Carlisle Coatings & Waterproofing

What Carlisle Coatings & Waterproofing does

Carlisle Coatings & Waterproofing (CCW) is a US-based building envelope manufacturer that designs, formulates, and sells air and vapor barriers, fluid-applied and sheet waterproofing membranes, drainage composites, polyiso and EPS wall insulation, and green roof systems for commercial construction projects. Its portfolio centers on proprietary technologies including SeamLOCK seaming on the MiraPLY blindside waterproofing line (claimed at twice the puncture resistance of rigid HDPE systems), the Fire Resist family of NFPA 285-compliant air and vapor barriers (technology adapted from aerospace), and MiraSEAL, a 100% solids fluid-applied waterproofing membrane with no kettles required and a 20-year warranty. The company is operationally headquartered in Wylie, Texas, with an additional facility in Terrell, Texas, and corporate affiliation to Carlisle, Pennsylvania, where parent Carlisle Companies (NYSE: CSL) is based.

The business is positioned as a single-source building envelope supplier: insulation, air and vapor barriers, waterproofing, and drainage products are engineered to integrate into total wall and roof systems covered by a single warranty of up to 20 years, backed by the financial resources of Carlisle Construction Materials. The product line holds third-party certifications including NFPA 285, AAMA testing on bonding agents, LEED-contributing EPS insulation, and multiple Environmental Product Declarations (ISO 14044) across fluid-applied, butyl, and sheet-and-hot-applied product families. Reference projects span corporate headquarters (Nvidia, Toyota), healthcare (Maine General Health, Mass. Eye & Ear), education (Woodbury Middle School, Auburn University, University of Chicago), government (Toronto City Hall, Portland Jetport, Dallas Love Field), and entertainment venues (Videotron Centre, Quebec City).

Revenue is generated through one-time product sales into commercial construction projects, distributed via manufacturer representatives and building-materials distributors across the United States and Canada, with specification support aimed at architects, specifiers, contractors, and building owners. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and is handled through distributor quotes and direct sales. Go-to-market relies heavily on specification-driven demand generation — AIA continuing education courses via AEC Daily, lunch-and-learn programs, technical services, the eBinders digital library, the NVELOPedia blog, and digital tools such as the NFPA Build A Wall app — with brand consolidation under 'Henry, a Carlisle Company'. CCW is a division of Carlisle Construction Materials, a wholly owned subsidiary of Carlisle Companies Incorporated (NYSE: CSL), so standalone revenue, headcount trends, and financials are not separately reported.

• GCP Applied Technologies (Saint-Gobain): Direct peer in commercial waterproofing and air/vapor barrier systems. GCP's PERM-A-BARRIER and BITUTHANE product lines compete directly with CCW's MiraPLY, MiraSEAL, and CCW-705 membranes in commercial construction specifications.
• Mapei Corporation: Direct peer in commercial waterproofing, air barriers, and building envelope solutions. Mapei competes with CCW in fluid-applied and sheet membranes and shares a similar specification-driven GTM targeting architects and contractors.
• W. R. Meadows: Direct peer in commercial waterproofing, vapor barriers, and air barriers. W. R. Meadows' MEL-ROL, PRECON, and Air-Shield product lines compete head-to-head with CCW in below-grade and above-grade commercial applications.
• Polyguard Products: Direct peer specializing in below-grade waterproofing membranes and air/vapor barriers. Polyguard competes with CCW's MiraPLY blindside systems and MiraDRI self-adhered membranes in commercial and infrastructure applications.

Broad incumbents

• Sika AG: Broad incumbent in construction chemicals with comparable waterproofing, sealing, bonding, and roofing systems. Sika serves the same commercial construction market and offers a more diversified global portfolio including concrete admixtures and flooring.
• DuPont (Tyvek / Styrofoam): Broad incumbent in building envelope with Tyvek weather barriers and Styrofoam insulation that overlap with CCW's air barrier and insulation product lines. DuPont competes for architect specifications at scale and leverages strong consumer brand recognition.
• Johns Manville (Berkshire Hathaway): Broad incumbent in insulation, roofing, and commercial waterproofing. Johns Manville's building envelope portfolio overlaps with CCW's polyiso and waterproofing offerings and is similarly backed by a large diversified parent.
• Carlisle Construction Materials: Parent division of CCW, offering a complete range of commercial roofing and waterproofing products. CCM provides the warranty backing for CCW and shares overlapping EPDM, TPO, and roofing-adjacent product categories, making it a structural comparator in commercial envelope specification.
