Commercial Challenge

The Infrastructure Protection Challenge

Infrastructure assets — transport hubs, public facilities, utility structures, bridges, tunnels, buried service infrastructure and large-scale public buildings — require coating and waterproofing systems capable of sustaining structural integrity over long operational lifecycles under demanding environmental conditions.

The coating and waterproofing of infrastructure is a specification-led discipline. Asset owners, project managers and consulting engineers require systems that carry verifiable technical credentials, offer manufacturer-backed support from specification through to completion, and deliver long-term performance without frequent remediation cycles that generate operational disruption and lifecycle cost.

Operational Challenges

Common Project Considerations

  • Long-term waterproofing of buried infrastructure elements against hydrostatic pressure
  • Fire protective coating requirements across public infrastructure buildings
  • Protective coating systems for exposed infrastructure elements subject to UV and weathering
  • Specification-led selection with verifiable technical documentation
  • High-output application requirements for large-scale infrastructure surfaces
  • Operational continuity requirements during coating and waterproofing programmes
  • Manufacturer-backed technical support from specification through project completion
  • Durable performance under GCC environmental conditions across long asset lifecycles

Dubai, UAE & GCC Relevance

Why Infrastructure Protection Matters Across UAE & GCC Markets

Infrastructure investment across Dubai, the UAE and wider GCC region has been substantial and is ongoing — encompassing transport networks, airport expansions, utility infrastructure, public facilities and mixed-use urban developments. Many of these infrastructure assets require specialist waterproofing and protective coating systems during initial construction, and will require refurbishment and protection programmes as they age through their operational lifecycle.

Liquid Coatings by Forti Nova provides manufacturer-backed specialist coating and waterproofing systems for infrastructure applications — from below-ground waterproofing on buried concrete elements to fire protective coatings for public infrastructure buildings and commercial roof refurbishment on large-scale transport or logistics facilities. Technical guidance, specification support and project consultation are available for qualifying infrastructure opportunities across Dubai, the UAE and wider GCC markets.

Key Advantages

Why Specify These Systems

Below-Ground Waterproofing

BelowGrade spray-applied seamless waterproofing for buried infrastructure elements including foundations, tunnels, service ducts and buried concrete structures.

Fire Protective Coatings

FireGuard Pro200 A2-s1,d0 classified fire protective coating for public infrastructure buildings, terminals, stairwells and facades requiring fire performance documentation.

Roof Refurbishment

SprayGrade and TopSpray35 for commercial and industrial roof refurbishment across infrastructure facilities — large-scale transport hubs, logistics assets and public buildings.

Long-Term Durability

Systems engineered for long-term performance under GCC environmental conditions — UV intensity, thermal cycling, salt exposure and hydrostatic pressure relevant to infrastructure applications.

High-Output Application

Spray-applied systems enabling efficient coverage of large infrastructure surfaces — supporting programme continuity on large-scale public and commercial infrastructure projects.

Specification Support

Technical guidance, specification assistance and project consultation for infrastructure waterproofing and protective coating projects across Dubai, the UAE and wider GCC markets.

Technical Considerations

Project & Specification Considerations

  • Multi-System Infrastructure Projects

    Large infrastructure projects may require more than one specialist coating or waterproofing system — for example, BelowGrade for buried structure waterproofing alongside FireGuard Pro200 for public building fire protection. Liquid Coatings by Forti Nova can provide integrated technical guidance across multiple system requirements.

  • Specification and Documentation

    Infrastructure projects typically require comprehensive technical documentation including technical data sheets, safety data sheets and, where applicable, fire classification reports. Documentation for all systems is available on request from Liquid Coatings by Forti Nova.

  • Long-Term Performance Requirements

    Infrastructure assets have long operational lifecycles and require coating and waterproofing systems with demonstrated durability. BelowGrade carries a 25-year product warranty. FireGuard Pro200 carries an independently verified A2-s1,d0 classification. Technical guidance on system selection for specific infrastructure applications is available from our team.

Technical guidance on system selection for specific infrastructure applications is available from Liquid Coatings by Forti Nova.

Yes. FireGuard Pro200 is a fire protective coating system with A2-s1,d0 classification (independently tested by Warringtonfire Gent, Classification Report No. 18831B) suitable for public infrastructure buildings, terminals, stairwells and facades. Technical documentation is available on request.

Yes. Liquid Coatings by Forti Nova provides technical guidance, specification assistance, training support and project consultation for infrastructure waterproofing and protective coating projects across Dubai, the UAE and wider GCC markets. For qualifying large-scale infrastructure opportunities, direct project involvement may be available — contact our team to discuss.

Yes. Large infrastructure projects may require several specialist systems — for example, below-ground waterproofing on buried elements combined with fire protective coatings on public building components and roof refurbishment on facility roofing. Liquid Coatings by Forti Nova can provide technical guidance across multiple system requirements within a single project.

Yes. Technical Data Sheets, Safety Data Sheets and, for FireGuard Pro200, the Warringtonfire Gent Classification Report No. 18831B are all available on request from Liquid Coatings by Forti Nova for specification, project documentation and compliance review purposes.
