As roofing systems become more complex and the choice of waterproofing widens, designing a roofing system becomes more of a challenge. One way to remove the risks associated is to draw on the expertise of a specialist who can help you make the right choices.
SIG Design Technology offers a genuinely independent choice of waterproofing for flat, green, zinc and copper roofs. Designs are covered by our PI insurance and we’re part of SIG plc, a FTSE250 company.
The waveform roof finish to this Peak District bottling plant in bottle green (RAL 6007) reflects the rolling hills nearby. Architects Fletcher-Rae chose locally manufactured IKO Armourplan Premium PVC for its BREEAM Excellent credentials. 12000m2 of single ply provides the waterproofing over foil-faced insulation on a metal deck. This curved roof even in a bespoke colour was competitive against panel roofing systems.
Hot melt waterproofing is a fully bonded system with no joints, ideal for green and inverted roofs on concrete like this one at Riverbank House, City of London, even on zero falls. Hot melt is easily installed by our network of trained and approved contractors, even where there’s roof-mounted plant.
A cold, liquid-applied waterproofing system is best for this metal deck roof refurbishment to a plant room. Tough, highly elastic and multifunctional, it acts as sealer, underlay, vapour barrier and gutter liner in one. It’s fast curing even at low temperatures and adheres to almost any substrate.
