ParaFlex PM Primer

DESCRIPTION
ParaFlex PM Primer is a primer system comprised of a low-viscosity colourless reaction resin based on methyl methacrylate and a hardener powder.

ParaFlex PM Primer is a primer with excellent adhesion to metal and concrete (e.g. iron, aluminium and waterproof concrete structures) also to ceramic surfaces, marble and granite. ParaFlex PM Primer may only be used without filler. Tests should generally be made on curing and adhesion to the substrate.

APPLICATION
The surface to be primed must be dry, free from dust, grease or oil, and have good adhesion and load-bearing properties. Loose tiles and tiles with cavities behind should be removed. Before applying the primer, remove all corrosion from metal substrates by sanding and/or blast-cleaning.

Mixing
The amount of hardener required is dependent on temperature. For details see the container lid.

The adhesive base should be applied as a sealed film with blanket coverage and in principle should be sprinkled with quartz sand of grain size 0.3 – 0.7 mm or 0.4 – 0.8 mm.

Please also refer to our instructions on priming and our technical information sheets.

SWG Blue Roof Geocells

DESCRIPTION
The Radmat range of SWG Blue Roof Geocells provides attenuation as part of a Blue Roof system that is designed to manage and control incident rainfall at a rate in line with the SuDS strategy or the attenuation requirements for a development.

Manufactured from Polypropylene SWG Blue Roof Geocells are load bearing modular units that are clipped together to form a single or double layer attenuation cell that is wrapped in Radmat G12 Geotextile Filter Fleece. Used in conjunction with rainwater outlet restrictors to control  discharge, the Blue Roof is designed to be half empty within 24 hours.

For a higher loading capability use SWB Blue Roof.

SURFACE FINISHES
SWG Blue Roof Geocells can be finished with a green roof, paving or rounded ballast as stated below. Where a support system is being used to support roof mounted plant or equipment each foot of the support system must be placed on a 1m x 1m spreader plate so as to ensure load distribution.

Green roofs can be installed over Radmat MedO D25, D40 or D80 reservoir/drainage boards can be installed directly onto the Radmat G12 geotextile.

Rounded ballast should be installed over Radmat DM12 drainage board to prevent the rounded ballast penetrating the Radmat G12 geotextile when trafficked.

Bedded paving should be installed over Radmat DM12 drainage board to prevent damage to the Radmat G12 geotextile when installing.

Paving on supports should be installed on paving supports with a minimum 200mm diameter base.

APPLICATION

1. Install Radmat G12 Geotextile Filter Fleece over the roof surface and up all upstands, ensuring enough length is left around the installation for the G12 to wrap up the sides of the SWG Geocells, and enough to overlap a minimum 150mm onto the top of the
SWG Geocells.

2. Lay SWG Blue Roof Geocells, clipping adjacent panels to each other using the SW Cross Connectors ensuring each SWG Roof Geocell is correctly oriented for the clips to meet.

3. Cover with Radmat G12 Geotextile Filter Fleece ensuring minimum 150mm overlaps.

4. Immediately cover with the specified roof finish (green roof/paviors/ballast).
