The Mindspace Project:
K Raheja Corp developed Mindspace – a brand of commercial and industrial parks in Mumbai, Navi Mumbai, Hyderabad, Chennai, and Pune. The industrial hubs offer offices, residential towers, entertainment facilities, and other retail businesses.
More than 50 businesses in India, including Accenture, L&T Infotech Ltd, Cognizant Technology, and Capegemini Group, are housed in the parks developed by Mindspace.
Mindspace’s buildings are designed and built to have a reduced effect on the environment. Some of its projects, like Madhapur, received recognition with a gold rating certificate from USGBC.
The Application:
Navi Mumbai’s Mindspace required the coating for its multi-storey car park to be solid and long-lasting.
Sunanda Global, recognized as the best waterproofing company, specified their high-performance epoxy and polyurethane coatings for the ramps, exposed areas, and indoor car park areas.In addition to these, anti rust coating was applied to metal surfaces, ensuring protection against corrosion
Sunanda Global faced tough competition from rivals.
But the client approved Sunanda Global solutions as Sunanda Global provided a complete solution for epoxy and PU-based coatings, as required for the project.
Conclusion:
Sunanda Global’s expert technical site support enabled the completion of the project on time, with the client and consultant satisfied with the results. As a leading choice among waterproofing contractors in Mumbai, Sunanda Global demonstrated its commitment to delivering high-quality solutions that meet client expectations.

FAQs
1. What’s the main difference between PU and epoxy coatings?
Polyurethane (PU) coatings are flexible and ideal for surfaces exposed to movement or weather, while epoxy coatings are tougher and more chemical-resistant, perfect for heavy-duty areas.
2. Why were PU and epoxy coatings used at Mindspace Airoli East?
The project involved car park ramps and exposed concrete areas that needed high durability and weather resistance. PU and epoxy systems provided the ideal balance of flexibility, strength, and long-term protection.
3. Can PU and epoxy coatings be applied over existing concrete?
Yes, as long as the surface is properly cleaned, repaired, and primed. Good surface preparation ensures excellent adhesion and lasting performance.
4. What are the main benefits of using PU and epoxy coatings?
These coatings create a seamless waterproof barrier, resist cracking, UV rays, and chemicals, and handle heavy vehicle movement — making them ideal for car parks, ramps, and exposed areas.
5. What precautions are needed during application?
It’s important to prepare the surface thoroughly, maintain proper temperature and humidity, apply the right primer, and allow adequate curing time before use.
6. How long do PU and epoxy coatings last?
With professional application and regular maintenance, these coatings can last for several years, even in high-traffic or exposed environments.
7. Do I need professionals to apply PU or epoxy coatings?
Yes. Expert applicators ensure the right formulation, thickness, and curing, which is crucial for long-term waterproofing and durability.
