What is Cementitious Waterproofing

Cementitious Waterproofing is the cement-based polymer coating for preventing water penetration in the building. Cementitious coating contains sand, organic and inorganic chemicals, and polymer within it. The sand, organic and inorganic chemicals and polymer come together to create a hydration reaction which will help to create a flexible waterproof surface. Cementitious waterproofing is widely used as it is easy to apply. Hydraulic cement and supplementary cementitious materials are two types of cementitious materials. Increasing urbanization and growing construction industry is driving the Cementitious Waterproofing market.

Here are some of the driving factors that are increasing opportunities for the Cementitious Waterproofing market growth:

Increasing urbanization and growing construction industry:

According to the India Brand Equity Foundation, India's urban population increased by 230 million (1970-2010). About 51% of the global population lives in urban areas. Expanding population leads to increase in residential houses and societies. The increasing population demands for high infrastructure facilities. This leads to a growing construction industry which ultimately results in increasing demand for the Cementitious Waterproofing market. 

Damping of building causing health problems:

The leakages to walls cause damping of buildings. This damping can cause growth of microbes and molds on the surface. The growth of such microbes and organisms are harmful for health. Allergies, asthma and various respiratory disorders are caused due to damping. Wetting of the wall can also lead to flaking and blistering of paints. Hence to avoid all such losses the cementitious waterproofing is done. Increasing health issues due to damping of buildings will drive the Cementitious Waterproofing market.

Here are some of the restraining factors for Cementitious Waterproofing market growth:

Volatile prices of raw materials:

The cost and availability of the raw material of waterproofing material are highly unstable. The major cause for restraining the growth of the Cementitious Waterproofing market is volatile prices. Many of the raw materials of waterproofing are oil-based. Hence volatile prices of oil as raw material of waterproofing material have a negative impact on the growth of the Waterproofing Systems market.

Conclusion:

Cementitious Waterproofing is the simplest way of waterproofing. Cementitious waterproofing is very important for leakage free and damp-proof buildings. Increasing urbanization and growing construction industry is driving the Cementitious Waterproofing market whereas volatile prices of raw material of cementitious waterproofing hinders the growth of Cementitious Waterproofing market.
