Icopal - Launches new cold-applied roofing system
Leading building membranes manufacturer Icopal has
taken another major step forward with the launch of a
high-performance, cold-applied liquid roofing system.
The Parapro waterproofing system is the next generation
of cold-applied liquid roofing technology, incorporating
a polyester reinforcing fleece between two layers of
liquid polyurethane-based coating. This can be applied
“wet on wet”, eliminating the need for drying time
between coats and thus significantly reducing time on
site.
Parapro offers rapid, seamless waterproofing for roofs,
balconies and terraces without the application of heat.
It comprises a base coat of polyurethane liquid onto
which is immediately applied the reinforcing mat. The
“wet on wet” process is then completed with the top coat
of Parapro liquid.
Because it is applied cold using rollers, brushes or
squeegees, use of the system may help to reduce
insurance costs. Demarcated walkways in a variety of
colours and with anti-skid granules can also be created
to ensure pedestrian safety.
Especially suitable foe the refurbishment of existing
flat roofs where alternative, more traditional methods
of renovation prove difficult, its seamless application
is useful for roofs incorporating large amounts of plant
and equipment. Structurally sound roofs can be covered
without stripping the existing waterproofing.
Likewise for new build, it is an ideal choice for
waterproofing concrete balcony decks or terraces that
may subsequently be covered over or left exposed.
