Metflex Car Park Decking Systems

 

The only high performance waterproofing system that fully matches the demanding requirements for car park decking and can be applied in double quick time

Metflex is a high performance, fast-track waterproofing system that protects concrete, timber, masonry and steel structures from deterioration by water and chloride ions.

Metflex 120 spray-applied protective coating membrane is designed as a water and chemical-resistant coating with added abrasion resistance.

It can be applied to virtually any surface, including horizontal and vertical, to form a tough abrasion resistant membrane that is durable enough to accommodate most normal movement contained within structures of all types.

Some of the key advantages of using the Metflex systems are:

  • Rapid application and curing — its quick curing properties allow it to be handled/walked upon in under 20 minutes.
  • 100% effective waterproofing — based on technically advanced products.
  • Site applied in thickness’ from 1 mm to 5 mm in one application
  • Heavy duty throughout — Full system applied to all areas, not just Ramps etc. will ensure long term protection.
  • Weather tolerant — applied in the widest range of climatic conditions and temperatures enabling all year round flexible programming.
  • Unsurpassed bond strength — greater cohesive and adhesive bond strength to the substrate is the key to the System’s durability.
  • Can be sprayed vertically as well as horizontally, making it ideal for those overhead applications.
  • Elasticity — tests of crack bridging at 2 mm achieved.
  • Rapid spray applied and cure — ideal system for fast track construction and short possession work.
  • Lightweight — minimises dead load when compared to mastic asphalt.
  • Ease of detailing and day works joints — seamless, liquid system provides ease of detailing and formation of day joints.
  • Easy to repair — damage repair can be carried out very effectively and quickly at all stages in the life of the system without any problems in terms of bond strength or time consuming preparatory work.
  • Unique 10 year independent insurance backed guarantee available.
  • Can be steam cleaned and degreased.
  • Long service life — with excellent resistance to ageing, UV, abrasion, weathering, de-icing salts, and chemical attack.
