Founded in 2021, the company serves property owners, building managers, and homeowners across Northwestern Switzerland (Nordwestschweiz) with a portfolio of nine service lines: building waterproofing (including Weiße Wanne / Weiße Wanne+ systems and conventional membrane methods), 2-component high-pressure injection technology (10-250 bar) for sealing water-bearing cracks and voids, liquid plastics (Flüssigkunststoff) for seamless surface waterproofing, precision sealant joints (Kittfugen), comprehensive renovations, natural-oil electrostatic odor elimination, leak detection via infrared thermography and geophysical methods, expert consultation, and occupational safety services via the Sicuro industry solution.

The business operates as a project-based professional services firm, generating revenue through custom-quoted contracts for waterproofing, sealing, renovation, and remediation work. Pricing is not publicly disclosed; customers initiate engagement via phone, email, or the website inquiry form, followed by tailored consultation and execution. Go-to-market is sales-led and regionally constrained, supported by a content-driven website and organic social presence on Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn. The company employs fewer than 10 people according to its own Arbeitssicherheit disclosure, with a named team of approximately 14-15 individuals including certified building protection specialists, injection technicians, waterproofing applicators, a construction supervisor, and management. Ownership is founder/management-controlled, with Managing Director Marco Lanz (a federally certified building protection specialist) leading the firm. No external investors, parent company, or funding rounds are disclosed.

Directly comparable through its specialist positioning in below-grade waterproofing, injection systems, and remedial sealing — overlapping with mareas AG's core offerings.
• Safeguard Europe Ltd: UK-based specialist in damp-proofing, waterproofing, and structural repair systems with contractor training programs. Comparable through its parallel positioning between waterproofing products and certified installation craft, mirroring mareas AG's service-plus-product model.
