Triflex ProDetail: Detail waterproofing with a proven 40-year service life
Seam details are the most common cause of leaks in buildings. Damage often occurs at junctions—such as between doors, facades, and floors—when materials expand and contract at different rates or joints fail.
Triflex ProDetail is a PMMA-based liquid polymer system developed specifically for these critical areas.
The key difference:
The waterproofing is applied in liquid form and adapts completely to any geometry—without joints, without weak spots.
Result:
A permanently watertight, flexible, and tested detail waterproofing solution
Proven Safety Instead of Assumptions
Many waterproofing systems are based on material testing.
Triflex goes one step further:
Not only the material, but the entire building connection has been tested.
- Tested for watertightness up to 600 Pa
- Tested according to European standards (ETA, EAD)
- Over 25 years of practical experience
In addition, KIWA tests confirm an expected service life of up to 40 years.
For designers, this means:
clear evidence rather than room for interpretation.
For installers:
reliable systems that work—even in critical details.
1Extremely weather-resistant – remains permanently watertight even when exposed to UV radiation
Triflex ProDetail remains fully functional even under intense UV radiation. Tested at 2,000 MJ/m²—twice the level of standard tests. The waterproofing remains flexible and watertight, even under prolonged exposure to sunlight. This prevents damage caused by embrittlement or cracking.
Cost-effectiveness over the entire life cycle
It’s not the price per square meter that matters—it’s the total cost over decades.
Thanks to the high durability of Triflex ProDetail, renovation intervals are extended and maintenance costs are reduced. This results in:
- lower follow-up costs
- minimized risk of moisture damage
- greater planning reliability
For applicators, this also creates a competitive advantage: Long-term, reliable solutions strengthen their reputation and lead to organic repeat business.

Proven Track Record: The Bad Oeynhausen Reference Project—25 Years
In 1999, the roof of a car dealership in Bad Oeynhausen was waterproofed with Triflex ProDetail—including a complex curved roof geometry with an internal water drainage system.
After 25 years, samples were taken: No significant defects were found.
Combined with the extended ETA testing, this confirms an expected service life of 40 years—solid, real-world proof for planners and investors.
FAQs About Triflex ProDetail
Triflex ProDetail is a PMMA-based, fabric-reinforced liquid polymer waterproofing system designed for permanently reliable waterproofing of details in new construction and renovation projects.
The system is particularly suitable for:
- Balcony waterproofing
- Roof flashings and parapets
- Parking deck and parking garage waterproofing
- Door and window flashings
- Special structures and complex geometries
Thanks to its seamless application and high crack-bridging capability, Triflex ProDetail is particularly well-suited for demanding detail connections where movement or material changes occur.
Triflex ProDetail has comprehensive independent test reports that confirm its technical performance and durability.
These include, among others:
- European Technical Assessment (ETA) according to EAD 030350-00-0402
- Extended ETA assessment with a confirmed expected service life of 40 years
- General Building Inspection Test Certificate
- FL test (root and rhizome resistance)
- IFT test for barrier-free door and window connections
- Aquatic ecotoxicity tests
These certifications provide planning and liability certainty for architects, building owners, and installers.
Sustainability in building waterproofing is achieved primarily through durability.
The confirmed expected service life of 40 years reduces renovation cycles, material consumption, and CO₂ emissions over the life cycle of a building.
The long-term functionality of the waterproofing results in:
- maintenance measures are minimized
- Resources are conserved
- The value of the structure is preserved over the long term
In this way, Triflex ProDetail makes a measurable contribution to sustainable construction.
Triflex ProDetail adheres to over 2,000 tested substrates—including concrete, screed, metal, bitumen membranes, and many other common construction materials.
System-compatible primers optimize adhesion and increase reliability in both installation and planning.
This wide range of compatible substrates makes the system particularly cost-effective for renovation projects, as existing structures can often be retained.
Triflex ProDetail may only be applied by trained and certified applicators.
Proper application includes:
- Substrate inspection and preparation
- Application of a system-compatible primer
- Non-woven-reinforced, seamless application
- Compliance with layer thicknesses
- Documented quality assurance
Digital step-by-step instructions and training programs support safe implementation on the job site.
When evaluating waterproofing systems, it is not only the initial costs but also the life-cycle costs that are decisive.
The confirmed service life of 40 years results in:
- longer renovation intervals
- reduced maintenance costs
- lower risk of damage
- greater investment security
This makes Triflex ProDetail economically attractive, particularly for roof renovations, balcony waterproofing, and parking garage renovations.
Triflex ProDetail enables technically sound detail waterproofing without any design restrictions.
Thanks to its seamless integration into waterproofing and coating systems, it allows for:
- create colored surfaces
- create surfaces that can be refinished
- create visually sophisticated balcony and parking garage surfaces
Full-surface adhesion without mechanical fastening reduces detailing conflicts and enables flexible architectural solutions.
Yes. Triflex ProDetail has been used in a wide variety of projects for over 25 years—from roof renovations to parking garages to special structures.
Long-term references, such as the project in Bad Oeynhausen, demonstrate its durability over decades.
Reference projects provide planners and investors with additional confidence in their decision-making.
