Torch On Felt Roofing

The Paralon System is an APP-modified bitumen waterproofing solution, BBA certified, with a life expectancy exceeding 30 years.

What is Torch On Felt Roofing?

Torch-on felt roofing, also known as torch-down roofing, involves the application of a bitumen membrane that has been pre-treated with a thermofusible bitumen underside. This bitumen layer is heated during installation, allowing it to adhere securely to the roof surface. Torch-on roofing is primarily used for flat roofing applications, providing a reliable waterproof barrier that is highly resistant to weathering and wear.
