Nadi International Airport
Proven where failure isn't an option.
Proven where failure isn't an option
Few environments are tougher on a roof than a tropical international airport sitting just metres from the ocean.
Nadi International Airport is exposed to intense tropical sun, salt-laden coastal air, high humidity and torrential rain — conditions that rapidly degrade ordinary roof coatings and accelerate corrosion.
That's why Noxyde was chosen.
Designed to provide long-term corrosion protection while remaining permanently flexible, Noxyde forms a seamless waterproof membrane that won't become brittle, crack or peel as the roof expands and contracts. Its proven performance in some of the world's harshest coastal environments makes it the trusted choice for projects where durability, reliability and long-term protection are essential.
Projects like Nadi International Airport demonstrate why Noxyde has been trusted around the world for decades — protecting everything from industrial roofs and commercial buildings to bridges and critical infrastructure, wherever failure simply isn't an option.
What the roof has to survive
- Intense tropical sun and UV load
- Salt-laden coastal air, metres from the ocean
- High humidity year-round
- Torrential tropical rain

NoxydeNoxyde Anti-Corrosion Coating
Paint straight over prepared rust, stopping corrosion for decades.
Noxyde is the only anti-corrosion waterproofing membrane on the market that can be applied directly over clean, prepared rust — no separate primer required. For over 29 years it has protected New Zealand's most severe coastal environments, from saltwater estuary bridges to iconic steel roofs. It is also used to extend the life and safely encapsulate asbestos roofs, locking fibres in place and adding decades of waterproof protection without the cost of removal.
