Durable EPDM Rubber Sheet
This reliable waterproofing is essential to every building as this membrane never allows water to pass through and maintains this amazing quality over years. It withstands movements of the structure, bad weather, chemical degradation and mechanical stress and strain.
Moreover EPDM (ETHYLENE PROPLEYNE DYMER) membranes are economical solution compared to traditional systems, not a single drop of water will pass through the EPDM membrane.
Moreover EPDM roof membranes are economical solution compared to traditional systems, not a single drop of water will pass through the EPDM membrane roof. EPDM Rubber Sheet can withstand temperature from -40ºC .EPDM Rubber can be stretched to 400%; the membrane will not tear, crack to +140ºC or split. It has an unfailing flexibility.
Durability
EDM Rubber Application is warranted for 10 yrs. This does not imply that it is durable only for this period. The treatment, being very inert, is durable for a very long period.
