APP MEMBRANE WATERPROOFING

APP stands for Atactic Polypropylene. APP membrane is the most commonly used waterproofing material on concrete roofs and low-slope roofs. APP membrane is applied to asphalts with a torch. Applications of APP membranes aren’t limited to just roofs. Man made ponds, bathrooms, water tanks, curtain walls, concrete channels can be protected against water ingress with APP waterproofing membrane. APP membrane is a durable waterproofing material largely preferred by contractors for safeguarding surfaces against leakage.

Features

• APP membranes are characterized by high tensile strength. Tensile strength refers to the amount of stress that can be applied before a material breaks under tension.

• APP membranes are 100% impermeable, ruling out any chances of leakage after applying on the chosen surface

• These are resistant to weathering. APP membranes are durable and won’t succumb to changing climatic conditions which is absolutely a must-have feature for a waterproofing material.

• APP membranes possess isotropic properties. Isotropic properties mean that the materials in the membrane won’t change properties in response to a change in direction.

• Seam integrity is another important feature of the APP membrane along with providing outstanding bondability

• These membranes provide flexibility at low temperatures and dimensional stability at high temperatures.

• APP membranes are more easy to apply under hot-melt conditions.
