This self-adhesive bituminous membrane with an aluminium foil laminate and glass fibre reinforcement is targeted at Flex-R Specialist Registered Installer customers.
This additional layer in the construction of a flat roof is required to prevent interstitial condensation and potential moisture damage, which can lead to mould and even structural damage. The product allows a flame-free, cold application process. It is puncture-resistant and self-adhesive, and the range includes a specialised primer to improve adhesion on porous or vertical surfaces.
The RubberBond AVCL features an upper aluminium surface coated with polyester, which protects against alkalis and provides an ideal bonding surface for polyurethane insulation adhesives. Due to its foil laminate, it offers high vapour resistance, so is suitable for use in high-humidity environments such as swimming pools, sports halls, bathrooms, and kitchens.
The AVCL is compatible with several common substrates, including concrete, plywood, OSB, and metal decks. It can also withstand foot traffic during the installation process. It is available in 22-metre rolls, each measuring 915 mm in width. More details can be found in their new product brochure here
