provides a waterproof sandwich membrane with an indefinite life

The roof, often the largest area of uninterrupted surface in a building, can be subjected to considerable thermal expansion and contraction as temperatures change from night to day and from season to season. Therefore, it is vital particularly in territories where such variations of temperature are wide and rapid-that the waterproofing membrane of the roof be highly elastic.
