Elastomeric Waterproof Membrane Systems With Outstanding Elongation, Resistance to Ponded Water and Environmental Gases.

• Watertight Integrity

Protecting a building against the elements is the
key to retaining its long term structural
integrity, as the ingress of aggressive
atmospheric chemicals, salts and water make
structures vulnerable to deterioration. Utilising
engineered waterproofing systems to prevent the
ingress of atmospheric chemicals optimises a
buildings structural performance and its ability
to stand resilient to the environment.

Selecting the right system is about more than
achieving durability. You need a high quality,
flexible solution that will reduce whole-life
costs and can be installed with a minimum of
downtime. Astec waterproofing membrane systems
are based around unique internally plasticized
membrane technology, available as fast setting
single component materials for spray or hand
application. They include specific solutions for
concrete and ply roofing, podium decks and
balconies.

• Unusual Roofing Shapes

Astec Waterproofing Systems afford architectural
roofing shapes of any design. As in a geodesic
dome that is cement clad, the structure can be
made watertight without the need for conventional
mechanical flashings and provides a system that
is cost effective to install, easily maintained
and is aesthetically pleasing. Astec
waterproofing systems can be over-coated with
Astec Elastic Texture coatings to provide the
final decorative appeal that will blend with any
environment.

• Seamless Durability

Astec waterproofing systems are liquid-applied,
fully adhered seamless membranes that are formed
in situ during new construction or retrofit, of
concrete / timber ply decks, degraded box
guttering or over existing weathered membranes.
The system will stop the transmission of ponded
bulk water thus eliminating moisture accumulation
in the substrate.

• Low Temperature Flexibility

Astec membranes possess low temperature
flexibility, down to -30 C which makes them
resistant to low temperature cracks in extreme
weather, and assures positive adhesion,
resilience to hailstone impact, and long-term
crack free integrity.

• Resists U.V. Degradation

Durable, flexible, heat reflective elastomeric
membranes resist UV degradation, ponded water and
many industrial chemical environments and because
they remain cool will last up to four times
longer than conventional waterproofing.

• Remains Cool-Even in Dark Colours

Most importantly, no more excessive heat build up
in the concrete slab, that can take days to cool
down once absorbed. Astec Energy Star infrared
heat reflective coating systems reflect fully 50
of solar heat by infrared reflection. Even in
darks colours, their low solar absorbance and
high emittance will significantly reduce absorbed
heat in roofing substrates.
