Versatile, energy saving and chemically resistant, White Knight® is the ultimate liquid membrane refurbishment solution to provide additional reinforcement and weatherproofing to your roofing system. White Knight’s reflective eggshell finishreduces roof temperatures more than traditional dark EPDM, CSPE, and PVC single ply membranes. This dramatically lowers the aging process of the product and the energy required to cool the interior of the building.
White Knight® is a multi purpose single component polyurethane liquid waterproofing membrane, designed for new build and to maintain, restore and upgrade the performance of existing, aged, BUR and single ply roofs.
It is uniquely formulated to provide additional waterproofing protection to BUR and single ply membranes whilst providing a white ENERGY STAR® rated reflective surface.*
This versatile product can be used as a coating, or it can be utilised in conjunction with fibreglass matting to provide additional reinforcement. White Knight® can be used to coat an entire roof.
Waterproofing protection - White Knight® without reinforcement will provide up to 2500 microns (2.5mm) of additional waterproofing protection to an existing single ply membrane. This process will extend the life of the existing roofing system and allow reasonable time to budget for eventual replacement.
This ENERGY STAR® rated product provides a reflective layer overvarious roof systems. This dramatically lowers the energy required to cool the interior of the building. In addition, white ENERGY STAR® roofs help reduce smog and the urban heat island effect that is prevalent in many UK metropolitan areas.
