Polymer Modified Bituminous Waterproofing System
With the advancement in technology, the bio degradable Hessian reinforced tarfelt has been replaced by non-bio-degradable material such as non woven polyester or fibre glass mat. The change of reinforcement is made possible along with the change in the base material. APP (Atactic Polypropylene) is a polymer compatible with the base material bitumen. The polymerization improves certain aspects of the physicals parameters of the base material to counter extreme service conditions.
Buildtech Product I Pvt Ltd., an ISO 9001 accredited company pioneer in the field of construction chemicals and solutions has recently introduced state-of-the-art technology based polymer modified bituminous membrane waterproofing system in the sub continent for complete solution for waterproofing. These membranes are time tested and are being used all over the world as the ultimate solution to waterproofing. Even in India these products were introduced in late nineties and are getting adopted every day in various new projects in a big way.
In addition to the Acrylic/Latex based cementitious polymeric products already available with Buildtech Products I Pvt Ltd., the company also offers a wide range of membrane waterproofing system based on both APP (Atactic Polypropylene) and SBS (Styrene Butadiene Styrene).APP is a plastomer whereas SBS is an elastomer. This chemical difference manifests itself physically in much greater elasticity in the case of SBS based modifies bitumen, with more nearly uniform properties through wider temperature range e.g greater flexibility at low temperature. APP modified membrane are generally stronger and stiffer than SBS modified which gives greater resistance at higher temperature. For country like India, APP modified has been found to be suitable for extreme conditions.
The major products that have been introduced in the Indian market, preferably the northern region are:
Through continuous improvement in the quality of the products, Buildtech Products are able to gain acclamation from various users/clients from all over the country.Buildtech Products firmly believes in quality, customer's satisfaction for a long term relationship.
Company has a network of dealers, distributors and applicators operating at all major cities. The company also helps in designing system and specifications required for a specific site or structure.
