Eradix is a special torch-on 10m² roll root-stop waterproofing membrane for multi-layer green roof solutions especially formulated to protect waterproofing systems from root damage.
The Eradix family of membranes comes from Casali’s research work on special chemical root-stop additives to attain products of absolute excellence for a wide range of project requirements (roof gardens, green roofs, flower beds, ground-laid structures of large and small surfaces).
The compound used in Eradix contains distilled bitumen modified with polypropylene polymer and the Bayer® additive Preventol® B2 which makes the compound an efficient and uniform chemical root-stop barrier, even along the membrane joints. Thanks to the use of reinforcement with high/medium mass per unit area consisting of continuous non-woven polyester, Eradix guarantees good mechanical performance for different types of stress (root pressure, weight of plants and soil, static loads, paths etc).
Top finish in branded polythene or natural slate chips disseminated uniformly and firmly anchored; smooth bottom finish in torched off branded polythene sheets.
Eradix is guaranteed by more than 20 years of use in the field, covered by FLL-EN13948 certification, ecologically compatible - it does not interfere with the growth of plants and is easy to be applied.
