What Drytech Construction Inc. does

Drytech International SA (operating as Drytech) is a Swiss privately held specialist in structural waterproofing, founded in 1963 and headquartered in Switzerland. The company focuses exclusively on waterproofing of groundwater constructions, underground works, and liquid containment structures, serving architects, structural engineers, building and construction companies, and property owners/developers primarily across Europe.

The firm's core offerings are three proprietary product lines: the Drytech Tank structural waterproofing system for underground construction, Injection Systems for seepage remediation performed from inside structures without demolition, and the Drycoat elastic waterproof mantle for terraces and surfaces. These systems are built on proprietary materials chemistry, including the DRYflex acrylic waterproofing resin used to seal construction details in the Drytech Tank system. Supporting the product lines, Drytech Engineering provides design consulting and tender specification services to architects, engineers, and construction firms, embedding Drytech specifications into projects at the design phase.

Drytech operates a sales-led go-to-market model, distributing through direct engagement with design professionals and construction firms via a multi-language corporate website (EN, FR, DE, IT) and through the Drytech International applicator network, which extends the system globally via certified applicators. Revenue is generated through project-based pricing on construction waterproofing services, sale of proprietary systems (Drytech Tank, Drycoat), injection and restoration services, and engineering consulting. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and is quoted on a per-project basis; the company reports over 1,000 ongoing construction projects across Europe annually.

Direct peers

• Penetron International: Penetron produces crystalline waterproofing and concrete protection systems used in basements, tunnels, and water tanks — directly overlapping with Drytech Tank and Drytech Engineering offerings for below-grade and liquid-containment structures.
• Kryton International: Kryton manufactures crystalline waterproofing admixtures and the Hard-Cem concrete hardener, comparable to Drytech's structural waterproofing systems. Both are specialty waterproofing brands targeting concrete construction professionals.
• Xypex Chemical Corporation: Xypex specializes in crystalline waterproofing admixtures and coatings for concrete structures, directly competing with Drytech Tank in the underground waterproofing niche. Both serve architects, engineers, and contractors on water-containment and below-grade projects globally.

Broad incumbents

• Fosroc International: Fosroc supplies waterproofing membranes, injection resins, and concrete repair systems to the construction industry. It is comparable to Drytech as a multi-product waterproofing and restoration supplier with international distribution.
• Sika AG: Sika is a global construction chemicals leader offering waterproofing membranes, resins, and injection systems alongside a much broader portfolio. It competes with Drytech across multiple product lines but as a diversified incumbent rather than a waterproofing specialist.
• Mapei S.p.A. Mapei provides construction chemicals including waterproofing systems, structural mortars, and surface treatments. It overlaps with Drytech on below-grade waterproofing but serves a far broader range of construction applications.
• Carlisle Construction Materials: Carlisle is a major producer of waterproofing membranes, coatings, and below-grade systems for commercial construction. Its broad product set competes with Drytech Tank and Drycoat on larger commercial and infrastructure waterproofing projects.
• GCP Applied Technologies (Saint-Gobain): GCP Applied Technologies, now part of Saint-Gobain, produces waterproofing membranes and concrete admixtures for below-grade and infrastructure projects. Its Preprufe and Bituthane lines compete with Drytech's structural waterproofing systems.
• BASF Master Builders Solutions: BASF's Master Builders Solutions division offers concrete admixtures, waterproofing systems, and repair products for underground and infrastructure projects. It is a broad incumbent competing with Drytech Tank and Injection Systems as part of a large portfolio.

Emerging players

• Tremco Construction Products Group: Tremco CPG offers waterproofing, coatings, and building envelope solutions with strong European presence through brands like illbruck and Nullifire. It overlaps with Drytech's Drycoat and restoration lines while operating across a broader construction-chemistry portfolio.
