Suitable Surfaces
All boards should be resistant to moisture but not sealed with adhesive repellent waxes or other nonabsorbent systems. If in doubt a small test area should be laid.
Certain roof surfaces may not be suitable for use with this adhesive, for example, non-porous such as metal or existing GRP, for these surfaces Contact Bonding Adhesive may be a more suitable alternative.

The BBA carries out assessment, testing, approval and certification of products and systems for the construction industry against national requirements, internationally recognised standards or other relevant technical specifications, reviewed and reissued every 3 years.
Fire Ratings
The ClassicBond system is also fire rated, the 1.2mm EPDM has a fire rating of EXT.F.AB and the 1.5mm EPDM membrane is fire rated to EXT.F.AA. Fire rating is carried out on a variety of deck surfaces and it is important to seek the certificate that relates most accurately to your roof structure.
What Temperatures Can A Rubber Roof Be Installed In?
We recommend a minimum temperature of 5 degrees C for EPDM installation. This is due the the WBA adhesive being water based and lower temperatures may cause the adhesive to freeze over and fail.
