26 REINFORCED BITUMEN MEMBRANE SYSTEMS ENGINEERED FOR A MODERN WORLD
System accessories (continued)
Protectoboard
A protection and roof recovery board
fabricated with a bituminous core sandwiched
between two layers of non-woven glass fibre
reinforcement. Offering durable and reliable
performance, and is fully compatible with a
range of bituminous and non-bituminous
waterproofing systems.
Protectoboard is ideal for isolating and
preparing the surface of existing roofing
systems ready for the preparation of new
bituminous roofing membranes, compatible
polymeric membranes and liquid
waterproofing systems.
Features and benefits
• Use for existing surface preparation or
finished waterproofing protection
• Robust and dimensionally stable
• 3.2mm thick (standard) and 12.5mm thick
(by special order)
• Mechanically fixed or bonded in
bitumen/PU adhesive
• Easily cut and formed on site
• Easily stored, requiring minimum storage
space
• Can directly receive torch applied, bitumen
bonded or self-adhesive roof membranes
• Ideal for use with IKO's range of torch-on
products.
IKOrail Guardrail Systems
Barriers may be required to protect operatives
from risk of falling from a roof and to retain
objects and tools. Guardrails can either be
fixed to a roof permanently or can be nonpenetrative
in the form of free-standing with
the use of a counter weight.
IKOrail Guardrail Systems are free-standing
barriers with up to 2m spacing between
stanchions. They conform to the EN ISO
14122-3 standard and do not require any
specific maintenance.
These systems are recommended when fixing
to the parapet or the roof surface is not an
option and are therefore popular within
renovation projects. The free-standing
guardrail is installed directly on the walkway,
thus eliminating any problems linked to
restoring waterproofing after piercing the
roof membrane.
IKOflash
IKOflash is a lead free flashing which can be
used in areas where traditional lead flashing
would be used such as chimney and
abutment flashings, around rooflights and
pitched valley linings.
IKOflash is made from a modified
polyethylene compound with an integral
aluminium mesh reinforcement, enabling the
product to be worked and formed in the
same way as lead. The product is faced with
a fine grey mineral.
Features and benefits
• Can be worked and formed in the same
way as lead
• Available in 6m & 12m sizes
• Significantly lighter than lead flashing
making it easier to handle
• Rapid installation
• Cost effective, with no scrap or re-sale
value
• Non toxic material.
IKO D-marc Roof Demarcation System
IKO D-marc 105 is a new wind-resistant
demarcation system for flat rooftops.
Applications may be for the purpose of
preventing access to hazards during regular
rooftop maintenance or to provide safe
access across the roof.
Wherever roof access is required, designers
are tasked with creating a safe route which
should be identified by a demarcation system.
Traditional demarcation systems on rooftop
applications suffer from instability and wind
uplift causing them to fly off roofs at wind
speeds as low as 50 mph.
D-marc 105 has been wind tunnel tested on
single ply, bituminous and concrete roof
surfaces, resisting wind speeds in excess of
105 mph.
