BITUMINOUS COATING
Bitumen Membrane
Bitumen Membrane is an advanced waterproofing solution composed of bitumen and polymer additives such as Atactic Polypropylene (APP), Styrene-Butadiene-Styrene (SBS), and fiberglass. The composition of bitumen membrane work together that offers exceptional waterproofing and heat resistance. Bitumen Membrane is commonly referred to as a Waterproofing Membrane, it serves a pivotal role in protecting structures from moisture-related damage. The bitumen membrane sheet is designed as a thin layer that can easily adhere to surfaces, effectively covering cracks and providing a barrier against environmental elements. With its tear-resistant, elastic, strong, and flexible properties, Bitumen Membrane ensures superior resistance to adverse weather conditions, making it an essential choice in the construction and roofing industry.

PROPERTIES
- Weather-Proof:
Bitumen Membrane resists rain, snow, and UV radiation, ensuring functionality in extreme conditions. This helps in prolong the lifespan of roofs and prevent moisture infiltration.
2. Corrosion resistance:
The Waterproof Membrane’s resistance to corrosive chemicals and pollutants helps maintain structural integrity. This is crucial in urban and coastal environments where exposure to these elements is prevalent.
The strong adhesion of Bitumen Membrane creates a secure waterproof barrier on various substrates such masonry, concrete and terrace. This seamless bond effectively prevents water penetration.
Bitumen Membrane is designed for longevity withstands wear and harsh weather, reducing the need for repairs and maintenance. Its durability offers reliable protection for roofs and foundations.
Bitumen Membrane’s flexibility lets it to adapt to structural movements without compromising waterproofing. This is essential for maintaining integrity in fluctuating temperatures.
With strong puncture resistance, the membrane sheet protects against physical damage from debris. This rigidity ensures the continued effectiveness of the waterproofing system.
Bitumen Membrane is lightweight and easy to install, simplifying the application process. Various methods of application save time and reduce labour costs, leading to a high-quality finish.
APPLICATIONS OF BITUMEN ENAMEL PIPE COATING
Bitumen Enamel is widely used for coating pipes to shield them from corrosion and contaminants such as oil, moisture, and dust. It is ideal for both onshore and offshore pipelines, casing pipes, and road bores.
VERSATILITY
Bitumen Enamel is widely used for coating pipes to shield them from corrosion and contaminants such as oil, moisture, and dust. It is ideal for both onshore and offshore pipelines, casing pipes, and road bores.
APPLICATION PROCESS
The Bitumen Enamel Coating, made from oil-based oxidized bitumen, is applied to steel pipes after a synthetic primer at a temperature of 215–230°C.
