The University of New South Wales

The Project

Project Details

The University of New South Wales underwent significant redevelopment across multiple buildings, including the Science & Engineering Building, the Biological Science Building and the iconic UNSW Round House. This comprehensive campus upgrade required robust waterproofing solutions across more than 9,000m² to protect critical teaching, research and student facilities. The project demanded systems capable of meeting the durability and performance standards required for a high-traffic educational environment.

To meet the highest performance and sustainability standards, the project focused on:

• Delivering reliable waterproofing protection across diverse building types within an active campus environment
• Ensuring minimal disruption to university operations while maintaining construction quality and scheduling requirements
• Providing long-term performance and durability suitable for heavily utilised educational and research facilities

Envirosystems Solution

Envirosystems was used across multiple buildings throughout the UNSW redevelopment, covering over 9,000m² of waterproofing applications. A comprehensive range of products deployed including EnviroPrime P2, Enviro 900, Enviro 200P Ultra, Enviro BSM, Enviro Epoxy RC and Enviroseal WC.

This diverse product selection enabled tailored solutions for varied applications throughout the campus. EnviroPrime P2 provided essential substrate priming, while Enviro 900 and Enviro 200P Ultra delivered robust membrane waterproofing protection. Enviro BSM addressed below-grade blind-side waterproofing requirements, with Enviro Epoxy RC and Enviroseal WC providing specialised coating and sealing solutions. The integrated Envirosystems approach ensured reliable, long-term waterproofing performance suited to the demanding requirements of educational infrastructure, where building longevity and minimal maintenance are essential for ongoing campus operations.
