SmartCare Bitushield APP Membrane

SmartCare Bitushield APP Membrane

System Description:

SmartCare Bitushield APP is an APP-modified bituminous waterproofing membrane reinforced with non-woven spun-bond polyester fabric. It delivers excellent tensile strength, puncture resistance, fatigue resistance, and dimensional stability for long-term waterproofing reliability.

Key Features

  • Excellent Flexibility: The membrane can accommodate structural movements, ensuring the integrity of the waterproofing layer remains intact.
  • Water and Vapour Resistance: It provides excellent resistance to both positive water pressure and vapour pressure.
  • Mechanical Strength: The product features high tensile and tear strengths, making it durable against physical stresses.
  • Fatigue Resistance: It possesses high fatigue resistance, alLowing it to withstand repeated cycles of stress over time.
  • Dimensional Stability: The membrane maintains good dimensional stability even when subjected to tension during its service life.
  • Chemical Attack Resistance: It offers resistance to water-borne chemical attacks, protecting the structure from aggressive substances in the water.
  • Heat Resistance: The material has good heat resistance, ensuring performance is maintained in various temperature conditions.
  • Versatile Installation: It may be torched directly over old shingles or old membranes, making it suitable for renovation projects.
