Dai Xin Waterproof has partnered with the international century-old company W.R. Grace & Co. (Grace), introducing the "Bituthene Grace Membrane", which has the highest market share in the waterproofing market in Europe, the United States, South Korea, Singapore, and Hong Kong. Its membrane is a roll-shaped package with strong adhesive properties that can be applied quickly and cleanly, and no heating equipment is required. It is available in different grades for use in different construction environments, from -4 degrees Celsius in Europe to temperatures as high as 50 degrees Celsius in the Middle East. It also introduces the "Preprufe Pre-laid Waterproof Membrane", "Grace Shield Ultra-Flexible Waterproof Membrane", and "Quick-Curing Waterproof Membrane" produced by Grace, to provide architects with more diverse waterproofing product options.
The Bituthene Graphene Membrane was invented by Grace Company, which is the first to produce adhesive tarpaulin. This product has complete connectivity at the overlapping construction areas, and the double-cross HDPE layer provides comprehensive stability and high tear strength, as well as excellent resistance to penetration and impact performance, thus ensuring high-efficiency waterproofing performance. In addition to being installed according to the site planning, Grace products have been used for more than 10 years worldwide. Their physical properties are also above the required standards, making them suitable for architects to use as a reference. Moreover, the elongation rate of the waterproofing membrane can reach 200%, and the tensile strength and high puncture resistance of 200N are also above the requirements.
Grace was founded in 1854 and is headquartered in Columbia Heights, Maryland, USA. The company operates globally in the production and sales of specialty chemicals and materials. According to U.S. stock market analysis, the company has a market capitalization of $4.872 billion. Its main business includes Grace Catalysts Technology, Material Technology, and Building Materials Products. In addition, Grace also manufactures special construction chemicals such as concrete additive, fiber concrete, and pre-mixed concrete solutions, and has special construction materials applied to new construction projects such as waterproofing roll materials and roofing membranes, as well as applications in water and soil retention, gas extraction barriers, cement grout and mortar, passive fire protection materials (PFP), decorative building concrete products, etc. Therefore, the company’s leading global technology has enabled “Dai Xin Waterproofing” to partner with Grace when Grace announced in 2015 that it would separate its catalyst technology and material technology divisions into two independent publicly listed companies and create a new business entity (GCP Applied Technologies Inc.) to manage its building products and Darex packaging technology. Dai Xin immediately partnered with Grace to work together, striving to lead the Taiwanese waterproofing industry to use the world’s most advanced materials while combining “exclusive enhanced construction techniques” to shape new directions for the domestic waterproofing industry and lead the trend.
