Horizontal work

IKOpro Bonding Agent.

Guidance for specification option:

IKOpro Systems Bonding Agent (black) is a specially formulated primer. Enhancing the properties of self- adhesive bitumen roofing membranes, it promotes strong bonds even at temperatures as low as 5°C.


S-A membranes only.

IKOpro Sprayfast MPP.

Guidance for specification option:

KOpro Sprayfast MPP (Black, Multipurpose Primer) is a

specially formulated high performance bonding primer.

It allows the speed of application of the bonding primer

to be five times faster than conventional bitumen primers,

promoting strong bonds at temperatures as low as

5°C. For self adhesive and torch applied bitumen membranes.

IKOpro Quick Dry Bitumen Primer.

Guidance for specification option:

IKOpro Quick Dry Bitumen Primer (black) is a fast-drying bitumen priming solution for torch applied bitumen membranes.

Type

IKO Ultra S-A Air and Vapour Control Layer.

Guidance for specification option:

Self adhesive for combustible substrates


S-A VCL (Self-Adhesive) is a high performance vapour barrier for use in adhered IKO Polymeric systems. It is composed of a polyester reinforced aluminium core, coated with a rubber modified, self-adhesive bitumen coating. The membrane is protected on the underside with a release film backing and coated on the top surface with a fine mineral finish. A selvedge of 75mm width, protected with release film, provides a quick means of completing side laps.

IKO Ultra T-O Air and Vapour Control Layer.

Guidance for specification option:

Torch applied to non combustible substrates only


T-O VCL (Torch-on) is a high performance vapour control layer for use in adhered IKO Polymeric systems. It comprises an impervious aluminium core, reinforced with polyester and coated with a specially formulated quick melt SBS modified bitumen. The lower surface has a sacrificial film which rapidly melts during the torching operation.
