Market Highlights
The Waterproofing Sheet Membrane Market is estimated to grow at a healthy CAGR of 5.0% during the forecast period to reach a value of US$ 29.3 billion in 2028.
Sheet membranes are a popular choice for application areas exposed to extreme stress and moisture. It has tough and thick membranes featuring strong adhesion properties to bond to most surfaces. Sheet membranes are designed to provide a barrier against water and other liquids. They are easy to install and compatible with various building materials. The membrane's performance is critical to its ability to withstand hydrostatic pressure, resist punctures or tears, and provide long-lasting protection against water intrusion. Sheet membranes should be selected based on the specific needs of the building and the intended application.
The waterproofing industry has witnessed an increasing use of self-adhering sheet membranes due to their ease of installation and reduced labor costs. These membranes have a pre-applied adhesive layer that eliminates the need for separate adhesives. Besides, there is also a growing interest in prefabricated systems, which are gaining popularity due to improved quality control and a reduced risk of errors during installation. Sheet membrane dominates the overall waterproofing market with an estimated share of more than 65% on a value basis.
The waterproofing sheet membrane market is witnessing an upward growth trajectory, driven by a multitude of factors, including increasing demand from the construction industry, heightened awareness regarding efficient waterproofing, innovative technological solutions, stringent government regulations, escalating demand for eco-friendly alternatives, expanding infrastructure projects, and rapid urbanization. Furthermore, waterproofing sheet membrane demand is triggered by several factors, including its ability to offer uniform thickness, high strength, ease of installation, low cost of installation, and quick installation time.
Recent Market JVs and Acquisitions:
The market has recorded a fair number of M&A activities over the years. There have been some notable acquisitions over the past few years, with the acquisition of Derbigum Americas by Soprema in 2018 being one of the major ones.

By Material Type
Among material types, bitumen has established itself as the undisputed leader in the global waterproofing sheet membrane market, prevailing across major regions. Its exceptional performance, unparalleled durability, and cost-effectiveness have made it the material of choice for a wide range of construction applications. Bitumen's remarkable versatility and ease of use further contribute to its popularity, enabling it to meet the needs of diverse construction projects.
By Application Type
The market is segmented into roofing & walls, building structures, industrial, water & wastewater management, tunnels, and others. The roofing & wall segment dominates the market, with significant usage of sheet membranes in the application areas. Terraces and roofs are particularly vulnerable to rainwater, significantly increasing the likelihood of leaks. However, using a sheet membrane creates a highly effective barrier that prevents water penetration. With their exceptional flexibility at low temperatures, impressive dimensional stability at high temperatures, and ease of application under hot-melt conditions, these waterproofing membranes offer an all-around superior solution.
Regional Analysis
The Asia-Pacific region is projected to retain its position as the largest market for sheet membranes during the forecast period and is expected to experience the most significant growth in the coming years. This growth can be attributed to several major factors, including increasing construction activities due to rapid urbanization and industrialization, promising economic growth, and a shift of manufacturing industries from Western economies to Asian economies. Additionally, the implementation of building and energy codes is driving the demand for waterproofing solutions in the region. Key economies such as China and India are playing a vital role in driving the growth of the sheet membrane market in the region.
