Moisture infiltration and water leakage into buildings, water wastage, water conduits like streams and drains, and leaks from tanks and pools are all challenges that have historically plagued the construction industry. Engineers and professionals in this field have consistently sought reliable and durable methods to address these issues.
Today, various solutions exist for controlling water and moisture ingress in construction projects; however, decision-making in this regard is often fraught with concerns due to limited options available in the Iranian market.
Considering the substantial investment in light of economic justifications and the multitude of items available in the construction engineering industry, a specialized perspective on each of these items has gained particular significance due to the rapid scientific and practical developments.
The NSG specialized and engineering group, with a scientific and specialized approach in researching and identifying quality products, has provided a reliable and economical choice to the civil engineering industry by utilizing modern experiences and execution methods.
All building materials made from mineral substances exhibit capillary properties in water absorption and are inherently considered hydrophilic and absorbent surfaces.
This selection may have been suitable for certain applications, but in many situations, it has been used as the only alternative and has never adequately addressed the needs of specialists and their clients, leading to ongoing uncertainty and concerns among engineers in this industry.
Considering this issue in modern construction, we find that today, due to:
- Ineffectiveness of bituminous coatings in various locations
- Environmental issues and health risks associated with petroleum derivatives
- Rising prices of oil and its derivatives
- Execution hazards arising from heating and melting methods of bitumen and its products
- Instability in adhesion, flexibility, and integrity of bituminous coatings and their derivatives under various regional and seasonal climatic conditions
- Need for specialized execution teams
- High vulnerability and potential for puncturing during and after application
- Inability to apply protective coverings using building materials such as grout and cement mortars, tiles, ceramics, stone, etc., without intermediaries
The use of bituminous coatings and asphalt-based products is significantly less and more limited in all advanced countries in the construction industry compared to their volume of use in Iran.
Application of NSG Products:
- Sealing all surfaces exposed to direct water flow and accumulation.
- Exceptional adhesion to various surfaces and integration of different surfaces.
- Isolating walls and floors in sanitary facilities, bathrooms, pools, saunas, jacuzzis, kitchens, terraces, various water features, drinking water tanks, fish farming ponds, etc.
- Isolation of damp basements or those capable of moisture absorption from lateral surfaces.
- Repairing and sealing the interior spaces of buildings.
- Isolating foundations and beams without restricting wall construction and the use of mesh.
- Retaining walls that are exposed to moisture after backfilling.
- Creating coverings for channels directing agricultural runoff.
- Filling cracks in concrete and cement surfaces and walls.
