TPO Single-Ply Membranes & Preparatory Materials
Polisystem membranes are the final synthesis of years of experience developed in the world of plastic materials, specifically with polyolefins for use in the waterproofing sector.
The polyolefins are derived from the polymerisation of unsaturated olefin hydrocarbons obtained from the refining of petroleum products. Polypropylene in its crystalline and amorphous form, which Polisystem modify using a patented technology and elastomers belong to this group of products. For several decades small quantities of polypropylene have been used in bituminous membranes to give a continuous structure.
Polisystem membranes are based on polyolefins; these provide all the specific characteristics, which give the products resistance to atmospheric agents, durability, and high mechanical performances at low temperatures (-40°C) and at high temperatures (+140°C).

The following items represent the standard range of Polisystem TPO Membranes for waterproofing applications.
The membranes can also be manufactured using alternative reinforcements in thicknesses of 1.2, 1.8, 2.0, 2.5, and 3.0 mm, to special order.
Polisystem TPO single-ply membranes have been certified by the British Board of Agrément to have a life expectancy in excess of 20 years.
