Waterproofing Historical Buildings with Rubber

For many historical or heritage-listed buildings, or those with special architectural characteristics, standard waterproof joint systems may not be suitable due to classification. This could be influenced by factors such as aesthetic concerns or design limitations. In these situations, Boss Polymer will work closely with designers, engineers, and quality experts to realise your rubber-based waterproof joint system design concept. We analyse the structure and propose recommendations for the most appropriate rubber waterproof joint system solution for the specific building, considering its historical period.

Enhancing Building Integrity and Sustainability with Rubber

Boss Polymer specialises in collaborating with large organisations and their engineers to maintain the structural integrity and external façade of buildings using rubber waterproof joint systems. This ensures the building remains visually appealing while also contributing to its environmental friendliness and sustainability. Our rubber waterproof joint systems assist in controlling the internal thermal temperature, are stable against ozone and UV exposure, and in some cases, can be flame retardant rubber.

Case Study: Collins Place Gutter System (Rubber)

In 2017, Boss Polymer successfully undertook the production of a rubber gutter system to replace the existing one for AMP at Collins Place in Melbourne. This project involved a rubber extrusion exceeding 300mm in width, forming part of a complex rubber gutter system that included a series of rubber mouldings. Boss Polymer successfully delivered the rubber components for this project on time and in full.

Case Study: Perth Arena Waterproofing (Rubber)

Boss Polymer also recently designed the rubber waterproofing and sealing system for the Perth Arena, which presented significant challenges. The designers incorporated elements of the Eternity Puzzle, leading to extremely complex rubber seal requirements that Boss Polymer successfully addressed through both rubber mouldings and rubber extrusions.
