How do we waterproof your roof?
Treat your roof to the ultimate cold-applied waterproof raincoat: a combination of liquid polyurethane, the right primer for your roof, and geo-textiles if appropriate. Self-levelling if you need it, or the self-levelling properties can be removed with a thixotropic additive... making this fully waterproof roofing solution ideal on any roof - sloped or flat!

Self-levelling roofing compound
-
Rapid Cure options - cures within 24 hours but even more rapid curing can be achieved by adding accelerants
Certifications:
-
BBA approved: Currently certified for 10 years, but lasts longer than this, so we're in the process of updating to 25 year certificate
-
25 year European Technical Approval: (ETA no 06/0263)
-
Applus certification for both contact with potable water and root perforation (so it's also suitable for green roof application)
ADVANTAGES:
-
Water Resistant: Can be in permanent contact with water. Certified safe in contact with drinking water for human consumption (according to 98/83/CE Directive).
-
Puncture Resistant: Has obtained a P3 value on EOTA puncture tests (European Organisation for Technical Approvals) - means product can withstand a constant load of 21kg/cm².
-
Fast Curing: Within 24 hours - even in low temperatures and high humidity. Accelerants can further reduce cure time, meaning even faster installation!
-
Allows pedestrians to walk directly onto product without additional protection. For heavy traffic (i.e. car parks), an additional coat is recommended.
-
Forms a continuous, seamless, adhered membrane, with no elongation or contraction at joints. Won’t allow water flow between layers (unlike conventional non adhered membranes such as PVC, EPDM, HDPE, etc).
-
Excellent Adhesion on most surfaces. Even on wet substrates, full adhesion is achievable using special humidity primer.
-
Resistant to impact and abrasion
-
Excellent resistance to micro-organisms
-
Resistant to temperature variations: Membrane retains elastomeric characteristics in temperatures between –50°C and +100°C.
-
100% waterproof, but allows for vapor diffusion (please enquire regarding our ETA document for specific values).
-
Great resistance to chemical agents (cleaning products, etc.).
-
Allows for many different roof and flooring configurations: Can be installed above or below the insulation layer, and can be covered or exposed.
