Application

  • For roofs with regular traffic, or roofs in severe weather climates.
  • Can be applied on any building that can accommodate the extra load of the ballast and where the roof slope does not exceed 10%.

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. The membrane is loosely laid beneath the insulation and the system is held in place using approved ballast.


Features and benefits:

  • Circular system.
  • Low installation cost.
  • Use of large TPO panels up to 3.05 m.
  • Fewer seams.
  • Fast installation.
  • Large choice of compatible substrates.
  • Excellent durability.
  • Flexibility for upgrading of insulation in reroofing projects.


System components:

  • UltraPly™ TPO.
  • Bonding Adhesive BA-2012 (for vertical membrane application).
