AQUAZIP BARRIER line, the new product line designed for flat roofing.
Fassa Bortolo is pursuing a path aimed at integrating increasing attention to environmental sustainability into its activities: this attention to the environment also takes the form of design solutions and high-performance products intended to contribute to the performance of buildings and their energy efficiency.
In this context, the Aquazip Barrier Line membranes used to waterproof flat roofs, with their reflectance and emissivity characteristics, can contribute to indoor comfort, especially in summer, and to limiting the energy required for any cooling, as well as to mitigating the heat island effect that can affect urban areas.
Thanks to the special colour and finish characteristics of the resulting roof coverings, the use of Aquazip Barrier Line products on flat roofs can help limit roof surface temperatures and the heat transferred to the spaces below, while also reducing thermal stresses on the roof assembly.
AQUAZIP BARRIER PRIMER, AQUAZIP BARRIER and AQUAZIP BARRIER SRI products can also be used in the encapsulation system for asbestos-cement roofing, helping to protect and preserve the treated surfaces.
AQUAZIP BARRIER SYSTEM
AQUAZIP BARRIER SYSTEM is suitable for the constructing coatings for permanent encapsulation of asbestos cement, according to type A, B and C defined by the Italian leg. M. of 20 August 1999. The cycle has been declared compliant with the regulatory requirements following laboratory tests carried out by authorised bodies.
The cycle comprises the following certified quality products:
– AQUAZIP BARRIER PRIMER: solvent-based synthetic resin adhesion promoter, applicable by roller or brush;
– AQUAZIP BARRIER: ready-to-use elastic waterproofing membrane, suitable for application by spray, roller and brush, available for this application in the grey version (GREY);
– AQUAZIP BARRIER SRI: ready-to-use elastic waterproofing membrane, with high solar reflectance, suitable for application by spray, roller and brush;
The permanent encapsulation work represents an effective and sustainable solution that guarantee long-lasting protection with low operating costs and quick application. The activity can be carried out without compromising the usability of the building with straightforward application procedures. The system obtained in this way prevents the generation of contaminated waste, minimising exposure to risks for workers and the environment.
