Implementing Triflex Waterproofing Solutions for Complex Roofing at Long Thanh International Airport

From technical training to compliant execution under real site conditions

In large-scale infrastructure projects such as airports, roof waterproofing is a critical discipline that demands not only high-performance materials but also correct technical understanding and precise on-site execution — especially for complex roofing systems.

Following an in-depth technical training program at the workshop of VIVABLAST, the Triflex technical team continued with on-site mock-up and hands-on training at Long Thanh International Airport for the installation team of ATAD.

This step ensured that technical knowledge was not only transferred theoretically, but also applied correctly under actual construction conditions.

 

On-site training – a critical step for complex roofing structures

Unlike conventional buildings, airport roofing systems typically involve:

  • Large-scale steel structures
  • Multiple roof penetrations and interfaces
  • High exposure to thermal movement and weather conditions

In such environments, on-site training and mock-up execution play a decisive role. Conducting training directly at the project site enables the installation team to:

  • Fully understand the technical requirements of each roofing detail
  • Practice correct application methods on real structures
  • Adapt installation techniques to site-specific conditions

From workshop to site, the consistent objective is to ensure that the waterproofing solution is executed in full compliance with technical standards and aligned with the project’s long-term operational requirements.

 

 

Triflex waterproofing solutions for complex and demanding roofing systems

1. Engineered for critical roofing details

Triflex is a leading European specialist in liquid-applied PMMA waterproofing systems, specifically designed for areas most vulnerable to water ingress, including:

  • Joints and transitions
  • Roof penetrations and steel supports
  • Complex metal structures subject to movement

Unlike conventional sheet or membrane systems, Triflex forms a fully bonded, seamless waterproofing layer with excellent adhesion to metal substrates, while maintaining long-term flexibility to accommodate structural movement.

2. Meeting the stringent requirements of airport infrastructure

Airport projects impose strict demands on roofing systems, including:

  • Long service life
  • Resistance to weathering and UV exposure
  • High-quality execution under tight quality control

Triflex systems enable precise application at complex detailing areas, rapid curing, and effective quality assurance during installation. When combined with structured technical training and on-site supervision, this approach significantly reduces the risk of future waterproofing failures.
