Terapro Waterproofing & Surfacing Systems
In the 1930s when polymethyl methacrylate resins, commonly known as PMMA, were first synthesized. Practical applications for the new resin, which included everything from aircraft windshields to dentures, soon followed. The material proved to be exceptionally durable, and the use of PMMA grew rapidly. But in spite of its outstanding performance, the material was too rigid for use in waterproofing applications – until the 1970s.
