Viking Epiclad is a ‘no nonsense’ membrane made from 100% EPDM (ethylene propylene diene monomer) rubber, with over 25-years of proven performance in New Zealand.

Viking Epiclad has excellent elasticity, tensile and elongation properties and is virtually indestructible by UV, ozone and weathering. The wide sheets mean less joins, minimal installation time and optimal waterproofing capabilities. Unlike other membrane types, Epiclad membrane is arguably the industry’s best at forgiving a timber building substrate flex and movement, without splitting; especially during changing seasons.

Viking Epiclad FBS (fleece-backed system) is a roofing membrane where a ‘fluffy’ polyester layer is factory-laminated to the underside of the Viking Epiclad waterproofing membrane. Epiclad FBS is one of the best re-roofing solutions for overlaying over old bitumen or uneven substrates such as rough concrete. A specialised two-part foam adhesive is used to securely bond the membrane to the old roof, and the fleeced underside forgives its roughness; thus creating a lot smoother surface than before.

Like Enviroclad FBS, Epiclad FBS also: saves labour time in up-lifting the existing membrane; avoids the environmental impact of waste disposal of the uplifted roofing materials; and minimises the disruption to building inhabitants who don’t have to be relocated.
