How to choose waterproof materials?
Three practical tips to help you avoid pitfalls
- Depend on the scene and purpose: Flexible coatings (such as JS, K11) should be selected for bathrooms and balconies, and roll materials (such as SBS, TPO) should be given priority for roofs and basements; damp areas should pay attention to the mildew resistance level, and outdoor exposed parts should pay attention to UV resistance.
- Look for environmental protection and certification: Give priority to products that have passed China’s ten-ring certification, France’s A+, Germany’s EC1 Plus and other environmental labels to avoid the release of formaldehyde and benzene harmful substances.
- Don’t just look at the price, pay attention to construction and after-sales service: No matter how good the materials are, if the construction is not in place, it means nothing.
Choosing a brand that provides standardized construction guidance or supporting services can significantly reduce the risk of later leakage.
