Plaza Deck Solutions
Waterproofing membranes designed to meet rigorous demands of decks and terraces
Global with plaza deck solutions
Innovations in 1970s Europe have now become global best practices as architects and planners recognize the deep benefits of amenity spaces that break up cityscape sprawl. Keeping pace with this movement since the beginning, Siplast's Research and Development used our SBS-modified bitumen technology to help create an innovative waterproofing membrane capable of meeting the rigorous demands of plaza deck applications. Today, Siplast continues to offer technologies engineered for plaza decks, including liquid-applied options, to continue supporting the worldwide push to improve the experience and impact of the built environment for decades to come.
SBS Modified-Bitumen
Revolutionary styrene-butadiene-styrene (SBS) modified bitumens were developed by Siplast in partnership with Shell Chemical of Europe in the late 1960s. This elastomeric blend of asphalt and SBS is highly durable and capable of exceptional elongation and recovery properties over a wide range of temperatures. This resilient blend provided the foundation for Teranap, Siplast's two-ply waterproofing system based on proven roof membrane design. With enhanced flexibility, elasticity, and puncture resistance, the Teranap Waterproofing System is engineered to meet the intense demands of plaza deck applications for years.
PMMA Liquid-Applied
The efficiency and performance features of PMMA benefit plaza deck applications as well as roof assemblies. Siplast Terapro is formulated to protect against the unique demands of exposed structural elements such as balconies, terraces, walkways, and parking decks -- and look great while doing it. Terapro Systems are available in many color and aggregate options to allow these highly visible spaces to function beautifully.
Polyurethane (PUR)
Siplast Terapro PUR Deck Coatings are an effective, economical solution suitable for protecting lower decks, intermediate parking garages, and parking spaces, as well as for surfaces outside of trafficable areas, such as balconies. Our Terapro PUR product line consists of polyurethane- and polyurea-based coatings providing concrete protection and skid resistance1 to help protect against wear from light to medium vehicular and pedestrian traffic.
Hot-Applied Rubberized Asphalt
Hot-applied rubberized asphalt membranes are designed to provide seamless waterproofing for large surface areas. Siplast's PA-750 Hot-Applied Waterproofing System is comprised of PA-750 Hot-Applied Rubberized Asphalt and PA-750 Reinforcing Fabric and provides a fast-setting, fully bonded, monolithic membrane designed for waterproofing approved and properly prepared substrates for plaza deck, protected/ballasted, and other covered applications.

Liquid-Applied Vehicular & Pedestrian Coating Assemblies
Not all parking garages and pedestrian spaces need coatings with the same level of durability. Different durabilities can be achieved by how the system is assembled and the number of layers used. Siplast’s full portfolio of Terapro deck coatings provides a comprehensive solution, as it allows for hybrid systems and tailored applications.
