GRP
is a modified single ply laminate, which is cold applied in
situ, to create a joint and weld free continuous high performance
covering to any flat roof. A covering which can be provided
in a choice of colours and which when cured is virtually maintenance
fee. It can be used for domestic or commercial flat roofs, for
balconies and walkways, for gutters and valleys, or to simulate
lead or other traditional finishes. The versatility of GRP is
demonstrated by its use in Industrial flooring applications,
tanking applications and as an inert hygienic surface in food
preparation areas.
GRP more commonly referred to as “glassfibre” is
formed in situ by reinforcing polyester resin, which has been
cured or hardened with a peroxide based catalyst with an emulsion
bound chop strand mat. Once cured this forms a joint free laminate
that will outlast virtually any other traditional flat roof
material GRP is a cold applied system
that is ideally suited to both simple and complex structural
designs and can be rapidly applied and cured to prevent water
ingress, giving total protection.
High performance is achieved as GRP is made
up of a combination of modified polyester base resin, emulsion
bound chop strand mat and a finishing coat of pre-pigmented
topcoat. When cured GRP is guaranteed to provide performance
beyond that of more traditional bitumen or polymer based waterproofing
coatings.
Bitumen based waterproofing systems have
been used for almost 2000 years. Unfortunately the only thing
that all bitumen based products have in common is how little
time will they take to fail. With GRP you now have a cost
effective alternative that if installed to the correct specification
should easily outlast the performance of the overall flat
roof structure. GRP is designed to perform.
GRP systems have been used successfully
for over 20-years. They are fast becoming the preferred choice
of Architects, Specifiers and Local Authorities. Only installed
by highly skilled and suitably trained installers clients
can be assured that GRP will continue to perform long after
more traditional flat roof coatings have failed. GRP is a
permanent solution for your flat roof.
GRP Flat Roofs are also:
- Fire Retardent
- Light Weight
- Versatile
- Available with non slip coating
- Suitable for balconies and verandas
