The Fatra ballasted system can be implemented with a number of different types of ballast. Including pebbles, adjustable chairs/pedestals and pavers or even a floating timber deck can be used to ballast the PVC membrane system into place.
Depending on site specific requirements and objectives the membrane can be loose laid or mechanically fixed over the existing failed membrane which substantially reduces the overall project costs and risks associated with removing existing membranes and exposing the existing structure to water damage during this process.
Implementing a ballasted system can reduce cost depending on the method of application whilst providing protection to the PVC membrane from the harsh UV which will in-turn increase the life expectancy of the membrane. By implementing a ballasted system it covers the PVC membrane and can provide a very aesthetically pleasing finish.
The Fatra Armour protection mat is installed directly over the PVC membrane to provide protection to the waterproofing system from any sharp edges and pertruding items which might be present in the desired ballast.
The Fatrafol 810v reinforced membrane is installed over the FatraTex geotextile protection layer. The Fatrafol 810v is loose laid over the protection layer and is ballasted into place by the desired ballast.
FatraTex geo-textile fabric is loose laid over the existing failed membrane to provide protection to the Fatrafol PVC membrane from any potential contaminants which maybe present in the existing membrane.

The Fatra prefabricated ventilation pipes have a PVC membrane flange enabling the ventilation pipe to be simply inserted and welded to the PVC sheet membrane. All ventilation pipes come with a rain cap to prevent water ingress through the top of the pipe.
The Fatra Fix bar is an aluminium box section encapsulated in PVC membrane. The Fatrafix bar is hot air fusion welded to the Fatrafol PVC membrane system and enables clients to mechanically anchor items such as solar panels, mechanical plant, timber decking and other roof mountable units without physically penetrating the membrane.
