Recommended uses

Exposed flat roofs, with no heavy protection

Industrial sheds and large-footprint warehouses

Central and northern Chile: high UV, long summers

Refurbishment over existing bituminous roofing

Not for buried foundations or where structural movement is expected: that calls for SBS

Torch-welded lap, close-up of the bitumen bead

APP or SBS: they are not the same

Choosing the wrong polymer costs you the whole roof. If you have doubts about the specification, we review it before quoting.

APP Plastomeric polymer

Resists heat and UV, and stays stable at high temperature. For exposed roofs and hot climates.

The manufacturer's name is misleading: SIM Standart Insulation makes bituminous waterproofing, not thermal insulation.
