Hey flat roofers, time to rethink roofing?

Time to rethink roofing. Time for EPDM from CARLISLE®

Watertight, efficient, and built for the future – that's what modern flat roofing looks like. EPDM membranes from CARLISLE® simplifies your workflows, reduces installation effort, and gives contractors, planners, and architects the confidence to plan with certainty.

RESITRIX® and HERTALAN® are proven, long-lasting EPDM system solutions for refurbishment and new builds, offering everything from flexible membranes to factory-prefabricated sheets. They are single-ply, do not require an open flame and are faster to install.

For flat roofers it's time to rethink roofing- time to discover EPDM.

Know your materials, own the job

Sun, rain, frost, wind, UV radiation and tree roots:

Hardly any other building component is exposed to such extreme conditions on a permanent basis as a flat roof, and it is precisely this that causes many conventional systems to age rapidly.

That is why EPDM was specifically developed to address these challenges. This synthetic rubber material is permanently elastic, can withstand extreme weather conditions and boasts an exceptionally long service life. The South German Plastics Centre certifies that EPDM has a service life of over 70 years.

What sets EPDM from CARLISLE® apart in practice:

  • Elongation at break of up to 600 %

  • Cold-flexible down to –45 °C

  • Virtually shrink-free and bitumen-compatible

  • Halogen- and plasticiser-free

  • Safe installation without open flame

  • Single-ply waterproofing saves material and resources

Our product pages provide comprehensive details on everything that makes EPDM from CARLISLE® exceptional, from system build-up and accessories to technical specifications. They are informative, comprehensive and shares case studies as for practical examples.

Your benefits when working with CARLISLE®

Enquiry / First consultation

Get in touch whenever it suits you – in person, by phone or through your trusted merchant. In our first conversation we get to know your project and show you how we can support you with new build, refurbishment, roofing or structural waterproofing.

On-site visit

On request, we'll come to your office or directly to the site. We assess the local conditions, take measurements together and create a solid foundation – for every project, from a small extension to a large-scale refurbishment.

Concept and build-up recommendation

Based on your project, we develop a tailored build-up or refurbishment recommendation. You get a technically sound, cost-effective concept that fits your specific structure exactly.

Material calculation and planning support

We provide BoQ texts, CAD drawings and calculations such as U-values, wind uplift, drainage and sheet layout, and are there for you on site too.

We calculate the exact material requirements and make everything available to your chosen merchant. You receive a complete quotation – no manual calculations on your side, no unnecessary excess in your order.

Installation

We train your team in theory and practice – through on-site inductions, in-house training at your yard, or at our CARLISLE® ACADEMY. Our technicians walk your crew through the installation step by step – so your team works safely, efficiently and stays in control. That way we prevent errors before they happen, answer open questions, raise quality and make work processes more efficient.

CARLISLE® ACADEMY

Customer Voices

This self-adhesive membrane just won me over completely – with its root resistance and the single-layer waterproofing. You save time, you save logistics costs, you save so much with this single-ply system, simply because you're so much faster. Same goes for all the detail work: you save the composite metal flange. I think it's just brilliant."

Nico Möst, Master Roofer
Managing Director, Bauspenglerei Möst GmbH & Co. KG

I first came to know and appreciate RESITRIX® years ago whilst working for my former employer. I was immediately impressed by how quick and easy it is to install these durable EPDM waterproofing membranes. In 2020, I set up my own business – my team and I are committed to professional expertise and high-quality workmanship to ensure the best possible execution of our clients’ projects. Naturally, RESITRIX® is an integral part of that for us."

Florian Neumann, master roofer
Managing Director, Florian Neumann GmbH, Master Roofer

Our four pillars for a successful partnership are trust, reliability, quality and passion. At CARLISLE®, we have found these values – and, with RESITRIX® SK W, a superb EPDM membrane that will last for decades and can even be combined with a green roof. It is the perfect waterproofing product for our unique all-in-one solution, the NATURE garage roof."

Michael Zenk, master roofer
Managing Director, MB Dachkonzepte GmbH, a master craftsman’s firm

As an architect, it is particularly important to me to have a point of contact at the manufacturer right from the project preparation stage, someone who can provide expert guidance from the planning phase right through to project completion, and who remains available to offer advice and support even afterwards. With CARLISLE®, I feel I am in very good hands at every stage of the project."
