How Jinxing Waterproofing Strengthens Urban Renewal Foundations in the Next Five Years

Recently, the State Council Information Office held a regular policy briefing, during which the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development and three other departments provided a systematic interpretation of the Urban Renovation '14th Five-Year' Plan. As the first national-level specialized plan in the field of urban renewal, it outlines plans to initiate renovation of approximately 1.15 million urban residential communities over the next five years, construct and upgrade underground pipelines totaling around 770,000 kilometers, and allocate RMB 97 billion in central budgetary investment and RMB 160 billion in long-term special bonds for dedicated support.Jinxing Waterproofing Grouphas identified clear market demand from the plan, as well as a clear path for integrating its products and technologies into key projects.

Renovation of old urban residential communities is one of the most widely covered public welfare initiatives in this plan. The policy explicitly calls for upgrading supporting infrastructure, supporting elevator installations, and advancing public space repairs. For many older buildings, issues such as roof leakage, exterior wall cracking, and plumbing cross-leakage directly affect living quality. Additionally, waterproofing at elevator pit bases and connection joints after installation cannot be overlooked.Single-component polyurea waterproof coating,polyurethane grouting material, acrylate grouting material, transparent waterproof adhesive, non-demolition brick leak sealing material, back-coating negative pressurewaterproof slurry, polymer cement waterproof decorative coating, among others, form a specialized product system tailored for building repair scenarios. These solutions offer high construction efficiency and minimal disruption to residents, aligning perfectly with the plan’s promotion of 'micro-renovation' models and simplified approval procedures—effectively shortening response times to problems.

Underground pipeline construction and renovation are another major focus area. During the '14th Five-Year' period, about 200,000 km of gas pipelines, 175,000 km of drainage pipelines, 175,000 km of water supply pipelines, 100,000 km of sewage pipelines, and 120,000 km of heating pipelines will be constructed or upgraded. In 2026 alone, RMB 160 billion has been allocated. While large-scale pipeline upgrades primarily target the pipes themselves, waterproof sealing at critical points such as trenches, inspection chambers, and integrated utility tunnel junctions remains fundamental to ensuring long-term safe operation. Leakage at these nodes may trigger secondary risks like road collapse and water contamination.High molecular non-asphalt-based self-adhesive membrane waterproofing sheet, high molecular double-layer self-adhesive waterproofing sheet, TPR rubberhigh molecular self-adhesive waterproofing sheet, non-asphalt high molecular membrane-based self-adhesive waterproofing sheet, have been widely used in underground projects including subways and integrated utility tunnels, meeting rigorous requirements for complex joints and long-term hydrostatic conditions. These products directly meet the growing demand in pipeline renovation projects.

In terms of housing quality improvement and complete community development, the plan advocates constructing and upgrading 'good homes' that are safe, comfortable, green, and smart, encourages age-friendly renovations and prefabricated interior finishes, and aims to upgrade facilities in 5,000 communities. The waterproof performance in wet areas—such as bathrooms, balconies, and elderly care and childcare facilities—is crucial to achieving durable and comfortable living standards.Thick-coating polymer cement waterproof coating, LeakStopper, polyurethane grouting materialThese products are safe, environmentally friendly, and easy to install, naturally compatible with indoor renovation and prefabricated construction methods. They help transform waterproofing from a 'hidden element' into a 'quality feature'.

RMB 97 billion in central budgetary investment and RMB 160 billion in long-term special bonds are precisely directed toward addressing key public welfare gaps. From old residential communities to underground pipelines, from 'good homes' to complete communities, Jinxing Waterproofing will continue to monitor and support the implementation of the '14th Five-Year Urban Renovation Plan', embedding customized solutions into specific projects and strengthening the foundational integrity of urban renewal through systematic waterproofing services.
