The traditional waterproof rubber sheet has many shortages such as poor aging resistance and water resistance. The new waterproof rubber sheet has excellent weather resistance and water resistance, making construction more convenient and efficient.

The traditional waterproof rubber sheet generally refers to a waterproof membrane such as ointment or petroleum tire linoleum. These waterproof rubber sheet are generally used for waterproofing of some houses in rural areas.

Traditional waterproof rubber sheet often have the following disadvantages: poor aging resistance, low elongation, poor water resistance, and so on. If the traditional waterproof rubber sheet is used for roof waterproofing, it usually needs to be repaired or replaced in a few years, and the service life is short. In addition, the traditional waterproof rubber sheet is easily deformed when exposed to high temperatures, and it is extremely easy to burn when exposed to open flames, so there may be a fire hazard. Due to its poor performance characteristics, it is not suitable for its waterproof.


Compared with the poor performance of traditional waterproof rubber sheet, the new waterproof rubber sheet has excellent waterproof performance and weather resistance, safety and environmental protection, and convenient and efficient construction. The new waterproof rubber sheet and waterproof coating subvert the defects of the traditional waterproof rubber sheet, and have greatly improved in weather resistance, water resistance, safety and other aspects, and is more convenient and efficient in installation and construction. In the past 10 years, the development and improvement of the waterproof material has made great progress and improvement in various aspects such as waterproof engineering design, product quality and construction efficiency. The use of waterproof rubber sheet has been subdivided more clearly, and the waterproof requirements of the building's various parts  have more specific rules.

Of course, there are still some problems with the waterproof rubber sheet on the market, but all are in the norm and developing in a good direction.
