Product Overview

Rhepanol is FDT’s premier system leading the entire field of flexible waterproofing in terms of quality, added value, performance, versatility and in the all important question of the environment! Uniquely produced from Polyisobutylene (PIB) Rhepanol was the first single ply membrane roofing system in the entire European marketplace.

The only system currently available with a full ‘Life Cycle Assessment’ to
ISO 1400044 proving this product ‘harmless to the environment’ in all stages from raw materials to production to installation and ultimately to disposal at the end of use.

Rhepanol needs no hot works whatsoever during installation, can be installed directly over old bituminous roofs, can be mechanically fixed, bonded or ballasted.

This system is labour saving and will achieve productivity even in inclement weather.

The Self-Sealing Edge System

The pre-fabricated self-sealing edge system is different from conventional adhesive bonding.
Industrially pre-fabricated self-sealing edge for reliable and fast sealing of seams.Sealing of the seams is carried out by firmly joining homogenous materials.

Immediately after the self-sealing edge has been pressed to the connecting membrane the seam is waterproof.

Owing to the integrated self-sealing edge, seams can be sealed without open flame, hot air, solvent welding or additional adhesives, making application more efficient and almost independent of weather conditions.


Application is Simple!
...roll out ...clean the seam, pull off the protective strip ..roll on the edge..sealed!
