Why Midex is Unique?
MONOSHELL
No joints, therefore not water leaking and a great resistance
TOTAL SEALING DURABLE
The fibre glass can resist more than 100 years it is not damaged, useless to replace it every 12 years like the other membranes
ECOLOGICAL
Uses much less materials, because it does not need multiple layers of products for the sealing and by what it does not change it every 12 years
VERSATILE
Fibre glass can apply to varied shapes from the ground to the ceiling
LIGHT
The sealing membrane is only 4 millimeters, it is thus fine and light.
WARANTY
We give 30 years of waranty in Canada, and it is transferable if you sell your property.
REDUCTION OF INSURANCE COST
We work on reducing insurance cost since we do not have disaster thanks to our total sealing
WATER RECOVERY
As there is no contact with tar or other petrochemical products, the rainwater is almost pure and could be re-used for the watering of the plants.
RETENTION OF RAINWATER
At the time of a storm, 50% of the rain can be retained by the garden roof. Therefore cities doesn’t have to spend millions to increase water pipes due to soil proofing.
HARDNESS
Our product resists a force of impact of 160 tons to the meter and can even be armoured with Kevlar or carbon fibre.
FLEXIBILITY
The product by its grid and its specific texture resists to strong thermal amplitudes, and different weights like the one from snow in Canada.
FIRE RESISTANCE
Fibre glass does not burn. ULC-S107-M 1980 « Standard Method of test for fire resistance of roof covering materials » class C.
RESISTANCE to GREASY SUBSTANCES AND ACIDS
This is very appreciated in agribusiness industry because before other membranes found themselves perforated by the lactic acids.
RESISTANCE TO THE ULTRA-VIOLETS
What allows a better insulation and a weak change of color of the membrane in time. Reflectivity up to 78% with white membranes, that allows us to have one LEED point.
RESISTANCE TO SALT and CALCIUM
within the concrete framework like tunnels or bridges, the glass fibre MIDEX® protects the concrete from the calcium and salt attacks which can degrade the long-term structure.
CHOICE OF COLORS
Within the framework of a standard roof without garden, there exists a large variety of color of membrane available. (over 3000)
AVOID SNOW REMOVAL
For the vegetalized roofs, in zone of strong snowfall, as the ground is never cold in-depth it makes it possible snow to melt by the lower part and thus avoids the snow clearance.
LEED POINTS
The realization of a vegetable roof cumulated with the use of the glass fibre roof MIDEX® can make it possible to obtain up to 3 points LEED according to the projects.
FLEXIBILITY OF THE BUDGET
If your budget is more restricted you can start with a roof standard terrace and then carry out an insulation or better by finishing the vegetalization of your roof.
FLEXIBILITY IN TIME
Contrary to traditional membranes which require to carry out the vegetable roof immediately, MIDEX® will be able to await the date of your choice for the realization of your garden and you will be able in the interval to use your terrace.
Best applications:
- Over complicated frames such as domes or circular frames
- For roofs with acids or lubricates, like restaurant or agroalimentary businesses
- To protect concrete, tunnels, bridges…
- Hospitals, hermetic room,cloackrooms, kitchen everywhere germs are difficult to eliminate
- Security purpose, army, bulletproof walls or roof, sound proofing.
- Desert area with water recycling
- Places with intensive use of the roof
