BauderTHERM 'Stripes'
Reinforced bitumen membrane overlay waterproofing
BauderTHERM Stripes
Specifically for refurbishment projects when the thermal properties of the roof are satisfactory. The installation has two layers of membrane at all detailing and follows Safe2Torch guidelines.
When to specify
For refurbishment projects where the existing bitumen-based waterproofing is reaching the end of its serviceable life but is still essentially watertight. If insulation exists it should still be thermally suitable, free from moisture contamination or degradation.
The system uses the BauderTHERM SL 500 membrane with thermally activated SBS elastomeric bitumen resin set in a ‘stripes’ bonding pattern to give an approximate 50% bond to the existing waterproofing.
Plus points
- The system features a single membrane layer on the roof field area and two layers at all detailing
- Bauder expects the existing roof to benefit from an extension to its service life of >15 years
- 5.2mm thick, torch-bonded elastomeric bitumen membrane
- ‘Stripes’ pattern of bitumen on the underside reduces the likelihood of inter-layer blistering after installation
- Guarantee options to fulfil cover requirements for the project

Additional information
Flame-free detailing methods
Our flame-free detail design specifically delivers secure safe application techniques in the vicinity of combustible construction materials located on, or connected to, the roof. This includes timber substrates or upstands; abutments to cladding, roof tiles, slates or thatch; or debris such as dry leaf material that is at risk of ignition. The application methods meet NFRC Guidance Document 'Safe2Torch'
Installation and maintenance
The quality and experience of the installing operative is paramount to ensuring a successful project. Bauder Approved Contractors are the only people fully trained and certified to install our products. They provide the necessary experience that our exceptional guarantee demands.
