Staying at the forefront of industry advancements isn’t an option, it’s a must. We’re excited to announce that the GroupCMG team has completed another certification course! This time, it’s TREMCO Commercial Sealants & Waterproofing’s specialized products education and training program!
TREMCO, a leader in commercial sealants, coatings, and waterproofing products, offers education programs that provide hands-on product application training. This program covered a range of TREMCO waterproofing and Dryvit coating systems, including products featuring polyurethane methacrylate (PUMA) technology. We wanted to take the opportunity to sharpen our skills with insights from experts like Joel Lescault and Logan Laderoute, helping us provide enhanced protection on future waterproofing projects.
Traffic Toppings & Waterproofing Matter
Whether dealing with heavy vehicle traffic, pedestrian walkways, or exterior wall coatings, waterproofing and protective coatings are essential to preserving your structure’s integrity and longevity. Here are some of the products and takeaways from our training. Property managers, building owners, and facility operators take note!
Extreme Wear Traffic Membranes: Built for High-Use Areas
Parking decks, loading docks, and pedestrian walkways take a constant beating from vehicles, foot traffic, de-icing salts, and environmental elements. Extreme wear waterproof traffic deck membranes and coating systems with PUMA technology offer abrasion resistance, waterproofing, and chemical durability, helping ensure long-term performance in demanding conditions. Our team was able to practice the application of this membrane, get expert feedback, and become more knowledgeable on giving properties the strongest defence against wear and tear.
Hybrid Traffic Coating System: Flexibility Meets Strength
Some waterproofing membranes create a trade-off between flexibility and durability. Hybrid PUMA traffic coating systems bridge that gap, offering fast curing times, superior elasticity, and robust protection against water infiltration and structural movement. The training covered the best practices for installation, layering techniques, and long-term maintenance. This means we’re able to provide solutions that are more resistant to things like cracking, temperature fluctuations, and surface fatigue.
PUMA Flashing System: The Ultimate Waterproof Seal
Industry-leading technology and innovation that you won’t find anywhere else. This new application method/system has specifically been designed to save time and eliminate common failure points. PUMA flashing for hot rubberized asphalt offers a durable, seamless solution that prevents water infiltration at critical transition points like corners, joints, and terminations. Our team’s training covered precise application techniques, adhesion processes, and troubleshooting methods so waterproofing installations stay sealed, watertight, and resilient over time.
Dryvit Wall Coatings: Protection & Aesthetics in One
A well-protected building exterior isn’t just about functionality, so let’s talk looks! Dryvit wall coating solutions combine water repellency, impact resistance, and aesthetics. For these reasons, products like Demandit Advantage and Demandit Smooth are ideal for commercial and residential buildings, and our team is now trained in their best application methods. Don’t you want your building to benefit from long-lasting and low-maintenance exterior finishes that look great?
