Bituminous Membrane Waterproofing in Malta
The bituminous membrane is our flagship product and the most trusted roof waterproofing system in Malta. Also known as a torch-welded or "carpet" membrane, it is heat-welded directly onto the surface to form a tough, seamless barrier that keeps water out for decades. It's the ideal solution for flat roofs, terraces and appoggi on both residential and commercial buildings.
At WP Ltd we've been installing bituminous membranes across Malta and Gozo since 1988.
Every roll we apply is BBA, ITC or ISO certified, and every installation is backed by a guarantee of up to 20 years — so you get lasting protection against leaks, damp and water infiltration.

Types of Bituminous Membrane
- APP-modified Bitumen
This asphalt-like material, enhanced with minuscule granules and particles, offers superior protection by effectively deflecting the sun’s UV rays, making it highly resistant to weathering and solar damage.
- SBS-modified Bitumen
This smooth, elastic asphalt membrane is perfect for use on foundation walls, interior walls, and concrete screed roofs, offering excellent flexibility and durability in various applications.
Applications of Bituminous Membrane
Bituminous membranes also referred to as torch-welded membranes or carpet membranes are perfect for flat and low-pitch roofs, accessible terraces, appoggi, parapet walls and below-ground foundations. Whether you're building new or fixing a leaking roof, our team prepares the surface, torches on the membrane and finishes it to last.
