Archimede is a company operating in the construction sector, specializing in the development and commercialization of
waterproofing solutions. Originally established as a consulting firm, it has progressively expanded its scope to include technical products for construction sites, with a specific focus on liquid membranes. The company’s identity is grounded in an approach oriented toward applied research, with the aim of simplifying construction processes through versatile, safe, and easy-to-use materials.
Archimede: history and development of a company in the waterproofing sector
Founded in 1999 as a consulting firm, Archimede embarked on a significant evolutionary path starting in 2008, when it expanded its activities to include the sale of construction products. At the same time, the company initiated a structured research and development program aimed at creating a waterproofing solution capable of meeting the operational needs of contemporary construction sites. The objective was to design a single product able to adapt to multiple application contexts, reducing operational complexity and improving working conditions for operators. After three years of research, NautilusFlex was developed—a water-based liquid membrane that represented the first concrete outcome of this process, distinguished by high technical performance and ease of application.
Archimede liquid membranes: SeaFlex and advanced solutions for construction
Research activities continued in the following years with the goal of further refining product characteristics, enhancing elasticity, versatility, and installation speed. This process led, in October 2017, to the launch of
SeaFlex, a water-based liquid membrane designed to meet most waterproofing requirements in both civil and industrial contexts. The result of over ten years of development, SeaFlex stands as a highly high-performance solution, supported by more than 40 certifications issued by independent laboratories, attesting to its compliance with technical and regulatory standards in the sector.
Archimede’s decision to focus on a single highly versatile product fits within a market increasingly oriented toward specialized solutions that are also operationally efficient. SeaFlex has been designed to combine performance quality, ease of use, and safety, also thanks to its water-based formulation, which helps reduce the impact on operators’ health and on the working environment.
Today, the company continues to invest in the development of technologically advanced products, maintaining a design-driven approach that integrates research, experimentation, and practical application on site. This orientation enables Archimede to offer solutions aligned with the contemporary needs of the construction industry, where reliability, execution speed, and regulatory compliance are central elements.
