Enviroclad FBS (Fleece-Backed System) Membrane
Description

 Viking Enviroclad FBS (fleece-backed system) is Enviroclad with a 'fluffy' polyester layer that has been factory-laminated to the underside. Enviroclad FBS is one of the best re-roofing solutions for overlaying over old bitumen or uneven substrates such as rough concrete. A specialised two-part polyurethance foam adhesive is used to securely bond the membrane to the old roof surface and the fleeced underside forgives its roughness; creating a smoother surface than before. An unsightly, rough substrate would otherwise show more imperfections through the surface of any non-fleece-backed membrane.

Overlaying an existing substrate achieves cost savings through no reconstruction or dumping of the roof (also good for the environment) and avoids exposing the interior of the building.

Enviroclad FBS is suitable for low-slope and pitched roofs, gutters and parapets, pondliners, balconies, decks and roof gardens of commercial and residential buildings.
