GROUP VISION STATEMENT

“THROUGH THE DEVELOPMENT,

PRODUCTION, MARKETING AND

SALES OF HIGH PERFORMANCE

PUMA BASED MATERIALS, FORM

A GROUP THAT IS RECOGNIZED

AS A LEADER AND SOURCE OF

MATERIALS THAT ENHANCE THE

DURABILITY, PERFORMANCE AND

SERVICE LIFE OF ENGINEERED

CONRETE AND STEEL STRUCTURES”

SYNOPSISThe development of Matacryl PUMA Bridge Deck

Waterproofi ng Membranes, which are effectively a

combination of Polyurethane and MMA, was a signifi cant

milestone since PUMA Waterproofi ng Systems are

capable of overcoming all the limitations imposed

by conventional MMA or Polyurethane and Polyurea

systems.

In addition to being applied at very low temperatures

and setting within 60 minutes, the cured membrane

will also offer a fl exibility that allows cracks in excess

of 3.5 mm to be bridged even at temperatures as

low as -20°C. This means that PUMA Systems may

be applied all year round and that once installation

commences, the ‘possession’ or downtime, is

overcome since there is very little waiting time

between successive coats and eventual handover

for use etc.

INTRODUCTIONThe use of PUMA (Polyurethane Methyl

Methacrylate) resin based Bridge Deck

Waterproofing Systems arose due

to the limitations that conventional

MMA and other resin based systems

offered. Specifically these were

related to insufficient crack bridging

capabilities and most notably in colder

weather climates, such as Canada,

Northern USA, Scandinavia, Russia and

other regions with extreme weather

conditions.

The rapid setting characteristics of

MMA, however, made it both suitable

and practical to employ, since the setting

and curing installation properties were

not adversely affected by ambient

temperatures. In effect PUMA Systems

may be applied at temperatures as low

as –20°C but will still set and typically

be ready for use within 60 minutes, for

example.

PERFORMANCE BENEFITSMatacryl PUMA Resins exceed performance of MMA and conventional resin based systems for the following reasons:

Suffi ciently resilient even after 45 – 60 minutes of being applied to allow hot rolled asphalt equipment to traffi c Matacryl Membrane without protection board.

Extreme impact resistance when tested according to AREMA (American Rail Ballast Indentation Certifi cation) and SNCF standards. Full BBA and ASTM Certifi cation.

Will adhere well to dry and clean surfaces including steel and pipe outlets etc.

Bond of membrane in excess of concrete tensile or cohesive strengths.

Flexibility suffi cient to bridge cracks in excess of3.5 mm in well below freezing conditions.

Will resist rain and snow within 45 – 60 minutes of installation.

Very easily repaired if willfully or accidentally damaged.

Rapid setting and curing enables limited ‘possession’ and rapid handover irrespective of ambient conditions.

INSTALLATION BENEFITS FOR MATACRYL SYSTEMS• Very few limitations for installation at varying

temperatures.

• Rapid setting and curing minimises costly possession and facilitates almost immediate use.

• Non absorbent and impermeable.

• Tenacious bond to concrete and steel surfaces.

• Chemical (fusion) bonding between subsequent coatings minimises chances of any debonding.

• Seamless protection.

• Resilient and even resists indentation by ballast.

• Crack bridging even at below sub zero temperatures.

• Lower densities on fl exural members.

• Quicker installation than conventional asphalt/HRA applications.

• Easily repaired where applicable.

• Superior wear resistance compared to conventional wearing courses.
