Architectural Coatings & Technical Waterproofing Systems
High-durability surface protection systems engineered for commercial, industrial, and residential substrates across Zimbabwe. Designed for atmospheric protection, moisture defense, and extended structural lifecycle.
SYSTEM 01
High-Durability Wall Coatings & Decorative Finishes
Engineered exterior and interior wall coating systems formulated for superior UV stability, atmospheric resistance, and colour retention. Applied over properly primed masonry, off-shutter concrete, and plastered substrates.
- UV & Atmospheric Resistance: Prevents chalking, fading, and thermal degradation.
- Crack-Bridging Capability: Flexible elastomeric formulations accommodate minor substrate movement.
- Breathable Coating Matrix: Allows trapped moisture vapour to escape while blocking liquid water ingress.
SYSTEM 02
Sub-structure Waterproofing & Moisture Barriers
Heavy-duty liquid membranes, cementitious waterproofing slurry, and torch-on membrane systems designed to eliminate dampness, rising moisture, and hydrostatic water pressure across sub-structures, roofs, and retaining walls.
- Sub-structure Damp Isolation: Seals concrete footings and foundation walls against groundwater penetration.
- Seamless Membrane Application: Eliminates joint vulnerabilities common in standard sheet systems.
- Hydrostatic Head Defense: Resists high lateral water pressure in below-grade structures.
SYSTEM 03
Cemplast Application & Turnkey Site Management
Specialised cement-based decorative plasters and turnkey surface management for large-scale developments. We manage the complete lifecycle from substrate profiling to specialized finish application and quality sign-off.
- Architectural Plaster Aesthetics: Delivers concrete-look, textured, and mineral architectural wall surfaces.
- Turnkey Project Management: Single point of responsibility for material specification, labor, and site supervision.
- Substrate Bond Integrity: Applied with specialized bonding agents to guarantee adhesion to structural plaster.

APPLICATION PROTOCOL
Mandatory Substrate Preparation Requirements
1. Moisture Testing
Substrates must register below specified moisture percentage thresholds prior to applying primers or membranes to avoid blistering.
2. Surface Profiling
Laitance, loose plaster, efflorescence, and contaminants must be mechanically removed to create an ideal anchor profile.
3. Specialized Priming
High-penetration alkali-resistant primers are applied to stabilize porous masonry and ensure permanent coating adhesion.
