What's The Biggest Size EPDM Roofing Sheet I Can Buy?

ClassicBond® 


The biggest sheet sizes available come from our ClassicBond® EPDM range, making it a great option for larger roofs. These sheets can be supplied in one continuous sheet up to 15.25 metres x 30.5 metres in the 1.2mm thick membrane and 15.25 metres x 15.25 metres in the 1.5mm thick membrane. These days, the joining technology of all of our systems is as strong as the membrane itself so in certain applications, several sheets joined together onsite can prove more practical than struggling with a huge sheet of rubber.

 

Typical Weights: 1.5kg/square metre (for 1.2mm thick ClassicBond) & 2kg/square metre (for 1.5mm thick ClassicBond).

Resitrix® & ClassicBond Pro™


The RESITRIX® and ClassicBond™ systems come in standard roll sizes and are designed to be joined on site. Both of these systems are re-inforced which makes them the preferred choice for extremely large roofs, especially those that are over 100m2.  

Typical Weights:

RESITRIX® 1m x 10m roll = 30kg / roll 
ClassicBond™ 1.52m x 12.20m = 32kg / roll

SkyGuard®


Skyguard® is generally a lighter product in weight compared to our other systems due to the product being 1.0mm thick. This product is made with sheds and outbuildings in mind and is an attractive alternative to felt. This membrane can be supplied in one continuous sheet up to 5.0m x 30.5m (16ft x 100ft).

Typical Weights: 1.3kg/square metre 

What are the pros and cons of ClassicBond Pro?

Can EPDM Sheets Be Joined?

Can ClassicBond EPDM be joined?

Classicbond EPDM Membranes can be easily joined using either the 3" Seam Tape or some 6" Cover Tape. A Primer must be used when joining two sheets as the self-adhesive tapes will only adhere to a primed surface. Please see our video installation guide to see how this is done using the 3" Seam Tape.

Can Resitrix Sheets be joined?

Yes! The membrane can be joined and sealed by using a Hot Air Gun with a flat nozzle and Seam Roller to create a heat weld. It is easy to tell if a good weld has been formed as there will be a bleed on the welded edge. 

Can ClassicBond Pro EPDM be Joined?

Yes, ClassicBond Pro Membranes have a pre-applied Seam Tape applied to one side; this makes joining the membrane quick and more effective.

Pre-applied Seam Tape (PST) improves seaming productivity by nearly 75% and addresses the roofing industry’s biggest challenge —the shortage of skilled labour. This means completing projects faster, improving the ability to get buildings “in the dry” in less time and minimising business disruption. Delivering 30% greater peel strength and 32% greater shear strength than traditionally applied seams.
