BYTUM 400
BYTUM 400 bituminous underlay control layer is the lightest bitumen-based membrane in our range. Despite its limited thickness, it ensures great mechanical strength and durability thanks to the reinforcing layer.
Description
BYTUM 400, the bituminous underlay control layer that ensures manageability and flexibility.
This bituminous underlay control layer is designed for installation on the outer side of the roof. It can also be used as a vapour control membrane, especially on uneven surfaces such as concrete floors and similar.

Description
The application surface must be dry, free of dust and grease. Surface elements must be removed so that the membrane is not damaged during application.
Recommended use: The membrane is designed for applications on the exterior side of the roof.
It can also be used as a vapour control membrane on uneven surfaces such as concrete floors.
Installation: Unroll the membrane and fasten each layer to the substrate using a mechanical fastener to ensure installation stability.
Proceed by sealing using tape such as: FLEXY BAND, FLEXY BAND UV, SPEEDY BAND, or EASY BAND.
