Română35+ Years of Engineering Excellence in Construction Chemicals
From a pioneering vision in the early 1990s to a fully certified, research-driven manufacturer - Gemite Technology's mission is to deliver construction chemical systems that perform reliably for the lifetime of every structure.
Built on a Foundation of Technical Ambition
Gemite Technology was established with a clear conviction: that the construction industry deserved specialty chemical solutions engineered to the highest possible standards - products backed by rigorous science, manufactured with consistency, and supported by genuine technical expertise in the field.
Operating as the European manufacturing and distribution arm of Gemite Products Inc. - a Canadian company with deep roots in waterproofing chemistry - Gemite Technology brings the combined knowledge of two continents to every project. The parent company's decades of research and product development in North America flow directly into the formulations produced at our facility in Horlești, Romania.
From our base in north-eastern Romania, we serve contractors, specifiers, design engineers, and project owners across Eastern Europe, the Baltic States, and the wider European construction market. Our geographic position, combined with responsive technical support and fast logistics, makes Gemite a practical choice for demanding projects at any scale.
Over more than three decades, the range of challenges we have helped solve has grown substantially - from straightforward roof waterproofing on residential buildings to complex below-grade waterproofing of underground car parks, from the rehabilitation of century-old municipal water mains using Spin-Cast pipe relining technology, to the protection of aggressive chemical environments with geopolymer coating systems.
Each generation of products has been refined through feedback from the field, insights from our R&D laboratory, and a sustained dialogue with the engineers and applicators who use them every day. This cycle of learning and improvement is what gives Gemite products their reputation for durability and technical reliability.
Today Gemite Technology employs a team of chemists, production technicians, and field application specialists. Together they represent a knowledge base that is rare in the regional market - one that clients can draw on from the earliest stages of project specification right through to final quality inspection.

Accredited to International Standards - At Every Level
Gemite Technology's certifications are not formalities. They represent systematic controls embedded across production, environmental management, and workplace safety - giving customers verifiable assurance on every order.
Quality Management
Every batch is produced and tested against documented quality procedures. Customers receive consistent products that meet declared performance specifications without exception.
Environmental Management
Our manufacturing processes are managed to minimise environmental impact - from raw material sourcing through production waste handling, aligned with EU environmental legislation.
Occupational Health & Safety
Workplace health and occupational safety are systematically managed across all operations. Our team works in a safe environment and our products ship with complete, compliant safety documentation.
EU Factory Production Control
Our facility operates under EU Factory Production Control - a third-party verified regime that confirms products meet the Construction Products Regulation requirements for CE-marked goods.
Where Science Meets Manufacturing Precision
EU-Certified Manufacturing Facility
Our production plant in Horlești operates under strict EU quality and environmental controls. Raw materials are sourced from approved European suppliers and checked upon arrival before entering production. Finished products undergo full physical and chemical testing in our on-site laboratory before release to stock.
Production capacity is scaled to support project demands across the Eastern European market - from single-site orders to large infrastructure programmes requiring consistent batch quality over months of supply. Our logistics infrastructure allows reliable delivery to construction sites across Romania and to partner distributors in neighbouring countries.
For sprayed concrete and shotcrete applications, Gemite operates a Putzmeister sprayed concrete machine - enabling on-site demonstration, application trials, and supervised installation support for technically complex projects such as tunnel linings, retaining walls, and structural repair work on heritage buildings.
Research & Development Laboratory
Gemite Technology maintains a fully equipped R&D laboratory staffed by materials scientists and chemists focused on advancing the performance of our product families. Current development programmes span cementitious waterproofing, crystalline admixtures, geopolymer binders, flexible polymer coatings, and self-healing concrete additives.
The laboratory serves a dual function: it drives new product development in close dialogue with the technical teams at Gemite Products Inc. in Canada, and it conducts applied testing to support specifiers and project engineers who need performance data beyond standard technical datasheets.
Field performance monitoring - tracking how products behave on real structures over time - feeds back into the development process, ensuring that formulation improvements are grounded in actual service conditions rather than laboratory idealisation alone.
End-to-End Technical Partnership
We do not simply sell products. We enter into a technical partnership with every client - starting at the earliest stage of project development and remaining engaged through completion and beyond.
Specification Assistance
Our technical team works with designers and engineers during the specification phase - analysing exposure conditions, substrate types, and performance requirements to recommend the correct product system.
Design & Quantity Support
We prepare complete system specifications and assist with quantity take-off calculations - ensuring that the bill of quantities reflects the correct coverage rates and system build-up.
On-Site Technical Support
During application, Gemite specialists are available on site to train applicators, verify substrate preparation, check mixing procedures, and confirm that application conditions comply with product requirements.
Project Follow-Up
After completion, we maintain contact with project stakeholders - responding to performance queries, supporting warranty processes, and providing guidance if conditions change during the structure's service life.
