Introducing IKO Permatec LI.
The simple, seamless, sustainable waterproofing solution with over 50% reduced embodied carbon.
Reduced embodied carbon in the construction industry has the potential to significantly contribute towards the UK’s carbon reduction goals. But how can the sector turn these targets into reality?
IKO Permatec LI is the hot melt waterproofing system designed to deliver a reduced embodied carbon footprint for environmentally conscious projects. Suitable for use in most roofing and podium applications, the robust, resilient and responsibly manufactured membrane is an ideal solution for those wanting to step up their sustainability efforts.
Offering the same performance and benefits as our standard IKO Permatec system, the latest LI version has over 50% lower embodied carbon, which represents a global warming potential of 150kg per tonne of material! Plus, the BBA-certified product comes packaged in the UK’s first zero waste wrapper.
Put simply, choosing IKO Permatec LI can not only help you achieve improved BREEAM ratings for your project, but also make a positive impact on the journey towards a lower carbon construction industry.
