Reliable waterproofing of surfaces, details, and special structures
Triflex Roof Waterproofing Systems
Triflex roof waterproofing systems provide long-lasting protection against moisture for roof surfaces, details, and complex special structures. These liquid polymer systems are tested for an expected service life of 40 years and offer planning reliability for new construction, retrofits, and sophisticated roofing solutions.
Why Roof Waterproofing Requires Specialized Solutions Today
Roofs are constantly exposed to UV radiation, the elements, temperature fluctuations, and mechanical stress. At the same time, climate change is leading to an increase in heat waves, heavy rain, storms, hail, and snow loads. Joints, penetrations, transitions, and roof edges are particularly critical areas. This is where different materials, movements, and geometries come together.
Liquid polymer is applied directly on site and seamlessly integrates surfaces and details into a continuous waterproofing system. This results in durable and repairable roof waterproofing that makes buildings more resilient to climatic stresses.

FAQs – Frequently Asked Questions About Triflex Roofing Systems
Triflex roofing systems are suitable for flat roofs and gently sloped roofs in both new construction and renovation projects. Typical applications include occupied and unoccupied roof areas, roof terraces, green roofs, metal roofs, and special structures.
Thanks to their liquid, fabric-reinforced application, the systems adapt flexibly to the substrate and the roof geometry. Even complex details such as connections, penetrations, and roof edges can be permanently and securely sealed.
Yes, Triflex roofing systems are particularly well-suited for retrofitting existing buildings. Depending on the condition and structure of the building, the waterproofing can often be applied directly to the existing substrate without the need for complete demolition.
This reduces construction time, costs, and disruption to the existing structure. The low installation height and liquid application also allow for reliable detailing, even while the building remains in use.
Triflex roofing systems are applied in liquid form and reinforced with a geotextile. This creates a seamless waterproofing membrane that conforms precisely to the substrate and all details.
Unlike waterproofing membranes such as bitumen or synthetic membranes, there are no seams, joints, or overlaps. This allows critical areas—especially at connections, penetrations, and complex geometries—to be permanently and securely sealed.
The systems adhere fully to the substrate, bridge cracks, and allow for quick installation with short downtime. This makes them particularly suitable for demanding roof structures as well as for renovations of existing buildings.
Triflex roofing systems are suitable for use under green roofs and provide a permanently secure waterproofing of the roof surface. The systems are certified as root-resistant and reliably protect the roof structure against root penetration and moisture. Thanks to the seamless, joint-free, fleece-reinforced installation, connections, penetrations, and detail points can be securely formed even beneath green roofs. This makes Triflex roofing systems suitable for both extensive and intensive green roofs in new construction and existing buildings. Weitere Infos unter...
Triflex roofing systems are designed for long-term use and have been validated through independent testing.
For Triflex ProDetail, the KIWA Institute has verified a service life of up to 40 years based on the extended ETA test in accordance with EAD 030350-00-0402. In the tests, the system withstood extreme conditions such as UV radiation, heat, and mechanical stress.
The actual service life depends on the selected system, the application area, and proper installation. Hier gibt es weitere Infos..
Triflex supports planners, architects, building owners, and operators in selecting the right roofing system.
Technical documentation, bid specifications, system recommendations, and personalized consultation are available. If needed, the condition of existing roof surfaces can also be assessed to identify weak points and provide a solid foundation for planning and renovation.
Yes, Triflex roofing systems can be applied even at low temperatures, thereby offering a high degree of flexibility during construction.
Depending on the system*, application is possible starting at 0 °C. For certain systems, such as Triflex ProDetail, application is even possible down to -5 °C*. This allows roofing work to be carried out even outside the traditional construction season.
The exact application temperatures depend on the specific product and are listed in the technical documentation and on the container.
*Our product experts are happy to provide you with detailed information.
Triflex roofing systems cure quickly and, depending on the system and environmental conditions, can bear loads in a short time. This significantly reduces downtime, allowing roof areas to be put back into use quickly.
The exact time until the surface is load-bearing depends, among other factors, on temperature, weather conditions, the layer structure, and the system used.
