Advantages of ODE Luna Membrane
Climate-Specific Options
APP- and SBS-modified alternatives enable reliable performance under various weather conditions.
High Mechanical Strength
Polyester-reinforced models provide excellent resistance to impact, tearing, and mechanical stress.
Long-Term Protection
Resistant to UV radiation and environmental effects, ensuring reliable waterproofing for many years.
Wide Range of Applications
Suitable for numerous building components, from foundations to roofs.
Easy Installation
Supplied in rolls and quickly installed using torch-on application methods.
Installation Process
1. Surface Preparation
The concrete substrate is cleaned and primed with a suitable bituminous primer.
2. Membrane Installation
The membrane rolls are laid starting from the lowest point of the surface, leaving overlaps of approximately 10–15 cm.
3. Welding Process
The overlap joints are heated and bonded using a propane torch. If required, a protective concrete layer or finishing coating can be applied.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
