Unlike mechanically-attached roofing systems where the membrane is secured to the system using fasteners, adhered roofing systems secure the membrane to the system using adhesive. Sika has many different types of adhesives to meet your project's specific needs such as water-based, solvent-based, low/no VOC, low-rise foam, and self-adhered. Similar to a Sarnafil Adhered Roofing System, below are some of the reasons why a Sikaplan Adhered Roofing System might be the best fit for your project.
Adhered System Benefits:
Cost competitive against TPO and EPDM
Contour to uniquely shaped roofs
For both low and steep slope applications
Aesthetically pleasing
High-wind uplift resistance
Eliminates sheet flutter and “billowing"
Best option for “non-nailable" substrates
No fastener penetration in the membrane
Adhered feltback membrane minimizes substrate imperfections
