Deckshield Range Technical Profile

Multi storey car parks have always been

many customers’ first point of contact with
commercial destinations, but it is only recently
that developers have made efforts to improve the
quality of the car park experience.

Although often underestimated, the correct specification of

waterproofing and surfacing materials is critical, within the car
park environment, to delivering a long-term, structurally protected
and safe facility for car park operators and vehicle owners.

Flowcrete Asia’s Deckshield range offers a number of colourful

deck coating solutions geared up to provide slip-resistance,
durability and an excellent service life as well as stand-up to
common car park problems. What’s more, Flowcrete’s deck
coating systems are Singapore Green Label certified.
