Traffic Coatings and Waterproofing Membranes
Traffic Deck Coatings, Pedestrian Traffic Coatings, Balconies and more
A traffic-specific waterproofing coating or membrane is necessary to protect traffic-bearing concrete surfaces where moisture, high-use and chemicals exist can damage concrete and the underlying steel reinforcements become at risk for rust and corrosion. These structures include carparks, plazas, stadiums, balconies, rooftop terraces, condo parking garages; any concrete surface containing steel reinforcements beneath which, when permeated, could compromise structural stability. These structures are extremely expensive to fix if concrete and rebar damage has gone too far, often involving a new structure altogether. A properly installed traffic coating system not only prolongs the life of the structure, it creates a waterproof barrier for usable spaces below the concrete deck, allowing you to use the maximum space within your structure.
Many industrial flooring contractors sub out either the prep or the installation process. Not us.
AIF & our NACE-certified staff are certified & approved installers of the industry’s top traffic system suppliers like Sika, Tremco Sealants, BASF and every other industry-leading supplier. We’re also qualified to install more sophisticated systems such as PUMAs, MMAs and others. AIF is a proud member of the Sealant and Waterproofing Association, and leaders of the highest installation standards available on the market today.
Shot Blasters – For surface profiling and removing contaminants or old coatings to prepare the concrete substrate.
Grinders and Scarifiers – Used to level the surface, remove high spots, and create the proper texture for membrane adhesion.
Dust Collection Systems – Essential for maintaining a clean, safe environment during surface preparation by capturing airborne particles.
Moisture Meters – Used to check the moisture content in concrete before applying waterproofing membranes.
In addition to Traffic Coatings and Waterproofing Membranes, Applied Industrial Flooring offers complementary services:
Traffic coatings and waterproofing membranes are multi-layered systems designed to protect concrete surfaces from moisture, chemicals, and heavy use, while extending the structure’s lifespan. These coatings form a seamless, durable barrier that prevents water ingress and shields underlying steel reinforcements from rust and corrosion. Ideal for high-traffic areas like parking garages, balconies, and rooftop terraces, traffic coatings enhance structural integrity while offering customizable finishes for improved safety, functionality, and appearance.
Traffic membranes and waterproofing solves issues like:
Protects substrate and rebar from water damage and corrosion.
Strengthening the surface against heavy pedestrian and/or automotive traffic.
Lower costs by extending lifespan of concrete and minimizing cracks and breakdown.

Competitive pricing with detailed estimates.
Options for containment waterproofing solutions, polished concrete, concrete reinforcements and repairs and more.
Pedestrian and vehicular traffic coatings are typically a polyurethane system based on elastomeric properties, or a cementitious, breathable system for slab-on-grade application. These systems provides concrete structures and the rebar beneath superior protection to the elements by providing a waterproof coating, keeping moisture out of both the concrete surface, and the usable spaces beneath.
Light traffic pedestrian areas such as stadiums, bridges, balconies, rooftop terraces, pool decks and mechanical rooms utilize lighter traffic membrane applications. Heavier, vehicular-bearing protective membranes are typically applied to ramps, helical turns, ticket splitters, pedestrian decks, athletic surfaces, roof terraces and balconies.
Polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) and polyurethane methacrylate (PUMA) technology systems are known for their extreme lifespan elongation and flexibility. Their ultra-fast cure times, even in extreme temperatures, and lasting durability make them an ideal system for concrete decks, foundations and other surfaces exposed to water infiltration, chemicals or traffic abrasion.
