Bitumen primer is a liquid coating used to prepare surfaces before applying bituminous materials, such as bitumen membranes, asphalt, or other waterproofing products. It enhances the adhesion between the surface and the waterproofing layer, ensuring a strong, durable bond. Bitumen primers are available in both water-based and solvent-based forms to comply with project specifications.
Bitumen primer is a great way to keep moisture out of concrete walls by creating a protective layer that helps other waterproofing layers stick better. When applied to concrete surfaces, bitumen primer forms a durable, waterproof barrier that helps protect structures from water damage.
Key Features of Bitumen Primer:
- Improved Adhesion: Ensures better bonding of bituminous coatings to surfaces.
- Surface Preparation: Used on concrete, metal, and masonry to create a uniform and clean surface.
- Waterproofing: Acts as an additional layer of protection against moisture infiltration.
- Durability: Increases the lifespan of bitumen-based waterproofing systems.
Applications of bitumen primer:
- Roofing: Prepares surfaces for bitumen membranes and coatings.
- Foundations: Ensures waterproofing effectiveness in below-ground structures.
- Basements and Retaining Walls: Provides enhanced moisture protection.
Bitumen primer is a vital component for successful waterproofing, enhancing the performance and longevity of the entire system.
Available in 20L pail & 200L drum.
