Product Introduction
Bitumen, or asphalt as it is commonly known, is a standout material in the construction industry, recognized for its dense, black, and highly viscous characteristics sourced from petroleum. This exceptional waterproofing agent is lauded for its unmatched performance, rendering it indispensable for a wide array of construction needs. Bituminous membranes are the epitome of comprehensive waterproofing solutions, ideal for roofs, basements, and underground structures, extending their prowess to bridges and diverse constructions. They offer two distinguished application techniques for ultimate versatility.
The first method is the renowned Torch-on application, and the second is the innovative Self-adhesive approach.
Torch-on bituminous membranes are your unwavering solution across any weather conditions, offering remarkable versatility and ease. When CHENHUA membranes are meticulously applied, they become a seamless, watertight fortress, intimately bonded to the surface ensuring ultimate protection.

Torch Down Bitumen Waterproof Membranes are the definitive choice for unrivaled waterproofing and seepage resistance across an extensive range of building grades. Ideal for both exposed and concealed applications, these membranes excel in safeguarding flat roofs, sloped roofs, subterranean areas, tunnels, bridges, parking lots, reservoirs, and much more.
Application method:
1. Substrate:
Ensure that the substrate is immaculately clean, dry, and devoid of any impurities, setting the stage for flawless application.
All dust, along with any loose and friable materials, must be meticulously removed.
Blowholes and voids should be fully exposed and skillfully repaired thereafter.
2. Primer:
Before you lay down the membrane, apply primer with precision. Clean the substrate using a dust catcher or blower, then coat it with a treatment primer to enhance waterproofing, ensuring effective dust consolidation and superior adhesion.
3. Membrane placement:
*Unroll the torch-on membrane with precision, aligning it accurately before commencing the torching or bonding process.
*Lay each membrane in parallel, ensuring they are staggered by at least 1 meter to avoid coinciding joints for optimal stability and integrity.
*Alternating the end-to-end overlaps is crucial, avoiding alignment along a single line to enhance structural integrity.
*Always initiate at the lowest slope height, prioritizing drains, downpipes, and other crucial areas.
*During the torching process, simultaneously heat both the membrane and substrate, concentrating on the roll and overlapping areas to secure a robust bond.
*Meticulously weld overlaps to ensure a clean trickle of melted mixture, approximately 1 cm wide, along the overlap line for a flawless finish.
4.Employ a roller to firmly compress the membrane surface, guaranteeing an impeccable adhesion that withstands the test of time.
Attention:
1. The substrate must be dry and pristine. Avoid working on rainy or snowy days for optimal results.
2. Refrain from working in winds stronger than grade 5 to ensure safety and quality.
3. Construction should not proceed if the temperature falls below 5°C.
4. In the event of rain or snow during construction, protective measures for the laid membrane are essential to preserve quality.
5. All personnel must wear designated safety uniforms, and appropriate fire control equipment is mandatory during installation.

Packing and shipping:
1. Store membranes in a dry, well-ventilated environment to maintain quality.
2. Different types of membranes should be stored separately to prevent cross-contamination.
3. Under optimal conditions, the storage duration is one year from the production date.
4. Ensure the longevity and quality of our membrane rolls by storing them in an upright position during transportation. These rolls should be kept under cover, shielded from sunlight and adverse weather conditions, such as rain, to maintain their pristine condition and performance.

1) What sizes are most popular for the Torch-on bitumen membrane?
-The preferred dimensions are 3mm x 1m x 10m, featuring a versatile top layer of either PE or sand granules. This size is celebrated for providing exceptional adaptability and remarkable performance across diverse applications.
-We offer a robust option with dimensions of 4mm thickness x 1m width x 10m length. This variant is available with a finish of PE film or sand granules on top, catering to a variety of installation preferences.
2) What are the key differences between SBS and APP modifiers?
-Both SBS and APP are sophisticated modifiers that significantly elevate the performance of our membranes. SBS is particularly advantageous for its superior ability to enhance the cold resistance of waterproof membranes, making it ideal for frigid environments. On the other hand, APP excels at augmenting heat resistance. Despite their similar exterior, these modifiers are uniquely tailored to address separate environmental challenges efficiently.
3) Do you offer OEM services?
-Indeed! We are thrilled to extend our extensive OEM services to you, welcoming collaboration at your convenience to meet your custom needs.
