Fire has fascinated mankind ever since it managed to control it,
though it still is an essential force of nature and when not carefully
handled it can cause destruction and devastation.
Roofing systems are particularly exposed to fire risks caused both by
human activities and the presence of critical technical installations
(ex. Photovoltaic Systems) and a fire originating on the rooftop can rapidly
extend to the rest of the building causing structural damage.
Total control of this force is especially important in the building
industry, as the technological advancements and the evolution of
different design choices have greatly enhanced the quality of life, but
also exponentially increased fire risks in modern buildings.
Heavily protected and reinforced roofing solutions can solve this problem
but, due to the vast number of different roof designs existing, are not
always possible or necessarily advisable (Insufficient static load resistance,
type of roof deck, etc..).
This problem has led researchers to investigate the inherent risks in
the materials employed by the building industry and to develop a new
branch of studies called “Fire Risk Engineering” that analyses and
predicts different materials’ reactions and fire development dynamics.
General Membrane, ever sensitive to fire prevention and building envelope
integrity, has developed products and systems capable of satisfying the
need to protect a building from external fire risks. These solutions fulfil
the requirements of the strictest European standards and guarantee
total peace of mind to Clients and Roofing Contractors.
Building materials, including roofing supplies and appliances, are
carefully observed and their fire reaction and resistance monitored and
recorded. These researches have allowed to develop new solutions
capable of offering an effective passive resistance to fire action, thus
helping to preserve for a far greater time the functional integrity of a
building in case of fire.
In the last 15 years over 5 million square meters of Cut Fire ®
waterproofing systems by General Membrane have been installed all over
the World.
The safety afforded to waterproofing membranes by Cut Fire treatment
allows to employ them effectively in roofing projects where normal
bituminous membranes wouldn’t be usually employed. They are particularly
indicated for the protection of wooden framed buildings and for the use on
roofs hosting photovoltaic systems.

General Membrane has supplied waterproofing products and solutions
to Northern European Countries – the first to adopt fire protection
standards in the building industry – for a long time. This experience
has allowed to develop waterproofing membranes and systems,
certified by the most reputable accredited independent institutions in
accordance to strict standards, in order to exceed Clients’ expectations
and guarantee their safety and protection.
Cut Fire® proprietary technology is based on the Research &
Development results of General membrane Laboratories and allows the
membranes to become self-extinguishing and fire retardant.
This innovative technology affords three major advantages compared to
other solutions:

General Membrane has developed several Broof certified waterproofing
stratigraphies (in accordance with UNI EN 13501-5 Standards).
Broof certified systems include Cut Fire® membranes and thermal
insulation layers (mineral fibre, thermoplastic materials, clays).
There are over 250 certified Technical Specifications that meet any
demands the project designer may have. These Specifications offer
solutions to any external fire risk requirement the roofing system may
demand, both in case of renewals and new constructions.
Broof certified systems have been tested on most of the materials
roofing decks may be made of (wood, concrete, sheet metal, pre-existing
membranes), allowing General Membrane to satisfy any need the
roofing project’s designer may have.
