats can be applied as needed

Detailing

  • Spray extra thickness on corners, joints, penetrations, and pipe entries.
  • Embed reinforcement fabric in movement joints

Curing

  • Cures within seconds to minutes, allowing immediate foot traffic or water exposure

Optional Topcoat

  • Apply aliphatic topcoat for UV stability or color retention (optional for indoor/covered areas)

Advantages of Polyurea Coating

Seamless, fully bonded membrane (no joints)

Extremely fast curing (minutes)

High elongation and flexibility for structural movement

Excellent chemical, abrasion, and corrosion resistance

Waterproof under positive and negative pressure

Can be applied on slightly damp surfaces

Long service life (15–25 years)

Quality Control & Testing

Verify substrate profile (CSP 3–5 for concrete)

Confirm primer adhesion

Measure wet and cured thickness with non-destructive gauges

Inspect coverage on joints, corners, and penetrations

Optional water ponding test to confirm waterproofing

Applications in Dubai

Flat roofs and terraces

Water tanks and reservoirs

Swimming pools and water features

Bridges, tunnels, and podium decks

Concrete slabs requiring high abrasion and chemical resistance

Concrete slabs requiring high abrasion and chemical resistance

Frequently Asked Questions(FAQs)

The Polyurea Coating System is a high-performance, fast-curing elastomeric coating formed by the reaction of isocyanate and an amine-terminated resin. 

Key benefits include seamless waterproofing, extremely fast curing, high flexibility to bridge cracks, and accommodate structural movement.

It is widely used for waterproofing flat roofs, terraces, water tanks, reservoirs, swimming pools, podium decks, bridges, tunnels, and for providing abrasion resistance.

Polyurea’s key advantages are its seamless application, fast cure time, flexibility, and high resistance to chemicals, making it ideal for harsh environments.

Yes, Polyurea adheres well to properly prepared substrates, including concrete, steel, fiberglass, and wood.

Polyurea coatings are known for their rapid cure time, typically curing within seconds to minutes.

For standard waterproofing applications, a thickness of 0.8 mm to 1.5 mm is commonly applied. 

Yes, a suitable primer is generally required, especially on porous substrates like concrete.

When applied correctly by trained professionals, a high-quality Polyurea Coating System can have a service life of 15 to 25 years or more.

Absolutely. One of Polyurea’s greatest strengths is its high elongation (up to 600%) and flexibility. This allows the coating to bridge existing cracks and accommodate future structural movement more effectively.
