Taking a highly engineered Plura membrane as its base, the Pluvitec Engineers developed a special low melt point adhesive for the Thermo Adhesive range.

This adhesive is coupled with the high heat transmission properties of the Plura membrane to create a new system that has a fundamentally different method of installation and provides the following benefits:

Significantly reduced installation time leads to reduced costs and shorter programme.

No flame contact with either the substrate or the insulation, resulting in significant reductions in the risk of secondary ignition during the course of the works.

Can be installed with a Hot Air Gun in place of the traditional gas torch in areas of high sensitivity or risk.

Enables the use of heat sensitive insulation, providing a potentially significant saving in costs.

Method of Application

Prime Substrate.

Loose lay Thermo Adhesive vapour barrier in position.

Remove backing film to allow the adhesive to contact the substrate.

Heat the top surface of the vapour barrier to activate the adhesive compound,
Bed the insulation panels on the activated adhesive.

Loose lay the Plura Thermo Adhesive underlay and remove backing film

Apply the cap sheet using the normal torch applied method, this process will activate the adhesive in the underlay and create the bond

This method allows for the installation of a full built up warm roof system with only 2 heating operations.
