Energizer® K Plus FR

Product Discription

Energizer is a multi-purpose, rubberised, liquid waterproofing membrane designed to restore and upgrade fire ratings on existing smooth surfaced SBS, APP, and built-up roof surfaces. It is made from the same unique blend of SBS (Styrene-Butadiene-Styrene) rubberised asphalt used in Garland’s HPR modified membranes. Energizer restores the wearing surface of all these membranes and, in some cases, makes it superior to the original wearing surface.

Energizer is available in two grades, Energizer FR and Energizer K Plus FR which has the added strength of Kevlar® incorporated into the coating. Energizer K Plus FR can also upgrade a Class B or C roof to a Class A in some roofing systems.

Features & Benefits

• Extended Life Expectancy

- When SBS and APP modified membranes were introduced, they extended the life expectancy of the standard BUR. However, like anything else, SBS and APP wearing surfaces degrade over time due to erosion from the elements and UV degradation. Energizer puts back the high performance rubber and restores the wearing surface like new. Energizer is very versatile, it can be used on SBS, APP, and smooth or mineral surfaced asphalt roofs.

• Environmentally Safe

- Energizer uses very little solvent which gives it V.O.C. approval. When the Energizer cures, it initially looks like hot applied rubberised asphalt. However, there is no need for a torch or hot kettle.

• Increases Fire Ratings

- Energizer reduces the cost of upgrading Class B or C roofs to Class A by simply coating versus retrofitting. Reduced fire ratings can make a big difference in insurance premiums.

• Kevlar®

- Energizer K Plus FR incorporates Kevlar aramid fibers which are short, tough, engineered fibers that build enough viscosity to impart superior sag resistance. The Kevlar aramid fibers also add increased tensile strength, superior UV cracking resistance, as well as added fire resistance.

• User Friendly/Saves Money

- Energizer can be applied with a brush, squeegee, or sprayed, making it easy for in-house maintenance use. Therefore, there is no need for torches or kettles.

• Cures Quickly

- Because of Energizer’s high solids content, the coating cures quickly. Energizer can be used for smooth roofs and can take a reflective coating within 30 days, compared to up to six months with standard emulsions and solvent-based coatings (considering normal weather conditions, i.e., typical 25°C temperatures).

• The Ultimate Restoration

- For years, solvent and water based coatings were used to successfully protect the wearing surface of BURs. Since high performance membranes are quite common today, a new high performance restoration product is needed. Energizer is the answer to the problem. It is the ultimate roof restoration membrane.
