Description
Protec Evolve is an advanced low-odour and highly durable liquid-applied membrane suitable for a range of applications, including sensitive projects such as hospitals and schools. The fast-curing, fully-reinforced cold liquid-applied membrane offers an extended lifespan with a market-leading 30-year durability rating from the BBA.
RapidCure technology utilizes catalyst, accelerators and inhibitors allowing full control over cure times across a wide range of temperatures all year round. The seamless Protec Evolve membrane features the optimum combination of flexibility and toughness, making it ideal for roofs terraces and walkways of all sizes including situations requiring regular foot traffic. Where new insulation is required, the Protec Evolve Warm Roof System can be specified as a flat or tapered scheme to provide a highly efficient solution to meet the very highest thermal performance requirements. Protec Evolve is supported by Polyroof’s Approved System Guarantees for up to 25 years.
Features and benefits:
- Low odour advanced formulation suitable for sensitive applications.
- Flexible and tough membrane - A flexible hybrid polymer waterproofing system with flexibility and robustness.
- RapidCure Technology - Fast application with cure times as low as 30 minutes.
- Seamless waterproof membrane - applied as a liquid, Protec Evolve forms a seamless waterproof membrane with no joints, no welds and no weak points.
- Cold-applied installation with zero risks from hot works: Unlike many traditional roofing materials that require open flame hot works to install, Protec Evolve is fully cold-applied meaning there are no risks of accidental fire during installation.
- Fire performance - Classified as BROOF(t4), the top rating achievable for a flat roof system and designating Protec Evolve as unrestricted under the national requirements.
- Protec Evolve is BBA Certified (Certificate no. 09/4676) with a certified lifespan of at least 30 years. Protec Evolve is also UKTA Certified (UKTA-0836-23/6986).
- Suitable for use with zero falls in accordance with BBA certificate 09/4676.
- Manufactured in accordance with BS EN ISO 9001:2015 and BS EN 14001:2015.
- Protec Evolve waterproofing membrane has a third party verified, product specific EPD to EN 15804:2012+A2:2019.
