ONDUTILE INTRODUCTION AND BENEFITS


Ondutile is a unique roof underlay system that utilises Onduline PP corrugated roofing sheets to create a secondary weather-proof membrane under a conventional tile, slate or shingle roof covering. This enables the primary roofing material to be used safely below the manufacturer’s minimum recommended pitch.

   


















 

BENEFITS

 

Weather protection


Being quick to install, Ondutile will provide fast weather protection for the building allowing tiles to be fixed when conditions are suitable.

Ventilation


The sheet corrugations and additional battening provide 17,000mm per linear meter of extra ventilation into the roof space.

Moisture protection


Because the tile battens and fixings are positioned above the moisture flow line excellent moisture protection is provided for the tile battens.

Thermal insulation


The addition of the Onduline deck significantly improves the thermal performance of the roof.

Sound insulation


Ondutile achieves a 27% reduction in the sound penetration through the roof; a considerable benefit for buildings on airport flight paths.

Safety


Ondutile forms a tough non-reflective and safe working environment for roofing operations.

Versatility


The Ondutile underlay is flexible enough to be used on uneven roof structures but with a stiffness to eliminate the noise generated by lightweight membranes under fluctuations in wind pressure.

Security

 


Ondutile will significantly reduce the risk of expensive consequential damage to the building and contents in the event of damage to the primary roof through storms or vandalism.
