The surfaces at NTPC Barh were heavily weathered and damaged, creating several challenges:
• Fungal and bacterial growth due to prolonged moisture exposure.
• Cracking and dust formation weakening the concrete substrate.
• Large-scale surface repairs required before coating application.
• High elevation work areas, causing logistical and safety difficulties during material shifting and application.
• Additionally, due to the scale of the project, maintaining cost efficiency and product performance was critical for long-term maintenance planning.
Makphalt proposed Mak Elastothane EMB, a high-elongation, eco-friendly,
polyurethane-based elastomeric membrane designed for heavy-duty
waterproofing and weather protection.
Damaged concrete areas were repaired to ensure sound
substrate for coating adhesion.
A total of 35 tonnes of Mak Elastothane EMB was applied by BEM
Enterprises, ensuring uniform film thickness and seamless waterproofing.
For high-elevation work zones, workers were secured with
ropes and harnesses, and material movement was carefully planned to ensure
safety and efficiency.
• Enhanced Durability: The coating provided a long-lasting barrier against moisture, dust, and fungal attack.
• Cost Efficiency: Reduced consumption and fast application ensured significant cost savings compared to competitors.
• Improved Aesthetics & Protection: The treated surfaces were revitalized, offering both aesthetic improvement and functional waterproofing.
• Client Satisfaction: NTPC appreciated Makphalt’s technical support, on-site safety management, and the superior performance of Mak Elastothane EMB under challenging site conditions.
MAK SUPER SHIELD TPO is a high-performance, heat-weldable thermoplastic polyolefin (TPO) waterproofing membrane available in 1.2 mm and 1.5 mm thicknesses. It is designed for roof waterproofing and heat-reflective protection in both new and existing structures.
The membrane features a white textured heat-reflective top layer and grey bottom layer, providing long-term protection against water ingress and extreme weather conditions while maintaining flexibility and structural integrity.
MAK ELASTOTHANE ALP 111 is a single-component waterproofing coating based on aliphatic polyurethane technology. After curing, it forms a seamless, highly flexible and durable waterproof membrane with excellent crack-bridging performance.
Transparent Acrylic Dispersion Coating for Stone, Masonry & Concrete Surfaces
MAK CLEARCOAT AC is a high-performance, water-based transparent protective coating based on advanced acrylic dispersion technology. It is designed for natural stone, concrete, masonry, mortar joints and mineral façade surfaces, providing long-lasting protection while maintaining the substrate’s original appearance.
Its self-crosslinking polymer technology provides strong adhesion, high alkaline resistance and excellent protection against staining, efflorescence, dirt accumulation and water absorption.
