1. Product Overview

 

Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer (EPDM) Waterproof Membrane is a highly durable, synthetic rubber roofing membrane known for its excellent waterproofing properties. It is made from a combination of ethylene, propylene, and diene monomers, resulting in a material that offers superior resistance to environmental factors such as UV rays, ozone, and extreme weather conditions. EPDM membranes are ideal for flat and low-slope roofing applications, as well as for use in foundations, basements, and other critical waterproofing needs.

 

2. Key Features

Durable Synthetic Rubber: Provides outstanding long-term performance with high resistance to weathering, UV rays, and ozone.

Superior Waterproofing: Ensures a strong and reliable barrier against water infiltration, preventing leaks and moisture damage.

UV and Ozone Resistance: Withstands prolonged exposure to UV rays and ozone, making it highly suitable for outdoor applications.

Flexible and Elastic: Maintains flexibility and elasticity in varying temperatures, allowing it to adapt to building movement.

Environmentally Friendly: EPDM is non-toxic and can be recycled, offering an eco-friendly option for waterproofing.

Low Maintenance: Requires minimal maintenance and retains its performance over time without cracking or degrading.

 

3. Applications

Roofing systems, particularly for flat and low-slope roofs.

Foundation and basement waterproofing.

Waterproofing for ponds, tunnels, and reservoirs.

Sealing for joints, seams, and penetrations.

Suitable for both residential and commercial applications.

 

4. Installation Process

1. Surface Preparation: Clean and dry the surface thoroughly, ensuring it is free of debris, dust, and contaminants.

2. Roll out the Membrane: Unroll the EPDM membrane onto the prepared surface.

3. Adhesive Application: Apply the adhesive to both the surface and the back of the membrane for secure bonding.

4. Position and Press: Position the membrane accurately and press it down firmly to ensure adhesion.

5. Sealing Joints: Overlap adjacent sheets and use appropriate seam treatments (such as heat welding or adhesive bonding) to form continuous, waterproof seams.

6. Inspection: Conduct a thorough inspection to ensure the membrane is correctly applied with no gaps or air pockets.
