3. FR-BGM permits direct application of torch on felt to the insulation surface.
4. Integrates with an extensive range of bituminous roofing systems.

Roof Design

The 60mm Unilin Insulation Boards are compatible with numerous bitumen-based waterproofing systems. These typically employ a BS EN 13707:2013 type 3G perforated base layer or proprietary roof waterproofing solutions. Position the fleece side facing upward during installation. Full bonding represents an alternative approach. Refer to BS 8217 guidance for managing moisture and condensation in reinforced bitumen membrane roofing applications.

Falls

Flat roof design must incorporate adequate fall to prevent water pooling.

Roof Loading

The 60mm Unilin FR/BGM boards suit roof decks with minimal foot traffic and infrequent maintenance requirements. Where regular pedestrian access occurs, install protective walkways. Following roof completion, lay protective boarding if additional site work is anticipated. This protects the roofing system's structural integrity.

Roof Finish

Built-up roofing systems require finishing with an appropriate reflective layer such as stone chippings. Consult the system manufacturer for specific recommendations.

Fire Performance

Fire rating, determined by EN 13501-5 and BS 476 Part 3 'External Fire Exposure Roof Test' assessment, depends on the selected waterproofing system.

Vapour Control Layer

Prime roof decks before applying hot bitumen for vapour control layer bonding. Consult BS 8217 for vapour control layer application procedures. Extend the VCL beyond the insulation and seal against the parapet wall.
