The StrataBit Rapid-O Single Layer Torch-On Bituminous Membrane is a high-performance overlay solution designed for flat roofing projects where efficiency and durability are essential. It provides a reliable waterproofing layer without the need to remove the existing roof, making it ideal for refurbishment work.

Its partial bond design features thermofusible bitumen stripes on the underside, allowing trapped vapour to disperse. This helps to reduce the risk of blistering while maintaining a strong, secure bond through torch-applied installation.

Manufactured from elastomer modified bitumen and reinforced with polyester and glass fibre, it delivers excellent strength and flexibility. With reliable performance in both low and high temperatures, it’s a dependable choice for long-lasting flat roof protection.
