Waterproofing Solution for Honda Car Showroom’s Metal Roof in Udon Thani, Thailand
Honda Udon Thani operates in a building with a distinctive curved metal roof, a design commonly used in modern showrooms. However, despite multiple attempts to repair and seal the roof using metal flashing and various sealants, the building continued to suffer from persistent leaks for many years. These issues affected operations, customer experience, and daily maintenance.
The Challenge
Car showrooms often feature architectural designs that look impressive but come with technical challenges. Curved roof structures, multiple penetrations, and complex detailing make it difficult to achieve long-term waterproofing using traditional methods.
At Honda Udon Thani, repeated leaks were caused by:
Curved metal surfaces difficult to seal
Penetrations and joints that allowed water ingress
Previous repairs that failed due to limited flexibility and poor adhesion
Seasonal heavy rains placing stress on the substrate
Despite multiple repair attempts, the leakage problem continued for years, affecting the building and creating discomfort for customers and staff.
The Solution
To provide a permanent and reliable waterproofing solution, Triflex proposed the Triflex ProDetail system—engineered specifically for complex roof geometries, joints, and penetrations.
Triflex ProDetail was selected due to its:
Crack-bridging ability to withstand movement in curved metal roofs
Full-surface adhesion ensuring long-term stability
High durability and weather resistance suitable for Thailand’s climate
Exceptional adaptability to irregular shapes and difficult details
With a lifespan of over 25 years, the system ensures that Honda Udon Thani finally has a solution capable of eliminating leakage issues once and for all.
