Overview
Warm roofs are becoming increasingly popular as the requirement to continually increase the thermal performance of buildings grows. Triflex offers a fully integrated, engineered warm roof solution. The Triflex ProTect warm roof system can incorporate polyisocyanurate (PIR), vacuum insulated panels (VIP), mineral wool and expanded polystyrene (EPS) insulation or combinations of the materials. The build-up is dependent upon the required U-value and condensation risk analysis and in addition to the insulation may include Triflex Spray FastPrime, Triflex Self Adhesive Air and Vapour Control Layer, Triflex Insulation Adhesive and Triflex Self Adhesive Carrier Membrane.
Suitable for both new build and refurbishment, the completely cold liquid applied Triflex ProTect warm roof system offers an engineered solution comprising all system elements. Triflex offers hydrolysis resistant roofing systems which are resistant to standing water and are suitable for zero pitch and completely flat roofs, and where a cut-to-falls insulation scheme is required, Triflex can provide the design.
Application Areas
- Refurbishment
- New build
- Overlay of existing failed waterproofing systems
- Zero pitch / completely flat roofs
- Warm roofs (all insulation types)
- Inverted roofs
- Podium / plaza decks
- Buried membrane roofs
- Submerged waterproofing
- Green roofs
- Brown roofs
- Blue roofs
- Bunds / storage tanks / silos / plant rooms
Compatible substrates
- Felt
- Asphalt
- Bitumen
- Single ply membranes (e.g. PVC, PVC-P, EPDM, EVA, TPO, FPO, TPE, CPE, PIB, VET etc.)
- Cementitious materials (concrete, brickwork, masonry)
- Metals and coated metals
- Plastics
- Coatings (e.g. polyurethane (PU), polyurea (PUA), polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), GRP etc.)
- Glass
- Timber
Triflex ProTect is the ideal solution for inverted roofs as the system is resistant to standing and ponding water.
The system can be used with various overburden, with typical build-ups including a geotextile filter fleece, extruded polystyrene (XPS) insulation, a water reducing layer and various overburden including paving and decking (with and without pedestals) and ballast.
For every application the perfect solution

Resin and finish colours
Triflex ProTect warm roof is available in 5 standard resin colours, and can also be installed with an optional finish colour, expanding the colour options to over 50.
This allows the system to be tailored to meet aesthetic and project needs. Special colours can be produced to order.

Frequently Asked Questions
Warm roof construction positions the insulation above the structural deck, helping to minimise thermal bridging, reduce condensation risk and achieve project U-value requirements. Triflex warm roof systems integrate insulation, waterproofing and drainage design within a coordinated specification.
Yes. Triflex Technical Services can provide project-specific U-value calculations, condensation risk analysis and thermal assessments to support specification development and Building Regulations compliance.
Yes. Triflex Technical Services can provide project-specific U-value calculations, condensation risk analysis and thermal assessments to support specification development and Building Regulations compliance.
Tapered insulation may be appropriate where existing falls are inadequate, drainage performance needs to be improved, or positive falls are required as part of a new-build roof design. Triflex tapered insulation layouts are designed in accordance with BS 6229.
Yes. Triflex warm roof solutions can often form part of an overlay refurbishment strategy, improving thermal performance without requiring a full roof strip-up. This can help reduce disruption and project timescales.
Depending on project requirements, Triflex warm roof specifications can incorporate PIR insulation, vacuum insulated panels (VIPs), mineral wool, XPS insulation and hybrid insulation build-ups.
