VIAPOL BREIGLAS POLYESTER

APP PLASTOMERIC MEMBRANE FLEX °C 0

PLASTOMERIC (BPP) Polymer Bitumen membrane, compound in distilled bitumen modified with
Compound synthesis polyolefin copolymers APP (Atactic Polypropylene) of high molecular weight obtained by
metallocene catalysis polymerization.
These features give to the membrane an high anti-ageing capacity and the particular formulation also
ensures considerable advantages in the application process, thanks to the high adhesive capacity of the
compound.
Membranes produced with regenerated raw materials, does not contain any dangerous substance such
as oxydized bitumen, tar or asbestos.
Membranes of this range are reinforced with a rot-proof spunbond nonwoven polyester.
Reinforcement This nonwoven polyester guarantees an excellent mechanical strength, tear and puncture resistance.
Membranes of this range have an underside surface finish made with a thermofusible polyethylene PE
Finish film while the top side surface finish in anti-adherent sand.
MINERAL version has the top side surface finish protected with natural or colored slate granules on
request.
Mineral protected rolls are provided with side selvedges, that are not covered with slate chippings but
with plain PE film to promote the connection and sealing of the overlaps.
It is possible to request also an head selvedge (15 cm width)

Warnings
Transport of polymer-bitumen membranes
The transport of the polymer-bitumen membranes requires the use of a suitable means of
transport, of adequate capacity, provided with a continuous planar platform and removable
sides.
In order to prevent dangerous displacements of the goods due to sudden deceleration of the
vehicle or sudden braking, the truck must be provided with safety containment ropes.
Be sure that the safety ropes do not harm the integrity of the rolls.

Storage of polymer-bitumen membranes

The rolls must be stores indoor, in a ventilated environment, away from bad weather and
solar radiation, at a room temperatures no lower than +5 ° C.
The rolls, both loose and palletized, must always be positioned vertically to avoid
ovalizations and possible consequences such as breakage, abnormal tension, unrolling
difficulty, displanarity on the laying surfaces.

Double stacking of the pallets

Avoid, as far as possible, the double stacking of the pallets which, however, must not be
stacked for more than two courses.
If double stacking is unavoidable it is strongly recommended to interpose between the
pallets a rigid separation layer (such as multilayer plywood) to ensure load distribution.

General warnings
It is very important to rationalize the storage of membranes and their use according to a time-
consuming stock picking logic that avoids the use of too-dated rolls.
Make sure, during the distribution phase that the full integrity of the rolls must be assured;
and even check that the structure where the material is needed must be ready to stock it in a
proper way.

Material handling (lifting and moving)

The handling of the membranes during the operations of loading, unloading, lifting to the
laying surfaces, and handling on the site, must be carried out in conditions of full safety,
avoiding the triggering of anomalous stresses in the material or any damage, so as not to
compromise the mechanical / physical characteristics or reliability of the material.
If the pallets must necessarily be stored outdoors, in conditions of high room temperature ,in
any case even for short periods, openings must be made in the heat-shrinkable polyethylene
packaging to facilitate air circulation between the rolls, thus minimizing harmful overheating
due to to solar radiation and the phenomenon of the greenhouse effect.
This practice is particularly important with respect to the elastomeric type membranes which,
by virtue of their compound, possess a lower stability of hot form.

 Pallets protection for outdoor storage
The upper face of the pallet, more engaged by the incident solar heating, must be
adequately protected with covering insulating panels, wooden boards.
During the winter season: store the products at a temperature above +5 ° C, avoiding
exposure to night-time thermal losses (radiation towards the sky). Transfer to the
worksite only the material necessary for daily activities, this practice is also valid for
all other periods of the year.

Reference Temperatures
It is strongly not recommended the application of polymer-bitumen membranes at
room temperatures below +5 ° C, in particular after their overnight stay outdoors. In
fact, the loss of heat by night radiation towards the sky can cause the membranes (and
also the support deck) to assume a lower temperature than the surrounding air. We
can estimate this delta in 2 ÷ 3 ° C. Before starting the laying operations it is necessary
to make sure that the atmospheric conditions are not such as to compromise their
effectiveness.
Do not operate or suspend work in rain, snow, intense fog, abnormal winds, low room
temperature. The stagnation of humidity on the membranes jeopardizes the mutual
adhesion of the membranes to the support deck. The condensation of humidity
between the sheets or that between the sheets and the laying surfaces can, in the
summer period, give rise to uncontrolled evaporations and steam overpressures, thus
causing bubbles, swelling and tensioning in the sealing system.
Always pay the utmost attention to the installation of membranes made with seasonal
compound outside the foreseen environmental conditions.
In winter, store the material that is not strictly necessary for the current laying operations in a protected environment, avoid
sudden unwinding on the laying surfaces of the membranes which, if necessary, must be previously heated slightly and
uniformly using a propane torch.
In summer, store the material not strictly necessary for the current laying operations in a protected/shaded environment,
avoid the application in the sunniest hours of the day, use light footwear, burn only as needed

All VIAPOL membranes partly use recycled raw materials, such as

production waste that is reconditioned and reused instead of being sent
to landfills. Furthermore, VIAPOL membranes do not contain
dangerous substances and are 100% recyclable.
