Euroroof Flat Roofing Membranes

A new range of bituminous waterproof membraneswith faster, flexible installation methods

3

The Euroroof range is designed to transform the process ofworking with traditional bituminous membrane systems,speeding up installation time without compromising the long term performance of the waterproofing solution.

Euroroof’s speed of installation and flexibility of application isideally suited to the refurbishment of existing roofs, whether tore-establish the integrity of the waterproofing, upgrade thermalperformance or to improve roof drainage. Equally, time and costefficiencies can be applied to new-build projects.

Range Overview

Euroroof’s flexible range of vapour barriers, underlays and bituminouscap sheets form a fully functional, cost-effective roofing solution.

Euroroof Mono

Euroroof Mono offers a single layer, flame-freewaterproofing solution for both new construction and refurbishment projects.

Euroroof Mastergold

Euroroof Mastergold transforms working with traditionalbituminous membranes, speeding up installation timewithout compromising long-term performance.

Euroroof Rapid

The Euroroof Rapid single layer overlay is torch-applied toquickly re-establish the long-term waterproofing integrity ofroofs in need of refurbishment due to failing roof membranes.

> The New Euroroof RangeInstallers and specifiers can choose from a new range of cost-effective Euroroof cap sheets, along with aselection of Euroroof vapour barriers and underlays that are fully compatible with all existing Alumascwaterproofing solutions. These interchangeablemembranes offer a wide choice of application methods to suit all project and site safety requirements.

> Durable, Flexible SystemsEuroroof systems are designed to be simply installed and fully adaptable to both new build and refurbishment applications. With high tensilestrength and pliability, the membranes perform inthe harshest conditions, with excellent resistance to puncture and UV degradation.

> Fully WarrantedEuroroof membranes offer the quality of performancethat you would expect from Alumasc, with full projectsupport and a range of warranties for long-term peace of mind.

Euroroof systems carry a range of insurance backedwarranties, covering design, product and installation.

> Fire PerformanceThe Euroroof Mastergold cap sheet is tested to BS 476: Part 3 and is unrestricted in use under thecurrent Building Regulations, Approved Document B.

> Three Application MethodsEuroroof vapour barriers and underlays offerconsistent technical performance across a variety of installation methods to best suit project requirements.

They can be installed in any one of three ways,including a flame-free application method forsensitive detailing and high risk environments.

The choice of application method is: Thermo-Adhesive, Self-Adhesive and Torch-On.

> Quality & EnvironmentEuroroof membranes are manufactured andindependently assessed to the ISO 9001:2008 QualityManagement Standard, ensuring the highest possibleconsistency of product and service performance.

Euroroof membranes are manufactured to the ISO 14001:2004 Environmental Management Standardand score highly in BREEAM ratings (notably inSection MAT5 for responsible sourcing of materials).

They contribute to a very good generic rating in theBRE’s Green Guide to Specification, capable of an‘A+’ rating when installed on timber or metal decks.
