<span style="font-weight: bold;">Mapei waterproofing systems ensure that structures are waterproofed, protected and durable over the years.<br />
<br />
Terrace roofs</span><br />
Mapelastic, Mapelastic Smart are elastic, cementitious waterproofing systems which, thanks to their content of high quality synthetic resins, maintain their high elasticity in all weather conditions, ensuring their characteristics remain stable over the years. The high adhesion of Mapelastic, Mapelastic Smart to various types of substrate means that they can be used to waterproof new roofs as well as repair existing roofs without having to remove the old covering material.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;">Characteristics and advantages: </span><br />
<ul>
<li>Years of experience</li>
<li>Flexibility even at low temperatures</li>
<li>Resistance to UV rays</li>
<li>Perfect adhesion to numerous types of substrate</li>
<li>No demolition work required</li>
<li>May be applied over existing covering materials</li>
<li>CE-certified products in compliance with EN 14891 and EN 1504-2 standards</li>
<li>Used in combination with system accessories for guaranteed waterproofing.</li></ul><br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;">Coloured exposed roofs</span><br />
Aquaflex Roof and Aquaflex Roof premium are ready-to-use, liquid elastic membranes that are designed to be left exposed. <br />
<br />
They provide excellent adhesion on various types of substrate and their versatility means that they are easy to apply, including on areas with a tricky shape or with complicated features. The excellent crack-bridging properties, even at low temperatures, exceptional elasticity of more than 350 per cent and high resistance to chemicals of Purtop membranes, means that they can be used for a variety of applications, to guarantee a waterproofing layer that is strong, elastic and seamless. <br />
<br />
Purtop System Roof, which uses Purtop 400 M and Purtop 1000 membranes guarantees immediate waterproofing and long-lasting protection for roofs.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;">Characteristics and advantages:</span><br />
<ul>
<li>Resistance to UV rays and atmospheric agents</li>
<li>Excellent adhesion to numerous types of substrate</li>
<li>Easy to apply</li>
<li>May be applied over existing covering materials</li>
<li>Elasticity for high crack-bridging ability</li>
<li>CE-certified products in compliance with EN 1504-2 standards.</li></ul><br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;">Green Roof</span><br />
A "green" or "garden roof" has numerous beneficial effects on a construction: Better insulation which leads to lower energy consumption, lowers temperatures inside the building and reduces the effect of urban heat islands, absorbs CO2 and reduces fine dust level, improves air quality, purifies rainwater and provides a cleaner environment. Mapeplan TB (FPO) synthetic membranes comply with all the requirements of hanging roof gardens, excellent flexibility at low temperatures, long-lasting durability, good workability and weld ability and good resistance to micro-organisms, among others.<br />
Characteristics and advantages: <br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;">Ideal for green roofs</span><br />
<ul>
<li>Resistance to root penetration (FLL - EN 13948)</li>
<li>High mechanical strength and puncture resistance</li>
<li>Easy to repair and easy to maintain systems</li>
<li>CE-certified products in compliance with EN 13707 and EN 13956 (roof membranes and sheets)</li>
<li>Products are reinforced with fabric with high dimensional stability.</li></ul><br />
Green Roof Mapei systems are technologically advanced systems used to provide excellent waterproofing for roofs, as well as the possibility to create green roofs, thereby contributing in reducing the heat island phenomenon. The products used in the Green Roof systems include hybrid polyurea membranes such as Purtop 400 M and pure polyurea membranes such as Purtop 1000. All Mapei Green Roof systems have passed severe testing regimes to assess their resistance to root penetration and perforation and microbiological attack.<br />
