FIBREGLASS REINFORCED POLYESTER MEMBRANE
These membranes, are a rigid form of structure - using polyester resin and fibreglass mesh as the reinforcement.
The polyester is a two part system based on a resin formed from an acid anhydride,
The resin is mixed with a peroxide catalyst to cause the resin to harden.
The end result is a fabricated sheet that is molded into your desired shape.
This resin is used for rapid production of fibreglass pools, yotts, tanks ANd other product that requires resistance to harsh environmental elements.
Polyester forms a truly impermeable surface which is chemically inert.
Trained and licenced technical operators can achieve a high degree of strength and overall marine grade durability.

WHEN INSTALLING MEMBRANE ON A BALCONY
MEMBRANE IS RETURNED TO THE TOP OF THE STEP ON THE INSIDE OF THE DOOR threshold TO PROVIDE AN UPTURN WITH THE DETAIL THAT CAN BE SEALED TO THE DOOR FRAME ONCE THE DOOR FRAME IS INSTALLED.
HOB TERMINATIONS BUILT WELL ABOVE THE DECK
ARE BEST REINFORCED WITH MULTIPLE LAYERS OF WATERPROOFING TO GIVE THE ULTIMATE WATER STOP ACROSS ENCLOSED BALCONIES
Waterproof flashings SEALED TO THE STRUCTURE OF DOOR FRAMES CAN BE USED TO PREVENT AND DIVERT WIND DRIVEN WATER INGRESS FROM ADJOINING CAVITY AREAS
