BPOCO POLYFLEX

DESCRIPTION
POLYFLEX is a uniquely formulated prefabricated waterproofing membrane with a special multi-layered design for superior pliability, tensile strength, workability and resistance to elements. The multi-layered design consists of a polyester core coated on both sides with modified bitumen. The polyester core gives the membrane high tensile strength, elongation and superior lap joint strength.

USES
POLYFLEX  membranes are ideal for a wide range of waterproofing applications including roofs, reservoirs, basements, tunnels and car parks. POLYFLEX  may be utilized in exposed and covered applications

OUTSTANDING FEATURES
· Dimensional impermiability
· Excellent resistance to aging & weathering  
- Outstanding bond ability & seam integrity.
- Very high resistance to impact & puncture.

FINISHES
POLYFLEX is available in two basic finishes:
- Black smooth finish with polyethylene  surfaces for covered pplications.
- Coloured granule surfacing for exposed applications.

QUALITY CONTROL
In addition to stringent regular tests by BITUMAT laboratory, our products are tested periodically by Bureau Veritas, SOCOTEC, Paris, France. 

STANDARDS
POLYFLEX complies with the requirements and tolerance levels of :
1. The American Societty For Testing & Material ASTM D-6222 Type I
2.UEAtc (European Union of Technical Agreement).
3.MOAT 27-1983 and MOAT 30-1984.
4 .CGSB (Canadian General Standards Board) 37-GP56M-July 1980

INSTALLATION TOOLS REQUIRED
Gas torch, Knife, Trowel, Measuring tape, Marking string, Gloves.

APPLICATION
POLYFLEX is installed by torch welding method, loose-laid or fully bonded to substrate. When loose-laid, only laps are bonded together. Peripheries and protrusions are sealed according to specifications.

TORCHING GUIDELINES
The underside of the membrane should be torched just enough to superficially melt the bitumen. Excessive heating may damage the reinforcement. Overlaps should be re-heated from the top and resealed with a trowel to ensure seam integrity.For details of installation methods and flashing requirements, consult the relevant BITUMAT Design and Installation Manual.
