Hytec is a loose laid, flexible polypropylene sheet membrane offering exceptional mechanical properties. Developed especially for fast track railroad possession working, when deck and climate conditions are uncertain, or for masonry arch bridges where no continuous deck exists.

Hytec is the first and only waterproofing system that has been approved for use in accordance with Network Rail Specification and is SERCO PADS registered.

Areas of Application

Ideally suited to concrete, steel, iron and masonry rail structures, with loose-filled, aging or friable substrates:

		Rail Bridges Rail Viaducts (underline)
		Tunnels Culverts
		Tanking Applications Bund Applications

Hytec has both the heat weldable seaming benefits of traditional thermoplastics such as PVC, whilst also having the superior mechanical properties and resistance to aging of thermoset elastomers such as EPDM.

The System

Rolls are heat welded together using conventional hot air welding techniques to provide a durable waterproofing barrier, allowing applications in inclement weather. Hytec is supported by a wide range of accessories tailored to suit the most demanding applications.

The Hytec membrane can be supplied laminated to sheet metal which is easily cut and bent to provide termination trims / profiles, onto which the Hytec membrane material may be directly welded. This facility provides rapid site detailing, especially when termination trims are installed in advance of the main works.
