FRP Lamination for Aquaponic System at Bandar Utama

Year: 2022
Project Type: FRP Lamination for Aquaponics Waterproofing
Building: 28-storey high-rise, Bandar Utama
Location: Bandar Utama, Selangor
Client: Bandar Utama City Assets Sdn. Bhd.
Area Covered: Approx. 16,818–17,000 sqm across 14 levels
Timeline: 3 months completion
Workforce: 12 skilled workers
Result: Achieved long-term waterproofing after multiple failed methods

The client aimed to incorporate a high-volume aquaponic system within a high-rise structure, but faced continuous leakage and failure with traditional waterproofing and even earlier FRP attempts by others. Mui Fatt provided a custom FRP lamination solution using high-quality resin and fibreglass, ensuring long-term resistance against water ingress, hydroponic nutrient exposure, and wear from aquaponic operations. The result was a complete turnaround — seamless waterproofing performance across all 14 designated levels.

FRP Lamination Benefits and Suitable Applications

Why FRP for High-Rise Aquaponics?

Seamless Waterproofing: Eliminates water leakage in nutrient-rich systems
Corrosion Resistant: Withstands long-term exposure to moisture and hydroponic solutions
Lightweight Yet Durable: Ideal for high-rise load-bearing considerations
Fast Curing Time: Allows project completion within tight deadlines

Other Suitable Applications:

Rooftop and Basement Waterproofing
Chemical Plant Floors and Containment Pits
Water Retaining Structures
Cooling Tower Linings
Food and Beverage Processing Floors

Aquaponic grow beds integrated with FRP-lined tanks and hydroponic trays, forming a productive system on a high-rise building’s rooftop in Bandar Utama.

The 3-month timeline was achieved through a well-planned execution strategy and a committed team of 12 skilled laminators. Each floor was prepped, layered, and cured under stringent quality control to ensure consistency and long-term durability. Post-project inspections confirmed zero water seepage and full system compatibility with aquaponic equipment.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What makes FRP more reliable than conventional waterproofing?

FRP is seamless, non-porous, corrosion-resistant, and can be tailored for chemical and nutrient exposure — perfect for aquaponic and wet area applications.

What challenges were solved by your FRP solution?

Previous waterproofing systems failed repeatedly, causing leakage. Our FRP lamination resolved this permanently with a seamless, watertight application.

Can FRP be applied in other high-rise or aquaponic facilities?

Absolutely. FRP is highly adaptable and can be applied to commercial rooftops, indoor tanks, or floors requiring chemical resistance and watertight performance.

Is FRP lamination only suitable for large buildings?

No. FRP can be customized for any project scale — from small containment pits to expansive rooftops or floors.

Is the system safe for aquaponics and food-grade usage?

Yes. We use resins compatible with aquaponic requirements, avoiding toxic leaching and ensuring ecosystem compatibility.
