Overview of Single Ply Roof Membrane Systems
MRC’s partnership with Haogenplast, one of the world leaders in Elva based formulations and manufacturers of vinyl roofs, with over 30 years of experience in designing, installing and maintaining single ply roof membrane ensures high performance, durable solution with exceptional strength and environmental resistance. Manufactured according to strict QC parameters, these single ply roof membrane systems are perfectly suited to any commercial and industrial roofing system.
Made from high quality thermoplastic, our single ply roof membrane systems are designed to provide steadfast long-term quality waterproofing protection with unwavering integrity. Chemically formulated to ensure the strongest thermowelded seams possible to provide reliable leak proof protection, they also contain Du Pont Elvoy® resins ensuring resistance to environmental chemical interaction.
MRC’s outstanding single ply roof membrane systems are non-flammable, tear resistant and far exceed the ASTM D4434 performance standards. They can be adhered to or mechanically fixed to your current roofing system – ensuring top notch waterproofing protection for many years to come. The membrane polymers have been carefully formulated to prevent curing, stretching, shrinking – and are resistant to long term microbial, chemical and environmental attacks.
For non-compatible or rough irregular surfaces, MRC single ply roof membrane systems are also available with a thermally fused felt backing. This makes them robust and reliable when applied to pre-stressed roofing constructs. – without the usual necessary preparations required to ensure a secure and failsafe waterproofing system, backed by MRC’s guardian guarantee for additional assurance and peace of mind.

Guarantees & Warranties of a Single Ply Roof Membrane System
MRC Africa’s up to 20 year ‘Guardian’ System Warranty cuts through the myth & mystic of product guarantees and workmanship warranties issued by the construction industry.
Traditionally a product guarantee would be issued by the manufacturer and the workmanship warranty would be issued by the installer of the single ply roof membrane system. Two separate pieces of paper, with differing length of terms and when put alongside each other, never answered the question of who will pay for the materials and works if the waterproofing system fails.
‘Guardian’ System Warranty is an unrivalled new era of warranty that covers Materials, Workmanship & Maintenance. The length of term for each element matches and is issued as a single source, transferrable warranty for the life of the guarantee of the single ply membrane roof system.
MRC Africa challenges the construction industry to ensure that the workmanship warranty issued by contractors matches the length of term of the supplied roof system, thereby ensuring high quality installations with designed and tested single-ply roof membrane waterproofing systems.
