REGUM Structural Protection Mats are used to protect buildings and structures from mechanical damage. They can be laid quickly and easily over sensitive building materials to provide a protecting and separating layer. The elastic sheets adapt optimally to the shape of uneven substrates.
REGUM Structural Protection Mats
Flat roofs are one of the most common structural features of urban residential and commercial buildings. Technological and social developments have now rendered the formerly drab flat roof surfaces passé. Today's designs include elaborate roof gardens, climate-friendly green roofs or sustainable photovoltaic systems. During the construction phase and long after completion of the work, sensitive structural parts of the roof must be protected from mechanical damage. In the case of flat roofs, it is usually a question of protecting the high-quality sealing membranes, synthetic films and insulation materials. By using durable structural protection mats, damage to the roof systems and the resulting structural damage caused by penetrating moisture can be effectively prevented. The elastic REGUM Structural Protection Mats are made of polyurethane-bonded, recycled granulated rubber and have proven themselves successfully in these applications over many years. The user can choose between sheets or panels in various dimensions and thicknesses depending on the expected loads.
REGUM Structural Protection Mats are made of polyurethane-bonded granulated rubber and are available in the form of panels in various sizes or as sheets.
Your advantages
Reliable protection against mechanical damage
Chemical resistance
Rot-proof, durable and resistant to ageing
Quick and easy installation
General
In addition to providing mechanical protection, REGUM structural protection mats and sheets also have a number of other properties: they are permeable to water, bitumen-compatible, rot-proof and chemically compatible with various construction materials and substances with which they come into contact. However, plasticiser-sensitive plastics must be separated from the structural protection mats by a separate protective layer. For example, a non-woven fabric is placed between the protection mat and the waterproofing of a flat roof.
Application
Structural protection mats are used in structural and civil engineering as a protecting and separating layer under gravel fill, crushed stone layers, paving slabs, soil, greenery, planters, concrete components, photovoltaic systems and other superstructures on flat roofs, parking decks, underground garages, basements, balconies, patios, green roofs and in tunnel construction. They also protect the structure or the waterproofing layer during the construction phase, when construction workers have to walk on the roof waterproofing, for example. Often, the mats also form part of the composite system in green roofs.
