Application

For roofs with regular traffic, or roofs in severe weather climates.

Description

The Inverted System is a variation of the conventional ballasted system. It is particularly suitable for roofs with regular traffic, or roofs in severe weather climates. It can be applied on any building that can accommodate the extra load of the ballast and where the roof slope does not exceed 10%.


Features and benefits:

  • Circular system.
  • Low installation cost.
  • Use of large EPDM sheets.
  • Fewer seams.
  • Fast installation.
  • Large choice of compatible substrates.
  • Excellent durability
  • Flexibility for upgrading of insulation in reroofing projects.


System components:

  • RubberGard™ EPDM LSFR.
  • Bonding Adhesive BA-2012 (for vertical membrane application).
