The application fields of thermoplastic polyolefin (TPO) waterproofing membranes continue to expand, and the industry shows great development potential

TPO waterproofing membrane is a thermoplastic polyolefin waterproofing membrane, which is prepared by mixing petroleum resin, propylene, ethylene, acetic acid and other resin base materials with antioxidants, antioxidants, flame retardants, softeners and other additives The new waterproof membrane belongs to a category of synthetic polymer waterproof materials. According to different raw materials, TPO waterproofing membranes can be divided into homogeneous thermoplastic polyolefin waterproofing membranes, thermoplastic polyolefin waterproofing membranes with fiber backing, thermoplastic polyolefin waterproofing membranes reinforced in fabrics, etc.

Compared with other waterproof membranes, TPO waterproof membranes have strong radiation resistance, low energy consumption, good acid and alkali resistance, strong cold resistance, long service life, green environmental protection, good anti-aging performance, strong fatigue resistance, and welding Due to its high strength, it is mainly used in underground buildings, municipal pipe corridors, tunnels and other light energy-saving buildings. It is the first choice waterproof material for large industrial plants, public buildings, etc.

At the same time, under the background of the continuous strengthening of domestic environmental protection supervision and the continuous advancement of dual-carbon goals, building-integrated photovoltaic (BIPV), as a new green building that integrates photovoltaic power generation, energy storage, DC power distribution, and flexible power consumption, is playing an important role in The construction process continues to accelerate under the background of strong policy support. Among them, photovoltaic roofs, as an important part of photovoltaic buildings, need to have good waterproof performance, excellent durability and reliability. However, traditional building waterproof materials are difficult to meet such needs. Therefore, TPO waterproofing with better durability and environmental protection performance The membrane perfectly matches the waterproofing needs of photovoltaic buildings and has become one of the market segments with great development potential.

At present, the application scenarios of TPO waterproof membrane are constantly expanding, and it plays an important role in the development of new construction fields with complex drainage structures and high roof waterproofing requirements, such as photovoltaic construction, logistics and warehousing, aerospace, food and medicine. According to the “China TPO Waterproof Membrane Industry Market Monitoring and Future Development Prospects Research Report 2023-2027” released by the Industrial Research Center It shows that the output of synthetic polymer waterproofing membranes represented by TPO waterproofing membranes has reached 550 million square meters in 2022.

As a type of high-end construction waterproofing membrane, TPO waterproof membrane has high technical barriers and high industry entry barriers. At present, domestic TPO waterproofing membrane companies mainly include Dongfang Yuhong, Yinhe Waterproofing, Keshun Waterproofing, BNBM Group, Zhuobao Technology, Yuzhongqing Waterproofing, Hongyuan Waterproofing, etc. Among them, Oriental Yuhong is currently the leading enterprise in the domestic TPO waterproof membrane market.

Industry analysts said that TPO waterproof membrane is a type of synthetic polymer waterproof membrane. In recent years, , in the context of the rapid development of the domestic green building industry, it has gradually gained wide recognition in the market with its good performance, the demand has shown a continuous growth trend, and the industry development trend is good. In the future, under the background of the continuous advancement of domestic dual-carbon goals, TPO waterproof membranes with the advantages of environmental protection and energy saving are expected to become the mainstream products in the waterproof membrane market, and the industry has huge development potential.
