ONDULINE uses Bitumen as roofing material because of its excellent waterproofing performance and is an expert in bitume roofing solutions. Why bitumen?
The bitumen is naturally waterproof and insoluble in water which is why it has been used since the beginning of human civilization to protect the roofs and boats from water.
The bitumen is a thermoplastic material, which means that it is liquid at high temperature (>150°C) and solid at ambient temperature. It is an interesting property to process and can be used for industrial purposes, as well as on roads or roofs. Bitumen is also a viscoelastic material, which means that it has the capacity to absorb sound by transforming vibration into heat.
That’s why bitumen is also used as a heavy mass around car engines and in washing machines… as a sound proof material.
BITULINE membranes can be installed on pitched – even low pitched roofs and on flat roofs to create green roofs for example
The installation is made by a professional: the membranes are torch on together by fusion welding. Once applied, this welding ensures that your roof is protected from leaking for many years.
Depending on your needs and your project, we have a range of high-performance membranes for the roofing with coloured finishes, specific membranes for green roofs or for tropical areas.
You can use bitumen roof shingles. You have of course different sizes of shingles, depending on the type and the size of your project.
Used in roof shingles, bitumen is: extremely resistant to high temperatures or cold temperatures, lightweight, easy to carry and to install. It is also available in different colors
You can use it on any type of surface with a 15° to 85° pitch. You can use it for your own house, your garden shed, or bigger buildings projects.
