System performance | Waterproofing system, BBA certificate No. 09/4653, resistant to roots in conformity with DIN EN 13948 (FLL guidelines), resistant to spreading fire and radiant heat, as specified in DIN 4102, Part 7 and is fireproof as defined by BS 476, Part 3, 2004. |
Preparation | |
Horizontal work | EshaFlex SA Primer.Guidance for specification option: A solvent based cold applied bituminous primer for use with Esha SA roofing felts and Esha Universal SA on metal, concrete, stone or timber. EshaPrimer.Guidance for specification option: A quick drying black bitumen priming solution designed to penetrate and seal a variety of porous surfaces including masonry, concrete, cementitious screed/renders, existing bituminous waterproofing and structural steelwork. EshaPrimer creates a base seal and improves the adhesion of bituminous waterproofing solutions. Red Primer.Guidance for specification option: Designed for use with self adhesive SBS modified bitumen roofing membranes and is intended for use on concrete and various porous substrates to aid initial and long term adhesion of the membrane particularly when application is taking place at the lower end of the temperature range (+5°C) for these membranes.

Air and vapour control layer | AluBase XL.Guidance for specification option: A self-adhesive bituminous waterproofing membrane that forms a barrier against vapour and gases. EshaBase Alu.Guidance for specification option: EshaBase Alu is a torch applied aluminium cored vapour barrier for bituminous roofing-systems. EshaBase SA Alu 3 mm.Guidance for specification option: A self-adhesive SBS modified Vapour Barrier for bituminous roofing system. EshaBase SA Alu 4.2 mm.Guidance for specification option: A self-adhesive SBS modified Vapour Barrier for bituminous roofing system. EshaBase SA Sand.Guidance for specification option: A self-adhesive SBS modified Vapour Barrier for bituminous roofing system. |
Insulation | |
Type | ProTherm Mineral Wool.ProTherm Mineral Wool Tapered.ProTherm PIR Adhered.Guidance for specification option: A rigid Polyisocyanurate (PIR) foam insulation for use in single ply roofing-systems on suitable surfaces. ProTherm PIR Adhered Tapered.Guidance for specification option: A rigid Polyisocyanurate (PIR) foam tapered insulation for use in single ply roofing-systems on suitable surfaces. ProTherm FOAMGLAS® T3+ Slab.Guidance for specification option: Cellular glass insulation slab. ProTherm FOAMGLAS® T3+ Tapered Slab.Guidance for specification option: Cellular glass insulation tapered slab. |
Fixing | EshaPur 95/25 Oxidised Bitumen.Guidance for specification option: A hot applied oxidised bitumen solution for use on metal, concrete, stone or timber. 95/25 is a bituminous product manufactured by air blowing of penetration grade bitumen, at high temperature, resulting in a material of a much higher penetration index. Insta-Stik Roofing Adhesive.Guidance for specification option: Developed for the attachment of insulation boards to a variety of substrates on flat roofs. It is a cold applied system that is, quick, easy to use and provides fast adhesion within 20–45 minutes. PC®58 Cold Adhesive.Guidance for specification option: A solvent-free two- component adhesive. |
Overlay | |
Type | Not required.AluBase XL.Fiberglass tape to board joints.Vedatop SU.Guidance for specification option: A self-adhesive SBS-modified base layer reinforced with a high tear resistant carrier. |
Carrier membrane | |
Type | ParaFlex FD system can be overlaid on existing (roof) membrane in cold roof applications and can be combined with most bitumen and plastic roof sealing sheeting.Guidance for specification option: Note that some substrates may require a specialist primer e.g. steel and copper. Read instructions on the application sheets or consult with manufacturer for more details. |
Liquid-applied waterproofing | |
Type | ParaFlex FD Cold-Applied Liquid Waterproofing - Anthracite RAL7021.ParaFlex FD Cold-Applied Liquid Waterproofing - Light Grey RAL7035 .Manufacturer guidanceA UV stable, cold, liquid applied waterproofing membrane suitable for many roof types: flat, sloping roof and complex roof shapes such as cupolas and barrel roofs. ParaFlex FD is also used to waterproof vertical surfaces. |
Reinforcement | ParaFlex Reinforcement Fleece.Guidance for specification option: The first coat of ParaFlex FD is applied using a lambswool roller, and spread evenly prior to the installation of the polyester reinforcement, which is rolled into the wet resin and pressed free of trapped air using the roller. Each subsequent piece of reinforcement should have an overlap of at least 50 mm and sufficient resin should be beneath the reinforcement to maintain the system’s bond. A second layer of ParaFlex FD is applied and evenly spread. |
Surface treatment | Unfinished.ParaFlex Topsiegel Walkway / Balcony System.Finishes in accordance with Landscaping Architect. |
System accessories | Not required.ParaFlex G165/G225 Reinforcement Fleece.Guidance for specification option: A polyester mesh fabric that helps regulate layer thickness of the ParaFlex FD and improves the cured breaking strength. ParaFlex G120 Reinforcement Fleece.Guidance for specification option: Reinforcing membrane for use with ReadySeal or ParaFlex FD cold liquid applied waterproofing systems. ParaFlex FD Drag Strip.Guidance for specification option: Debonding tape used to create a slip joint or expansion joint beneath ParaFlex FD. ParaFlex Universal Primer.Guidance for specification option: Multi-purpose primer for use with ParaFlex FD. |
Fire performance | EXT. F. ACX as tested to BS 476-3: 2004. Guidance for specification option: Test results apply to flat (horizontal) roof systems (EXT.F.). One hour fire penetration (4.2.2 and 4.2.3) resistance (first letter A) on which the spread of flame (4.2.3) exceeded 533 mm (second letter C) and further deterioration took place (suffix X - dripping from the underside of the specimen or development of holes, suffix (X) designation denotes that one or more of these took place during the test). |
