Waterproofing

Water tightness

Ensures water tightness and extends the service life of each roof.

Proper roof waterproofing prevents leaks, ensures comfort and safety, and allows for more efficient maintenance in every project.

Waterproofing is a key aspect in roof construction, especially for flat roofs, which lack sufficient slope to drain rainwater. Therefore, one of the main challenges in designing them is ensuring effective watertightness.

The absence of proper waterproofing can lead to leaks and structural damage. To prevent this, specific materials are used, such as waterproofing sheets, sealants, and high-quality putties, along with sealing techniques at joints, corners, and penetration points.


BITUMINOUS

Asphalt Sheets

We offer a range of bituminous sheets with plastomeric (APP) or elastomeric (SBS) bitumen, from two-layer and self-protected systems to high-performance solutions such as the Elite range and features like D-Tox.

These sheets ensure long-lasting watertightness against rainwater and withstand the effects of climatic and mechanical agents. Thanks to their flexibility and ability to adapt to different substrates and geometries, they provide a versatile solution, protecting structures and extending the lifespan of the building.

High Durability:
They retain their waterproofing properties for decades.

Advantages

Application Versatility:
They adapt to flat and sloped roofs, as well as construction details.

Advantages

Weather Resistance:
They withstand temperature changes, UV radiation, and mechanical loads.

Advantages

Guaranteed Safety:
They provide protection against leaks and structural damage.

PVC / TPO

Synthetic Sheets

Synthetic sheets, made from PVC or TPO, are versatile solutions that can be installed as floating or mechanically fastened systems, adapting to the roof structure.

These sheets are ideal for waterproofing and durability across various roof types. Additionally, SOPREMA offers Cool Roof sheets, such as Energy Plus, which reflect heat with their white surface, improve energy efficiency, and help reduce urban heat islands.

Advantages

Flexibility and adaptability:
They conform to different roof shapes and geometries.

Advantages

Durability and resistance:
They provide excellent performance against UV rays, ozone, and weathering agents.

Advantages

Sustainability:
Recyclable systems with Cool Roof options to improve energy efficiency.

LIQUID

Liquid membranes

They adhere to the roof surface, forming a continuous, seamless layer. They are easy to apply, especially on roofs with complex surfaces and irregular geometries.

SOPREMA offers four types of liquid waterproofing: acrylic (Campolin® and Campolin® Fiber), polyurethane-acrylic hybrid dispersions (Campolin® Neo), polyurethane (Alsan® Pur), and polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA). Each type is tailored to different needs, providing excellent durability, protection, and ease of application to ensure performance under various conditions.

Advantages

Guaranteed Watertightness:
It creates an effective waterproof barrier against water.

Advantages

Resistance and durability:
It maintains its properties against weather and aging.

Advantages

Versatile application:
Ideal for roofs with irregular shapes and complex detailing.

Advantages

High elasticity:
Adapts to structural movements and thermal expansion without cracking.

Featured Products:

This range offers easy application, high performance, and a variety of technologies, ensuring long-lasting waterproofing even under the most demanding conditions.
