Waterproofing is the practice of making any surface or structure water resistant by utilizing various techniques or membranes. This aids in the protection of ambient liquids from entering the system. Waterproofing solutions are mostly employed in commercial and institutional settings to avoid leaks in building structures. Water leakage from various portions of the building has been a source of concern due to leaking in the building, particularly from the roofs and walls.
Thailand Waterproofing Market Driving Factors and Challenges
Thailand's waterproofing business is expanding rapidly as a result of numerous main factors. For starters, the rise of the residential and commercial building and real estate industries has greatly raised demand for waterproofing solutions. With increased urbanization and infrastructure initiatives, there is a greater need to protect buildings from water damage, which drives the adoption of waterproofing technology.
Furthermore, Thailand's tropical climate, with significant rainfall and humidity, emphasizes the importance of appropriate waterproofing solutions to prevent structural damage, mold, and moisture-related difficulties. This climate aspect drives builders and property owners to invest in high-quality waterproofing systems to maintain the structural longevity and integrity.
Despite its potential for growth, Thailand's waterproofing sector confronts a number of challenges. One of the major challenges is the presence of low-quality and counterfeit waterproofing goods on the market, which can weaken the effectiveness of solutions and lead to premature failures. This endangers both property owners and the industry's reputation. Furthermore, the lack of defined regulations and enforcement procedures can result in irregular application practices and inferior craftsmanship, affecting the overall effectiveness of waterproofing systems.
The competitive situation is also an issue, as various companies compete for market share, potentially leading to price wars and an emphasis on cost-cutting techniques that may impair the quality of waterproofing systems.
Impact of COVID-19 on Thailand Waterproofing Market
The COVID-19 outbreak had a huge impact on Thailand's waterproofing industry, providing both challenges and opportunities. Demand for waterproofing solutions fluctuates due to construction activity halts and supply chain delays induced by lockdowns and restrictions. Developers and builders were cautious in their expenditure due to project delays and uncertainties, affecting total market growth. To address these difficulties, companies like as Act (Thailand) Co., Ltd., BASF (Thailand) Limited, and others had to adapt their strategies.
The epidemic, on the other hand, underscored the need of waterproofing in safeguarding structures from the elements, drawing attention to durable and long-lasting solutions.
