Waterproofing Membranes Market: By Product (Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC), Bitumen, TPO, Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer (EPDM), and Others), By Application (Building Structures, Tunnels & Landfills, Roofing & Walls, Bridges & Highways, and Others), By Type (Liquid Applied Membranes, and Sheet Based Membranes) and Geography  

Waterproofing Membranes Market size was valued at USD 28.06 billion in 2022 and poised to reach USD 43.03 billion by 2029 growing at a significant CAGR of 6.3% from 2024-2030. Manufacturers increasingly obtain green certification for usage in sustainable construction projects such as green roofs and green buildings. Green roofs are any building's roof structures that are covered in vegetation, either entirely or partially. Green roofs reduce energy expenditures, reduce the urban heat island effect, and reduce stormwater runoff while also removing dangerous air pollutants. The market is growing due to rising demand for residential and commercial spaces and increased investments in the construction of water conservation and wastewater treatment facilities. Focus on the development of hygiene powder coatings is anticipated to create lucrative opportunities for the market players in the waterproofing membranes market. Development of environmentally safe products and strategic collaborations & acquisitions provide lucrative opportunities for the market. Based on product, the bitumen has a significant share of global waterproofing membranes market with a share of 43.7% in 2021 in the global market and projected to grow at 7.5% CAGR over 2023 to 2029 owing to temperature resistant and cost-efficient characteristics. Moreover, bitumen production is economical, and the melting point of bitumen is low.
