To secure the membranes against wind uplift, fully adhering is commonly used in
countries where weather conditions favour installation.

Protan Adhered Roofing System 

For Adhered Roofing Systems, Protan has developed the Protan GX fleece - backed membrane. Adhered roofing systems are traditionally used where

  • penetration of the substrate is undesirable
  • perforation of the vapour control layer is prohibited (e.g. buildings with high level of humidity like swimming pools)
  • mechanical attachment is difficult or impossible, (e.g. woodwool decks)
  • higher than normal wind up lift resistance is required

Normally, perimeters and details will be mechanically attached to enhance wind resistance in sensitive areas (corners and edges). In combination with other systems, detailing may be fully adhered.
