Targeted Bitumen Membrane Applications for Jordan

Different structural elements in Jordan require specific membrane properties to handle the unique stresses of soil conditions and roof exposure. While a thin coating might fail under constant water pressure or mechanical backfilling, our bitumen membranes are formulated to meet the exact technical demands of each sector. We assess the specific soil chemistry and structural loads of your facility to ensure the final installation provides the highest level of protection and long-term durability.

Industrial & Manufacturing Warehouses & Distribution Parking & Transport Specialty Environments

Manufacturing facilities in Jordan often house heavy underground infrastructure or require large-scale flat roof protection that can withstand industrial vibrations. Bitumen membranes provide the physical thickness necessary to resist the movement of heavy machinery and the thermal expansion of large concrete spans. Professional installation ensures that sensitive production areas remain dry, preventing expensive downtime caused by water damage to electrical systems or sub-grade pits.

  • Protects deep machinery pits and lift shafts from groundwater seepage.

  • Reduces the risk of structural dampness in heavy industrial zones.

  • Stops the penetration of moisture into sub-grade storage areas.

  • Improves the longevity of concrete slabs exposed to industrial washing.

  • Minimises the maintenance required for large-span factory roofs.

  • Lowers long-term facility repair expenses through heavy-duty sealing.

Logistics centres across Jordan require reliable roof and foundation protection to ensure inventory stays dry and free from mould. For large-scale flat roofs, bitumen membranes offer a cost-effective and highly durable solution that can handle maintenance foot traffic and the installation of solar arrays. Our multi-layer systems provide redundant protection, ensuring that even in the event of surface damage, the secondary layers keep the facility watertight.

  • Allows for the safe installation of rooftop equipment and solar panels.

  • Prevents water ingress in high-volume inventory storage zones.

  • Keeps the foundation dry to protect ground-level stock from rising damp.

  • Reduces the accumulation of moisture in concrete roof decks.

  • Protects large-span logistics facilities from seasonal flash flooding.

  • Increases the asset value of the distribution hub through structural preservation.

Exposed parking decks and transit terminals in Jordan are subject to heavy structural movement and the abrasive forces of vehicle traffic. Bitumen membranes are often used as the primary waterproofing layer beneath asphalt or concrete pavers because of their incredible "self-healing" properties and bond strength. This ensures that even under the weight of buses or heavy trucks, the water barrier remains intact, protecting the reinforced steel within the concrete structure.

  • Supports the structural safety of multi-story parking and bridge decks.

  • Resists the mechanical stresses of vehicle braking and turning.

  • Ensures a long-lasting water seal for underground transit tunnels.

  • Prevents the dripping of corrosive water onto vehicles in lower levels.

  • Maintains the structural integrity of public infrastructure assets.

  • Meets the highest international standards for transport-grade waterproofing.

Water treatment plants and agricultural storage facilities in Jordan require "tanking" solutions that can withstand constant water immersion. Bitumen membranes with anti-root additives are also essential for green roofs and landscaped podiums common in modern commercial developments. These specialty environments benefit from a material that is naturally resistant to biological attack and can handle the weight of saturated soil and irrigation systems.

  • Provides a permanent water seal for irrigation tanks and reservoirs.

  • Resists root penetration in landscaped commercial plazas.

  • Ensures the watertightness of decorative water features and fountains.

  • Prevents soil chemicals from attacking the concrete foundation.

  • Maintains the integrity of the water barrier in submerged environments.

  • Meets the specific technical requirements for agricultural water containment.

Key Advantages of Professional Bitumen Waterproofing

Investing in professional bitumen membrane installation provides immediate financial and operational rewards for your business. By creating a thick, multi-layered barrier, you eliminate the risk of water migration that can compromise the very foundation of your building. This proactive approach prevents the expensive and difficult task of repairing underground leaks once a building is complete.

Operational safety is significantly improved when basements and foundations remain bone-dry and free from structural rot. Heavy-duty bitumen membranes provide the peace of mind that your facility is protected against the most extreme weather events and high groundwater tables. Our high-performance materials are designed to last for decades, offering a much higher return on investment than liquid-only sealers in high-pressure applications.

Seamless torch-on joins stop the passage of water at the most vulnerable points.
Multi-layer thickness ensures a physical barrier against backfill and soil movement.
Fixing the waterproofing early prevents the need for invasive structural repairs later.
Helps your business meet Jordanian OHS and international engineering standards.
We provide bitumen systems specifically engineered to remain flexible during Jordan’s winter frost and summer heat.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between APP and SBS bitumen membranes?
APP (Atactic Polypropylene) is generally better for the hot Jordanian climate as it has a higher melting point and better UV resistance. SBS (Styrene-Butadiene-Styrene) is more elastic and performs better in colder highland regions where building movement is a primary concern.
Is a torch-on membrane better than a self-adhesive one?
Torch-on membranes are generally considered superior for industrial applications as the heat fuses the membrane to the substrate, creating a very strong bond. Self-adhesive membranes are excellent for areas where open flames are prohibited or for smaller, detailed residential work.
How do you protect the membrane during the backfilling of a foundation?
We always install a protection board (drainage board or dimpled sheet) over the membrane before backfilling. This prevents rocks and construction debris from puncturing the bitumen layer as the soil is compacted against the building.
How long does a professional bitumen waterproofing system last?
In below-grade applications where the membrane is protected from UV rays, a bitumen system can last for the entire life of the building. On exposed roofs, a well-maintained system with a mineral finish can easily provide 20+ years of protection.
How do you ensure the joints don't leak over time?
We use a "staggered joint" technique and a minimum 10cm overlap that is heat-welded to create a monolithic seal. Our team also performs a 24-hour flood test on flat areas to verify that every seam is 100% watertight before the project is handed over.
Can bitumen membranes be used for drinking water tanks?
Standard bitumen is not recommended for potable water; however, we offer specialized bitumen-based systems with certified coatings that are safe for drinking water. For most agricultural or industrial water storage, standard bitumen is a perfect, durable choice.
