In the field of underground engineering, waterproofing is a strategic endeavor about building safety, service life, and operational costs. As the part of a building in closest contact with the groundwater environment, basements endure long-term challenges from hydrostatic pressure, moisture erosion, and structural deformation. Once waterproofing fails, it can lead not only to leakage, mold, and steel reinforcement corrosion but may also endanger structural safety, with extremely high repair costs. HDPE (High-Density Polyethylene) waterproofing membranes, with their exceptional material properties and the systematic advantages of pre-applied bonding, are becoming the ideal solution for basement waterproofing.
Recently, the "Standardization Observation Meeting for Engineering Quality Improvement and 2026 Waterproofing and Anti-corrosion Technology Exchange Meeting," hosted by the China Construction Industry Association and organized by the Waterproofing Branch of the China Construction Industry Association, the Shandong Provincial Construction Industry Association, Shandong Jianzhu University, and other units, was held in Jinan, Shandong. At the meeting, the 2026 White Paper on "High-Quality Engineering Waterproofing Materials and Technologies" was released, and the Jinji Lake Tunnel main waterproofing project , in which Canlon participated, was honorably selected. It is worth mentioning that the main waterproofing project of Jinji Lake Tunnel also won the Silver Award of the 2025 Jinyu Award.
Canlon is one of the first building material manufacturers in China to apply waterproofing products to nuclear power projects, contributing to numerous high-quality projects such as the Rongcheng Nuclear Power Plant in Shandong, the Sanmen Nuclear Power Plant in Zhejiang, the Xiapu Nuclear Power Plant in Fujian, and the Fuqing Nuclear Power Plant. The Fuqing Nuclear Power Plant unit project, in particular, won the National Excellent Project Award (Gold Award). Canlon's flagship product, MBP-P polymer self-adhesive waterproof membrane, passed the supplier certification of China National Nuclear Corporation (CNNC) and was also awarded the "Jiangsu Excellent Product" certification at the 2nd Jiangsu Quality Conference.
In the history of modern construction, persistent leakage, akin to a "water curtain cave," has long plagued the industry and end-users. The limitations of traditional waterproofing materials in terms of durability, environmental friendliness, and construction convenience have struggled to meet the higher demands of contemporary buildings for long-term safety, energy efficiency, and sustainability. Today, polymer waterproofing membranes, represented by PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride), TPO (Thermoplastic Polyolefin), and HDPE (High-Density Polyethylene), are leading a technological revolution with their superior performance, becoming the preferred solution for large public buildings, industrial plants, transportation hubs, and green roofs.
The review process for the 2025 "Science and Technology Award for Building Waterproofing Industry - Engineering Technology Award (Jinyu Award - Waterproofing Engineering)" and "Science and Technology Award for Building Waterproofing Industry - Technological Progress Award" has been completed and is now open for public comment. Among them, Canlon won a silver award for engineering technology with its "Jinji Lake Tunnel Main Waterproofing Project" case, once again powerfully demonstrating the excellent quality of the integrated waterproofing system.
On October 14-15, the 2025 Waterproofing and Anti-corrosion Technology Exchange Conference, guided by the China Construction Industry Association and hosted by the China Construction Industry Association's Building Waterproofing Branch, was held in Xi'an, Shaanxi Province. At the conference, the projects included in the 2025 white paper "High-quality Engineering Waterproofing Materials and Technologies" were announced, and the "Suzhou Bay Cultural Center (Suzhou Grand Theater, Wujiang Expo Center) Project , " in which Canlon participated in the construction, was honored to be selected.
Dear readers, do you still remember the underground comprehensive pipeline corridor in the Southern New City, Songjiang District, Shanghai? This municipal engineering project, for which Canlon was responsible for waterproofing the first phase, is a major municipal project in Songjiang District during the 13th Five-Year Plan period. With a total planned length of 24.7 kilometers and an estimated total investment of 3.5 billion yuan, it is Shanghai's largest comprehensive pipeline corridor pilot project. Incorporating the "sponge city" design concept, independent rainwater chambers are installed within the comprehensive pipeline corridor to discharge surface rainwater through detention, storage, and purification functions. Canlon MBP polymer self-adhesive membrane waterproofing membrane was selected as the waterproofing material.
Recently, an article titled "Integration Paved the Road to Revival, Karen Accompanying the High-speed Railway" was released by Flush Finance, focusing on the high-speed rail infrastructure sector, in-depth analysis of Canlon's strategic layout, and attracted widespread attention from the industry media and the capital market. Canlon reprinted this article for the first time to show you how the power of "integration" promotes China's high-speed rail to run out of "acceleration"
