Waterproofing is an essential part of modern construction. It ensures the longevity of a building and the health and comfort of its occupants. Professional builders need innovative, quick-to-apply, and durable sealing technologies that can be used in the most demanding conditions. The Matizol® series of liquid waterproofing membranes from the Selena Group, a global leader in the production and distribution of construction chemicals, offers exactly that.
Polymers in the Fight Against Moisture
At the heart of the innovative Matizol® series is advanced water-based polymer technology. These polymer molecules form a compact pattern with high elasticity, which effectively protects against water penetration. This ensures the long-lasting protection of insulated surfaces, making them resistant to weather conditions, UV radiation, and intensive use. Furthermore, these products are environmentally friendly and safe for contractors — they are solvent-free and nearly odorless.
Matizol® liquid waterproofing membranes also address the challenges of modern construction, an extremely dynamic field where efficiency and speed are paramount. The revolutionary technology in these membranes makes them ready to use without primers or additional protective layers. They can be applied with a roller, brush, or sprayer, which is intuitive and quick. This significantly reduces the time needed to complete the project. Matizol® solutions are comprehensive. The product line includes options tailored to various waterproofing needs.
A watertight roof provides peace of mind
Every roof deteriorates over time, regardless of the type of covering or function of the building. As the highest point of a building, it is naturally exposed to extreme weather conditions, and its protective layer may cease to function properly over the years. This is why reliable waterproofing is crucial. The Matizol® range includes products for flat and pitched roofs.
Among waterproofing solutions for flat roofs, Matizol® Elite Tech is particularly noteworthy — it is a hybrid membrane designed for heavily used surfaces, such as utility roofs, garages, and parking lots. Thanks to its resistance to standing water and wheel traffic, as well as its applicability at temperatures ranging from 32°F to 113°F, Elite Tech performs well even in harsh weather conditions. Its high vapor permeability (SD 1) allows it to be applied to damp substrates. Due to its fast drying time, it becomes resistant to rain just two hours after application (at 20°C).
The range of products for flat roofs also includes Matizol Fiber Roof. This fiber-reinforced elastomeric membrane is designed for renovating damaged roofs, especially those with irregular surfaces, such as old bituminous roofing felt. It can be applied in a single layer without additional reinforcing nonwoven fabric and comes with a seven-year durability guarantee, regardless of weather conditions.
Matizol Color Roof is the ideal solution for sloping roofs. It is a flexible, colored waterproofing coating available in five colors: terracotta, gray, white, red, and green. Designed for renovating roofs made of sheet metal, roofing felt, concrete, or shingles, the product’s easy application (two coats without priming) saves time and money without compromising aesthetics or durability.
A rest area without a trace of moisture
After each winter, building owners eagerly tidy up their balconies and terraces. In doing so, they often discover dampness and structural damage caused by harsh winter weather conditions. Matizol® products dedicated to these areas come to the rescue.
Of particular note is Matizol Elite Deck, a membrane with added quartz sand that provides anti-slip properties and resistance to intensive use. Elite Deck can be used as the top layer of the Elite Tech system to create a non-slip surface. Elite Deck combines durability with high aesthetics, even on surfaces exposed to standing water. The unique combination of resins allows the coating to be applied in temperatures ranging from 0°C to +45°C. Its high adhesion means no primer is required, and its self-leveling properties make application simple.
Matizol Trans Deck, a transparent membrane with P3 resistance class, has been developed for those who want to preserve the original appearance of tiles or terrace slabs. It is resistant to intensive use and does not yellow under the influence of UV rays. It can be applied in a single layer without priming.
The Matizol® product range also includes Matizol Color Deck, a colored coating designed to protect and finish newly built terraces and balconies and revitalize existing finishes. It can be used on concrete slabs, stoneware, roofing felt, and ceramic tiles. The product is available in four colors.
The Matizol® waterproofing system is complemented by solutions for waterproofing details, vertical surfaces, and flashings. Matizol Elite Tixo deserves special attention among them. It is a thixotropic hybrid membrane that is ideal for protecting expansion joints, connections, and surfaces that are difficult to cover with traditional products. It can also be used to fill small joints (up to 1 mm) before applying the main layers of the system. The product is characterized by excellent adhesion, high vapor permeability, and the ability to be applied at temperatures as low as 32°F, with rain resistance achieved in just two hours.
On the topic of terraces, Matizol Evomer 1 K Resist is a unique product. It is a heavy-duty waterproofing membrane ideal for demanding foundations and ventilated terraces. Its unique formula allows for application without priming and creates a thin-layer coating with high elasticity and mechanical resistance. This guarantees the tightness of the terrace and comfort, even on intensively used surfaces.
In addition to liquid membranes, the Waterproof line includes specialized tapes, reinforcing nonwovens, and preparations for insulating details and vertical surfaces. This enables the creation of a complete, durable waterproofing system. The innovative Matizol® membranes combine advanced technology with ease of use and long-lasting results, answering the needs of modern designers, investors, and contractors. Matizol® Waterproof series products form the basis of modern waterproofing systems that effectively protect buildings from the destructive effects of moisture.
