Roof waterproofing system
The FATRAFOL roof waterproofing system is a proven solution for waterproofing flat and pitched roofs. Membranes are made of plasticised PVC or thermoplastic polyolefins (TPO). They resist UV radiation, contributing to long-term roof protection.
Mechanically fastened roof
Mechanical fastening of waterproofing coatings is the most common fastening system. It is characterised by simple and quick installation.
It is typical for lightweight roof structures with a load-bearing layer of trapezoidal sheet metal, but it is also used on other common substrates such as concrete and wood.
Fastening is done into the load-bearing layer of the roof envelope, the so-called fastening layer.

Adhered roof
Bonding FATRAFOL membranes to the substrate is an alternative to mechanical fastening or ballasting.
It is particularly justified in cases where the substrate cannot be anchored for various reasons.
The reasons may be functional, e.g. due to the operation inside the building or the type or quality of the substrate, but also aesthetic, e.g. to eliminate visible fasteners on the underside of the fastening layer, etc.

Gravel ballasted roof
Ballasting as a method of fastening waterproofing is mainly used on smaller roofs with a concrete substrate, often on residential and public buildings.
The ballast layer can be purely static (e.g. gravel) or also serve as a usable surface – typically paving, decking or vegetation assembly.
Balcony
Serves simultaneously as waterproofing and a wear surface.
Represents an economical alternative to traditional balcony surfaces.
Green roof
They extend the lifespan of the roof envelope by protecting it from UV radiation, weather effects, high temperatures and mechanical damage.
A green roof also has a positive effect on the indoor environment of buildings. Vegetation prevents high summer temperatures from penetrating into the interior, maintains balanced conditions and regulates temperature fluctuations.

Roof waterproofing system TPO
FATRAFOL – TPO waterproofing membranes are produced from modified polyolefins.
They are characterised by high strength and dimensional stability.
The membranes contain no plasticisers, so they retain their performance properties over the years.
They are also more suitable for use at low temperatures, even temperatures well below freezing.
