Technical Specifications

  • Prepare installation procedure
  • Screen or vapour barrier
  • Lay down STIFERITE’S Class B panel
    (alternative: STIFERITE’S Class S)
  • Lay down two layers of mantle s, the first  made-up of a bituminous plastomeric polymer 4mm thick, reinforced in TNT with stabilized continuous string polyester. The second layer of bituminous waterproofing with Slate Chips and polyester fibre reinforcement, maximum weight ≥ 4 kg/m². 
Instructions and Guidelines
The Slate Chips’ layer protects the waterproofing mantle from weather conditions and reduces the maintenance schedule to a minimum.
Always use high quality products and aim for a perfect installation of the entire “package”.
The complementary products are indicated only as a good level of quality standard.

The installation can be made in several methods: Using adhesives or single-component polyurethane foam in a can, panels laid over a continuous and uniform coating of hot bitumen,  laid on to a torched liquefied bitumen vapour barrier, or mechanically fixed with anchors.
