All about euroruberoid

At the present time, in the design of roofing, sheathing of various building structures, euroruberoid is used. Moreover, it can act as a reliable waterproofing material. Today we will talk about its main features, as well as what types it can be.

Euroruberoid has a number of important characteristics that distinguish it from a simple roofing material. Let's consider each of them separately.

This roofing material does not include cardboard; instead, fiberglass or fiberglass is most often used, sometimes fiberglass is also taken.

In addition, the upper part of the euroruberoid is made with a special impregnation, consisting of polymer components. In the production process, such material is coated on both sides with a special binder, which is created on the basis of bitumen and various technological additives.

Euroruberoid can be of several basic types.

• Liquid. This variety is created on the basis of liquid rubber. It is the easiest to install as it does not need to be heated. In addition, this type is particularly durable, it can last for many years and even decades. The maximum strength and reliability of the base is achieved due to the content of bitumen, special plasticizers, mineral additives, polymers and rubber in the composition. In case of damage, it will be easy to carry out repair work, the damaged area is quickly removed. Often, liquid euroruberoid is used to create the entire roofing structure completely. But it should be noted that this species has a higher price compared to other varieties.

• Weldable. This material can only be used after the bottom has melted. In its production, a special bitumen-polymer substance is taken as a basis, which is poured onto a base made of fiberglass or polyester. The upper protective layer of this euroruberoid will not need to be melted and applied with construction mastic. The deposited type can be used in any climatic conditions. Often it is this material that is taken to insulate large reinforced concrete slabs.

• Uniflex. This bitumen-polymer roofing material is often used as one of the layers of the roofing cake. The coating contains artificial rubber. It is the latter that provides the maximum indicators of frost resistance and heat resistance of the base. Sometimes it is purchased to create a waterproofing structure. Uniflex is also divided into 3 separate types: bottom, top and special for ventilated roofing. The first option is created without granular dressing, it is it that is most often used when creating waterproofing. The second option has a special coating, it can be used as an independent roof. The third option can be taken for the device of the roofing cake.

• Self-adhesive. This euroruberoid is used when working with concrete, wood and steel. The service life of such material is no more than 10 years.To glue the material, you just need to carefully remove the film, roll out the roll over the surface. The color of such roofing material is most often dark gray.

As already noted, euroruberoid can be in liquid form. This material is quite easy to apply. It is sold in sealed containers. Often in the process of construction work, such a composition is sprayed using spray guns.

The most common option is rolled euroruberoid. It is as simple as possible to lay it on almost any substrate. To do this, you just need to roll it onto the prepared surface.

The sizes of roll models can also vary. Products with values ​​of 10x1, 15x1 m are often found.

Most often, euroruberoid is used to cover the roof, to provide proper waterproofing. Moreover, even one layer will be enough during its installation. Wherein such a roof will turn out to be as reliable and fireproof as possible.

Almost any person can lay such material without the help of professionals. If you purchased a liquid composition, then you must first dilute it - as a rule, all proportions are indicated in the instructions. It should acquire good fluidity. As diluents, special components are used, including carbon substances.

After that, you will need to prepare the surface on which the material will be laid. It is thoroughly cleaned of all contaminants. Then you should make a primer with a special primer and preliminary fitting.

The resulting composition is not recommended for hot application. For to apply euroruberoid to the structure, you can use various painting devices, you can also take a spray bottle. For even distribution of the composition, you can use a special rubber squeegee.

If you are laying roll material, then you can use a blowtorch. At the same time, the bottom layer and the base are heated, and then the product is rolled out with an overlap. In this form, everything is pressed as tightly as possible by the roller. At the same time, the seams are once again well warmed up and again processed with a roller, this is done in order to make the coating completely sealed.
