Lámina impermeabilizante para cubiertas AlkorPlanWaterproofing sheet for roofing AlkorPlan
Made of PVC-P.
Renolit Iberian has developed the Thermoplastic PVC-P AlkorPlan, waterproofing and flexible blade special for roofs that stands out for its great resistance to the swollen, the putrescibilidad and ageing and offers a high level of tightness, even under permanent deformation.
This sheet, combined with colaminados profiles, bindings, putties, pieces of drainage, corner pieces, etc., get perfect finishes tobacconists, especially on flat roofs, but they can also be used for sloping roofs. For this reason, AlkorPlan is used in all kinds of admissible in new works support or rehabilitation.
Its main characteristics, among their security before the fire; reaction to fire up to M2 in France up to A2 in Belgium, external fire up T30/1 and until ENV 1187/1/2/3 and it is self-extinguishing according to UNE 104305. With Union without use of flame.
In terms of the aesthetics, this sheet provides uniformity of the deck due to the discretion of coatings, is available in a wide range of colours and adapts to structures of decks of all kinds of ways.
On the other hand, it is permeable to water, flexible steam and its lifespan, certified by the British Board of Agreement, is more than 25 years.
Also to be monolayer, the sheeting AlkorPlan is differences of bi-layers/multi-layer systems especially in the time of delivery at the site; a roll of 30 m2 of AlkorPlan approximately equals 6 (2 x 3) rolls of bituminous waterproofing in bilayer. In addition, a membrane AlkorPlan weighs up to five times less than the traditional multilayer according to blade.
AlkorPlan is available in three systems: semi-independent (AlkorPlan F), independent (AlkorPlan L) and bond (AlkorPlan A) system.
In the first case, the sealing membrane is fixed mechanically in the bearing element by a system of screws and plates and there is no limitation in the slope of the roof. This system is ideal for inaccessible autoprotegidas decks, technical areas on any type of support or in new construction or rehabilitation.
In the independent system on the other hand, the membrane is located under the filling, to ensure water-tightness, the added protection based on gravel, tile, etc. This system is used for the sealing of the covers protected, inaccessible, or accessible to pedestrians and technical areas.
With regard to adhesion system, the membrane is attached to support by partial or total glue or autoadhesivación. This system is indicated for the tightness of the inaccessible autoprotegidas decks and technical areas where the support cannot be mechanically or rigidly fixing. The lamina may be placed on an ancient layer of bitumen.
