Engineered for the job it protects.
Manufactured through a high-tech calendering process, Insupro features a non-woven polyester carrier saturated and coated with SBS elastomer-modified bitumen compound. With cold temperature flexibility extending to -22°C, a longitudinal tensile strength of 800 N/5cm, and elongation at break of up to 40–45%, Insupro delivers excellent performance in cold climates and applications subject to significant structural movement or mechanical loading. It is suitable for flat and sloped roofs, foundations, basements, tunnels, wet areas, swimming pools, and slab-on-grade construction in demanding environmental conditions.
Insupro is applied via torch-on installation, forming a continuous, durable bond with concrete, metal, and other prepared surfaces. Its high-performance SBS compound provides long-term elasticity and recovery under thermal and structural cycling, protecting against water ingress and moisture damage throughout the service life of the installation. Available with surface finishes including colored slates, aluminum foil, sand, and polyethylene film, Insupro is a technically advanced SBS membrane suited to projects where robust cold-climate flexibility and superior mechanical performance are essential requirements.
- High-grade SBS elastomeric modified bitumen with cold temperature flexibility down to -22°C
- Strong polyester reinforcement with 800 N/5cm tensile strength for demanding applications
- Excellent long-term elasticity and recovery under thermal and structural cycling
- Suitable for roofing, foundations, basements, tunnels, and cold-climate wet areas
- Torch-on application for continuous, durable waterproofing adhesion
The underside of the membrane is laminated with a thin, thermo-fusible polyethylene burn-off film to ensure efficient torch application and optimal adhesion. The membrane is available with a wide range of upper surface finishes, including multi-colored mineral slates, aluminum foil, sanded finishes, and polyethylene film.
Custom surface options and colors are available on request.

Application, Step by Step.
Clean the substrate of dust, debris and standing water, then repair any cracks or voids so the membrane can bond to a sound, even surface.
Apply a bituminous primer evenly across the whole surface and allow it to dry completely before any membrane work begins on the area.
Unroll and align the membrane on the primed surface, allowing the specified side and end overlaps before any bonding takes place.
Heat the burn-off film with a propane torch while progressively unrolling, pressing the membrane firmly onto the prepared substrate.
Torch and seal every overlap with a rounded trowel, checking each joint to achieve continuous, fully watertight seams across the surface.
Finish upstands, drains and penetrations with reinforcing details, then protect the membrane before backfilling, screeding or tiling.
