A liquid-applied membrane (LAM) is a fluid or semi-fluid material applied in a continuous layer for various roofing applications, including new roofs, replacement roofs, and roof re-cover systems. This application is carried out using methods such as spraying, rolling, or brushing. Liquid-applied membranes are commonly used as waterproofing materials for building surfaces.
The main types of liquid-applied membranes include polyurethane, cementitious, bituminous, and others. Polyurethane membranes, for example, are a type of waterproofing system consisting of a two-component system with a base material and a curing agent. These membranes find applications in roofing, walls, underground structures, tunnels, and other areas. They are utilized in various construction contexts, including residential construction, commercial construction, and public infrastructure.

The liquid applied membranes market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $18.89 billion in 2023 to $20.43 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.1%. The growth observed in the historical period can be attributed to factors such as infrastructure development, increased requirements for waterproofing, a rise in construction activities, heightened awareness of building envelope integrity, and the expansion of the commercial and industrial sectors.
The liquid applied membranes market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $26.82 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.0%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be attributed to factors such as urbanization and population growth, an increased focus on sustainable construction practices, advancements in materials science, retrofitting of aging structures, and infrastructure investments in emerging markets. Key trends expected in the forecast period include the adoption of sustainable and eco-friendly solutions, advancements in polyurethane technology, innovation in application techniques, integration with green roofs and living walls, and the digitalization of membrane solutions.
The ongoing surge in construction activities within residential and commercial sectors is steering the liquid-applied membrane market towards significant growth. Residential construction involves the creation of living spaces, while commercial construction pertains to structures designed for business purposes. Liquid-applied membranes, instrumental in waterproofing and fortifying construction systems, are gaining prominence. Notably, recent reports from the United States Census Bureau highlight an over 8% increase in the overall value of residential and non-residential constructions in the US between 2020 and 2021. Furthermore, the issuance of building permits for privately owned housing units in February witnessed a 13.8% rise from the adjusted January rate, totaling 1,524,000 on a seasonally adjusted yearly basis. This escalating construction activity in both residential and commercial domains serves as a driving force propelling the liquid-applied membrane market forward.
The growing emphasis on energy efficiency is anticipated to drive the expansion of the liquid-applied membrane market. Energy efficiency entails the effective utilization of energy resources to attain desired outcomes with minimal waste. Liquid-applied membranes play a crucial role in achieving energy efficiency by providing effective insulation, waterproofing, and durability. This contributes to the creation of energy-efficient buildings, resulting in long-term environmental and cost benefits. Notably, the European Union's target of achieving at least a 32.5% increase in energy efficiency by 2030, as reported by Eurostat in December 2022, underscores the market's trajectory towards greater energy efficiency.
A prominent trend in the liquid-applied membrane market is the introduction of innovative products, exemplified by Fosroc International Ltd's launch of Polyurea WH 100.
