Arkaz proudly delivered a high-performance polyurea waterproofing solution, made possible through our valued collaboration with VIP Coating, to this landmark marine facility. This solution was applied to:

• The Submarine Channel: A concrete passage guiding submarines from dock to sea.
• The Grand Reveal Wall: A massive aquarium-facing wall exposed to open sea conditions.

 

Chosen for its exceptional durability, seamless application, and resistance to permanent seawater exposure, our polyurea system required no backfill, additional protection, or lateral pressure. This made it an ideal solution for marine-grade performance.

 Project Partners:

• Specialized Applicator: Rawabi Specialized Contracting.
• Material Supplied by: Arkaz (in partnership with VIP Coating).

 

This project stands as a testament to Arkaz’s commitment to delivering innovative waterproofing solutions for complex and high-performance environments.

Riyadh 2017
Residential & Commercial

The iconic KAPSARC building, designed, and engineered by Zaha Hadid Architects and Arup, features various departmental edifices forming a contiguous closed architecture by spanning the streets and courtyards between the buildings with translucent, double-skin membrane cells, to provide shade and ventilation without obscuring light or allowing direct penetration of sunshine. The structural skin is an intelligently arranged composite of steel and fabric, random and organic in appearance and with a testing sculptural form. The challenge was to identify a glass-PTFE fabric that would provide the translucency and strength required by the architect’s demanding specification, to which Arkaz delivered beyond expectations.
