Description
IKO Carrara is an white roofing membrane which can be installed using the torch-on technique. The mineral finishing of IKO Carrara is coated with a type of titanium dioxide (TiO2). Under the influence of UV rays, the membrane acts as a catalyst and converts nitrogen oxides and sulphur oxides (NOx and SOx), which are contributory factors in the acidification of the environment and the greenhouse effect, into harmless and environmentally-neutral substances.
Features and benefits:
- Air Care Technology – the mineral finish helps purify harmful gases in the atmosphere.
- Life expectancy in excess of 30 years.
- Patented IKO “Turbo Profile” for a faster and more secure installation.
- Prevent Firewall Technology.
- Tough and durable composite polyester base.
- Manufactured using 100% green energy and a significant amount of recycled materials.
