Roofs are the most exposed parts of any building structure. Sunshine, rainwater, temperature fluctuations and environmental pollution gradually affect roof surfaces leaving cracks in the structure leading to seepage of water into the roofing system, heat and deterioration of structural integrity. Roof leakage often keeps troubling many commercial, industrial and residential buildings as conventional waterproofing does not give long term solution.
It is imperative that the solution should not only stubbornly fight against water incursion but increase durability, reduce heat retention and add to the longevity of a more holistic structure in modern construction.
DRYFIKS™ ADV ROOFKOOL is a technically advanced solar reflective waterproof coating system meant to offer best terrace waterproofing, crack proofing and thermal performance. The coating creates an integral, elastic polymeric waterproof barrier which protects roofs from adverse weather and optimizes thermal efficiency.
Formulated with cutting-edge acrylic technology, DRYFIKS™ ADV ROOFKOOL is a durable, long-term waterproofing performance solution and good reflective ability that is perfectly suited as a preventive method for contemporary constructions.
Why Roof Waterproofing Is Essential?
One of the main causes of structural failure in buildings is water damage. Roof surfaces never have it easy:
- Heavy rainfall and water stagnation
- Extreme heat and UV exposure
- Temperature changes can expand or reverse the manipulation of the material
- Micro cracks in concrete
- Aging waterproofing systems
- Surface deterioration over time
Application Areas For Waterproofing In Construction
Roofs That Are Exposed
This is what DRYFIKS™ adv roofkool has been developed for; roofs which are most exposed to the elements, such as high rainfall and areas of water retention. DRYFIKS™ adv roofkool provides an integral elastic polymeric waterproofing membrane that prevents water ingress into the roofing system during extreme weather events. In addition, it protects against environmental contamination caused by atmospheric changes and temperature fluctuations, ensuring the long-term structural viability of the roof.
Residential Roof Terraces
DRYFIKS™ adv roofkool provides a technically sophisticated coating designed to give a complete solution for waterproofing and crack-proofing terrace roofs. This flexible coating bridges existing surface cracks that may otherwise permit water to ingress; precludes the formation of new cracks and provides an excellent and secure maintenance-free barrier from water leaks thus ensuring maximum comfort for those living in the house.
Industrial Roofs
For large industrial buildings, where conventional waterproofing solutions are often inadequate over the longer term, DRYFIKS™ adv roofkool is the ideal coating. No other roof coating can so aggressively prevent the ingress of water and degradation to the building due to continual exposure to adverse weather conditions. The long-lasting result of using this durable acrylic coating will strengthen the entire industrial structure, thus extending the usable life of the building significantly.
Commercial Structures:
ROOFKOOL's ability to reflect sunlight allows commercial buildings to take advantage of both waterproofing and energy efficiency benefits. Effectively reducing heat buildup on the roof as well as heat from entering the building leads to high thermal efficiency and ultimately dramatic energy savings.
Roof Renovations:
The DRYFIKS™ ADV ROOFKOOL system is an exceptional option for renovating existing rooftops that have been compromised due to solar and water exposure over time. It will seal aging roofing materials and provide a new, highly reflective, and protective surface; thus, creating a new roof for many more years. The DRYFIKS™ ADV ROOFKOOL system is simple to apply, one-component, and offers energy-efficient and professional-grade roofing.
New Structures Using Coatings
Coating was applied to the newly built roofing system to assist with preventing leaks from occurring on a newly constructed roof by providing a way for a future leak to occur before there is already an existing leak. Coating has been designed to allow for the flexibility necessary to allow flexibility created by climate changes of both ambient and structural temperature since it begins its use after the application of the product. See (FEMA Bulletins 27 and 59, August 1998 & 2002) for additional uses of this type of coating technology to aid in providing long term safety to the newly constructed buildings.
When waterproofing is ignored, water slowly seeps into concrete pores which what will leads to:
- Damp ceilings and interior leakage
- Rusting reinforcement steel
- Weak concrete bonding
- Paint peeling and fungus growth
- Increased maintenance costs
When moisture gets into a property, removing it can be difficult and costly. Thus, proactive waterproofing is always better than reactive repair work.
DRYFIKS™ ADV ROOFKOOL is essentially a preventive shield that protect structures before considerable damage starts.
What is DRYFIKS™ ADV ROOFKOOL?
DRYFIKS ADV ROOFKOOL is an ultra-high build liquid waterproofing membrane or solar reflective roof coating & waterproofing for terrace applications.
A 3-layer waterproofing system that produces an excellent waterproofing shield over roof substrates. Properly applied, it creates a continuous unbroken membrane that is impermeable to moisture penetration, bridges cracks in the substrate as well as sun heat.
Performance can also be improved for large roof areas by using fibre mesh between coats.
Key characteristics include:
- Liquid-applied waterproof membrane
- Solar reflective coating
- Crack-bridging flexibility
- Weather-resistant protection
- Long-lasting durability
Key Benefits
Superior Waterproofing Protection
Related Product DRYFIKS™ ADV ROOFKOOL Fences Water penetration is prevented by creating a continuous waterproof layer that effectively seals concrete pores and surface cracks.
Improved Concrete Durability
Coatings help boost the lifespan of concrete structures by preventing water absorption and eventual long-term degradation.
Reduced Porosity in Concrete
It prevents structural failure and surface deterioration by keeping moisture from penetrating concrete surfaces
Enhanced Workability
Workable and Easy– easy to apply with compatible system component for even distribution.
Improved Setting and Strength
Increases compressive strength and bonding performance to help keep the structure stable.
Crack Reduction
Decreases shrinkage cracking due to, thermal expansion, thermal contraction and exposure weather
Increased Cohesiveness
Cohesiveness enhanced within concrete surfaces consequently reducing tendency towards corrosion of reinforcement steel.
Solar Reflective Performance
Mirrors sunlight to decrease roof surface temperature, thereby increasing comfort indoors.
Long-Term Preventive Protection
Unlike coatings or paints that remain temporary – ADV ROOFKOOL is a permanent preventive waterproofing coating.
Preventive waterproofing keeps your home dry
Dampness is such an insidious systemic disease. This builds up over time, and it seeps into decaying building materials and eats the insides of structures out.
There are conventional waterproofing options such as paint or surface treatment that can give a temporary barrier. These layers split, crack or delaminate over time as the weather wears on them.
Spending on yet another cycle of repainting, plaster repairs turn out dear and cumbersome.
DRYFIKS™ ADV ROOFKOOL works differently.
It does not work as just a coat but creates a waterproof shield that:
Prevents from infiltrating its source
Maintains breathability of the substrate
Protects reinforcement steel from corrosion
Preserves structural strength
Extends building lifespan
With, preventive waterproofing you will not have to worry about costly maintenance anytime soon.
