Technologies
Over the years, SOPREMA has developed and marketed the best technologies in the industry, with the constant objective of making high-quality products.
SBSSOPREMA has been mastering SBS-modified bitumen technology since 1975. SBS products offer peace of mind thanks to their excellent durability and resistance to severe weather conditions. They can be installed using various application methods as well. SBS technology is also very versatile. It can be used to waterproof roofs, walls, foundations, bridges, and parking lots.
DUO SELVEDGEFor safer installation, a wide variety of membranes are equipped with DUO SELVEDGE, a unique technology developed by SOPREMA and patented in 2004. The first centimetres of DUO SELVEDGE are self-adhesive to protect the components under the base sheet membrane from the flame. Then the rest can be safely hot-welded or sealed using hot air.
PMMAThis range of cold-liquid-applied roofing and waterproofing membranes is based on methacrylate chemistry. PMMA offers ultra-high-performant, flexible, seamless, reinforced systems with fast curing times that can accommodate tight construction schedules.
PUThis line of cold-liquid-applied membranes is based on polyurethane (PU) chemistry. PU offers robust, flexible, seamless systems ideal for protecting concrete structures against corrosion and traffic.
POLYISOCYANURATEA high-performance insulation technology (closed-cell hydrophobic foam), it has multiple applications that include roof insulation.
STONE WOOLA natural product, it uses recycled materials like slag and natural materials, such as basalt rock. It is very durable and possesses stable insulating values in cold climates.
