What Aquaproof does
Aquaproof is the pioneer water-based waterproofing paint brand in Indonesia, operated by privately-held PT Adhi Cakra Utama Mulia and headquartered in Jakarta Pusat. Founded circa 1986, the company has built a 40-year track record as the first Indonesian manufacturer of cat pelapis anti bocor (anti-leak coatings), based on synthetic polymer water-based elastomeric chemistry that delivers over 500% elasticity and 8+ years of wall/roof protection. Its core product portfolio includes the flagship Aquaproof and premium Aquaproof Pro acrylic polyurethane coatings, cementitious Aquagard variants (including the 2024-launched koi-pond-specialized Aquagard Koimaster), HeatGard heat-reflective coatings, and a broad ancillary range covering tiling adhesives/grouts (Superfix, Supergrout), additives (Super Cement, Betonmix), waterproof plaster (Hydrostop), sealants (Conseal, Sealband), reinforcement mesh, and pest control (Dynomite).
The company serves three primary customer segments: Indonesian residential homeowners facing leakage and seepage in walls, roofs, and bathrooms; professional contractors and builders (tukang bangunan, mandor) who apply the products on construction and renovation projects; and commercial/institutional customers (warehouses, retail outlets, auditoriums, mosques). Its go-to-market is hybrid: a long-established domestic distribution network reaching Indonesia-wide hardware stores and independent distributors, augmented by direct official storefronts on six e-commerce marketplaces (Blibli, Tokopedia, Shopee, Lazada, Bukalapak, TikTok Shop), plus content marketing, social media engagement on Instagram and TikTok, and CSR programs.
Aquaproof monetizes purely through hardware sales of its product line with pricing not publicly disclosed. Manufacturing runs through ISO 9001 (quality) and ISO 14001 (environmental) certified facilities, and the company holds the first Indonesian SNI 8665:2018 certification for water-based anti-leak coatings alongside a Green Label for Aquaproof Pro. There is no public funding history, no external investors disclosed, no M&A activity, and no software/AI capabilities within the product stack; Aquaproof operates as a traditional, founder-controlled building chemicals CPG brand.
