Bauderflex System

Our Bauderflex system offers an alternative to the specifier on a tighter budget as it uses thinner elastomeric bitumen membranes compared to BTRS and BTRS PLUS.

Bauderflex system achieves a CCPI mark which recognises that any claims made about it have been independently assessed across 11 clauses, providing greater clarity by offering improved product information. This gives specifiers confidence in the knowledge that they will have unambiguous information when deciding which of our systems is best for their new build or refurbishment project. 

Enhance with:
■ Green roofs   ■ Blue roofs   ■ Solar PV   ■ Biosolar PV

When to specify...

Bauderflex is a fully bonded system suitable for new build and refurbishment projects for warm or inverted roof construction with a choice of insulations; also used as a two-layer system to overlay an existing roof that is thermally reliable and still meets current standards. The system uses the BauderFLEX K4E 4.2mm cap sheet and comes in three mineral colour finishes. There is a selection of underlayers and AVCLs to suit specific project requirements and where a green roof is required the BauderPLANT E 42 is incorporated to form the Bauderflex Green Roof System.

Approvals, certification and guarantee

■□ Comprehensive range of guarantee packages to fulfil cover requirements for the project (dependant on system/product
      selection). For more information contact our technical department for a sample guarantee outlining cover level, terms
      and conditions.
■□ CCPI Verification Number 0007700012/1025 for Bauderflex and Bauderflex Green Roof System.
■□ BBA certification for Bauderflex waterproofing and Bauderflex Green Roof Systems.
■□ BS EN 13707 - Reinforced Bitumen Membrane Sheets Compliant.
■□ Meets current Building Regulations for fire performance and our BBA certificate states, “the systems, when
      used in a suitable specification, will enable a roof to be unrestricted under the Building Regulations”,
 which
      confirms they are appropriate for use on any part of a roof.

Bauder torch-free detailing methods 

Safe2Torch industry initiativeOur torch-free detail design specifically delivers secure safe application techniques in the vicinity of combustible construction materials located on, or connected to, the roof such as timber substrates or upstands; abutments to cladding, roof tiles, slates or thatch; or even debris such as dry leaf material that is at risk from ignition. The application methods meet NFRC Guidance Document 'Safe2Torch'.
