Did you know water damage causes millions in foundation repairs yearly? Below-Grade Waterproofing is key to preventing this. It protects basements and foundations from moisture and structural damage. In this post, you’ll learn what below-grade waterproofing is, why it matters, and how foundation pro
Blindside Waterproofing is an advanced solution designed for below-grade structures where exterior access is impossible after concrete placement. This guide explains how blindside waterproofing works, compares HDPE, bentonite, PVC, and liquid-applied membrane systems, and discusses key performance factors such as hydrostatic pressure resistance, adhesion, puncture resistance, and drainage. It also outlines installation requirements, quality control measures, and project selection criteria, helping architects, engineers, and contractors choose reliable waterproofing systems for complex underground construction projects.
Waterproof Membranes for Structures are essential for protecting concrete buildings against water ingress, hydrostatic pressure, and long-term structural deterioration. This guide compares sheet membranes, liquid-applied membranes, bentonite systems, and crystalline waterproofing while explaining their applications, performance characteristics, installation requirements, and environmental compatibility. It also discusses membrane selection based on structural conditions, waterproofing orientation, durability, and maintenance considerations, helping architects, engineers, and contractors specify reliable waterproofing systems that improve structural performance and extend building service life.
Structural Waterproofing is a critical solution for protecting concrete structures from water ingress, hydrostatic pressure, and long-term deterioration. This guide explains the differences between structural waterproofing and damp proofing, introduces Type A, Type B, and Type C waterproofing systems, and outlines key selection criteria based on site conditions, environmental grades, and international standards. It also covers waterproofing design, quality assurance, inspection methods, and implementation best practices, helping architects, engineers, and contractors build durable, compliant, and long-lasting structures.
In 2020, Canlon successfully won the bid for the construction and management materials (bridge waterproofing layer materials) of the new Aksu-Alar Railway, thanks to its excellent product quality, technical service advantages and outstanding cost performance. It provides reliable waterproofing materials to safeguard the railway construction. Canlon Waterproofing Co., Ltd., with its waterproofing quality and supply services adapted to China's high-speed rail and "China Speed," has won recognition for this key western development project and is a source of great pride in contributing to national infrastructure construction!
In 2021, CCTV's "News Broadcast" featured a special report on a benchmark urban renewal project—the Taizhou Old City Renovation Project in Zhejiang Province. The video showcased the Taizhou Jiaojiang Bridge East Project, constructed by Greentown Leju, as a model, demonstrating how the living environment of residents in the old city area has been improved. This project is one of Canlon's representative works in the "urban renewal" journey. Taizhou's old city area suffers from numerous dilapidated and unsafe buildings, prompting residents to yearn for relocation to new homes. Taizhou City Development Group, Greentown Construction Management, and Fangyuan Construction, the general contractor, all possess high-quality resources from front-end planning and design to back-end property management. Supported by robust product and management standards, they have accumulated rich resources covering the entire industry chain.
Under direct sunlight in summer, the surface temperature of roofs can often soar to over 70°C. This heat continuously flows into the interior through the roof—air conditioners work frantically to cool the rooms, electricity bills skyrocket, and the urban heat island effect intensifies. Worse still, high temperatures accelerate the aging and embrittlement of roofing materials—including rolls and their plasticizers—leading to surface peeling and failure of waterproofing performance. A "feverish" roof not only has a significantly reduced lifespan, but also increases the risk of accidental ignition.
Recently, the bidding results for the 2026-2027 waterproofing engineering subcontracting framework agreement of the Urban Construction Branch of China Railway Wuhan Electrification Bureau Group have been announced. Canlon Construction Engineering Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of Canlon, was successfully selected and will work with the Urban Construction Branch of China Railway Wuhan Electrification Bureau Group to provide systematic waterproofing solutions and high-quality waterproofing materials for key urban infrastructure, rail transit, and municipal engineering projects, jointly safeguarding the high-quality construction of urban infrastructure.
Recently, the World Cup has entered its final stage, and fans and media often describe star players who score multiple goals in the same match as "a brace" or "a hat-trick". As we have seen, in the field of construction engineering, Canlon often wins multiple awards for a single project with its superb skills. Which projects have successfully achieved a "hat trick", and which projects have won "double the prize"?
