Ruviplan V Plus Fleece Back
Ruviplan V PLUS is the principal waterproofing material for exposed roof applications where the system is described as a ‘Bonded System’. Ruviplan V PLUS systems are suitable for new and renovation of flat, pitched and curved roof configurations.
Dimentions
Roll dimensions 1.8m x 15m (27m2). Thickness 1.5mm
Weight 1.85kg per m2. Roll weight circa 50Kg
Colour
Ruviplan V PLUS is available as standard in dark grey (closest RAL 7012).
Light grey is available but NOT stocked so it usually takes longer to deliver. Please email info@ruvitex.co.uk for more information or to order light grey.
Other colours can be ordered subject to minimum order quantity.
Produced using high quality colour pigment and stabilisers the dark grey colour can resemble lead roof covering.
Material
Ruviplan V PLUS membranes are manufactured from pliable PVC with a non-woven syn-
thetic fabric on the underside of the sheet. The synthetic fabric on the underside provides
the key for the adhesive bonding of the membrane to the substrate and adds strength and
durability to the membrane. The PVC contains stabilisers, that make the membrane re-
sistant to high and low temperatures, UV resistant and self extinguishing in event of fire.

Resistance to wind forces
Ruviplan V PLUS has excellent tensile and tear strength and is designed to resist the forces
of wind and weather during many years of service. During the manufacturing process, the
PVC and synthetic fabric are fused together to produce one homogenous sheet.
Low temperature flexibility
Ruviplan V PLUS is manufactured to withstand the low temperatures during winter. The
membrane remains flexible during installation and when in use without fracturing.
Ruviplan V PLUS remains flexible at –25° C.
Puncture Resistance
Ruviplan V PLUS membranes are resistant, without damage, to the limited foot traffic and
light concentrated loads associated with the installation and maintenance work. On areas
of frequent foot traffic i.e. roof access points and routes to roof-top plant etc a suitable
protection layer should be used. Ruviplan walkway membrane, paving slabs on supports
or other preparatory walkways should be used.
Life Expectancy
Ruviplan V PLUS has been subjected to accelerated weather tests that have indicated a
minimum life expectancy of over 30 years. PVC single ply roofing membranes were first
used in Europe in the 1960’s and many continue to provide service after 50 years.
Application
Ruviplan V PLUS membranes suitable for use with faced ridged foam and mineral wool
insulation boards, plywood and OSB boards. Ruviplan V membranes are ideal on projects
where the fixing penetrations normally associated with mechanically fastened systems is
either impracticable or undesirable. During application the roof temp must not be below
5ºC or in excess of 30ºC, as the working time and performance of the adhesive will be
dramatically reduced.
Installation
Ruviplan V PLUS membranes must be installed by applicators/contractors who have the
necessary experience and equipment and have undergone the required training.
Inspection of overlap, seams and general installation must be carried out during and on completion of each installation.
Tensile Strenght
Ruviplan V PLUS membranes have excellent tensile strength and are designed to be resistant to wind uplift forces as well as thermal and structural movement of buildings.
Cold Resistance
Ruviplan V PLUS contains stabilisers which ensure that the membrane is resistant to low and high temperatures
