What is Acrylic Waterproofing Coating?
Acrylic waterproofing is a liquid applied coating used to protect roofs, walls, balconies, foundations, and even bathrooms from water damage before it becomes a costly problem.
It is made from acrylic polymers and goes on to dry to a flexible, UV resistant film that is undaunted by cracking, moisture or mild chemicals. It is water based, eco-friendly and fast drying, easy for residential and commercial jobs.

History of Acrylic Waterproofing
Acrylic’s story begins in 1934 when BASF developed the first acrylic resin dispersion, which was patented by Rohm and Haas. In the 1940s, rubber-based coatings led the way for liquid waterproofing. Acrylics emerged in the 1960s and ’70s as a better, more flexible option.
In the late 1970s, Rohm & Haas introduced elastomeric acrylic roof coating technology, which significantly reduced VOC emissions. The 1990s saw the arrival of water-based acrylic membranes that had low toxicity and improved UV stability. This technology set the standard that Bangladesh’s construction industry still uses today.


Why Choose Acrylic Waterproofing?
Bangladesh’s heat, monsoon rains, and humidity punish roofs year after year. You need more than a temporary fix, you need a roof leak solution that actually lasts.
Acrylic waterproofing coating forms a seamless, flexible membrane that moves with your building instead of cracking under pressure. It’s UV resistant, so scorching summer sun won’t degrade it. It breathes – letting trapped moisture escape without letting rainwater in.
Unlike heavy bituminous systems, acrylic roof coating in Bangladesh is water-based, low-VOC, and safe to apply in occupied buildings.
Smart protection. Lower cost. Less hassle. That’s why thousands of homeowners and contractors choose acrylic waterproofing every year.
Advanced Roof Protection Solution
Built for Protection, Durability & Long-Term Performanc
Acrylic waterproofing combines durability, flexibility, and weather resistance to protect roofs from leakage, cracks, and heat damage for years.
Benefits
- Direct Application on Existing Overlays: Can be applied directly on old concrete without removing existing layers, avoiding structural damage.
- No Protection Screed Layer Is Needed: Eliminates the need for additional protection screeds, removing extra dead weight from the roof structure.
Excellent All Climate and UV Durability: Delivers long-term resistance against harsh weather conditions, including continuous UV rays attack.
- High Breathability & Strong Bond: Excellent adhesion to concrete surfaces while allowing trapped water vapor to escape.
- Advanced Chemical & Ion Barrier: Protects surfaces from carbon dioxide, chloride, and harmful sulphate ions.
Usages Area
Roofs & Terraces: Creates a seamless, UV-resistant shield on exposed flat, sloped, or metal roofs.
- External Walls: Acts as a flexible, weather-resistant coating that seals hairline cracks against heavy rain.
- Wet Areas: Protects bathroom, kitchen, and laundry floors from leaking into lower levels when applied under tiles.
- Balconies & Patios: Guards outdoor pedestrian areas against moisture while handling natural structure movement.
- Water Features & Gutters: Lines concrete fountains, drainage channels, and roof gutters to ensure leak-free water flow.
Our Acrylic Waterproofing Application
Surface Preparation: Clean the surface completely, repair all cracks, and ensure it is entirely dry to prevent blistering.
Priming: Apply a dedicated or diluted acrylic primer to seal the porous substrate and maximize bonding strength.
Joint Reinforcement: Embed a fiber mesh into the wet coating at 90-degree corners and pipe joints for extra strength.
First Main Coat: Apply the first full, undiluted coat evenly using a roller, brush, or airless spray gun.
Second Main Coat: Apply the final coat perpendicular to the first layer once it is completely dry to eliminate pinholes.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does acrylic waterproofing coating last in Bangladesh?
With proper surface preparation and professional application, Fountech’s acrylic waterproofing coating lasts 10 to 15 years, even under Bangladesh’s harsh monsoon and UV conditions.
What is the cost of Acrylic Waterproofing in Bangladesh?
The cost of acrylic waterproofing varies based on thickness, surface condition, and project size. It is usually an affordable option that lasts a long time and requires little maintenance.
Can acrylic waterproofing be applied to an already-painted surface?
Yes but the existing coating must be sound and well-adhered. Loose, flaking, or chalky paint must be removed first. Fountech’s team assesses existing surfaces before every project.
Is acrylic waterproofing suitable for flat roofs?
Absolutely. Flat roofs are one of the most common applications for acrylic waterproofing coating, particularly in Bangladesh where flat-roof buildings are standard.
Do you offer waterproofing services outside Dhaka?
Yes. Fountech provides acrylic waterproofing services across Bangladesh, including Chittagong, Gazipur, Narayanganj, Sylhet, and other major cities and industrial zones.
