BauderTHERMOPLAN T
Bauder’s flexible polyolefin (FPO/TPO) single ply membrane — an alloy of thermoplastic and rubber on a polyester reinforcement, hot-air welded, halogen-free and compatible with green roof build-ups. Mechanically fastened, adhered or ballasted; UK colours Pearl White and Silver Grey.
Carbon and evidence
Product Evidence
Evidence currently held for the Bauder product record.
Recorded Carbon Result
A1–A3 GWP-total per m² of average THERMOPLAN FPO membrane (2.2 kg/m²), per IBU EPD-BAU-20220195-IBC1-DE; thickness variance ±24%
Indicator: GWP-total
A1–A3 covers raw-material supply, transport to manufacture and manufacturing. It is product-stage information, not a whole-life result.
