Designed as a Roofing Underlay
This product is specifically designed to be used as an underlay rather than the exposed finishing layer of the roof.
The SupaTec Film Underlay is installed beneath a compatible mineral cap sheet to help form a complete built-up waterproof roofing system.
A suitable cap sheet provides the exposed weather-resistant finish, while the underlay creates an additional waterproof layer beneath.

- Flat roofs
- Garage roofs
- Extension roofs
- Porch roofs
- Workshop roofs
- Outbuildings
- Residential roofing projects
- Commercial roofing applications
- New flat roof installations
- Flat roof refurbishment
- Replacement felt roofing systems
SBS Modified Bitumen Construction
SBS (Styrene-Butadiene-Styrene) modified bitumen is commonly used in high-performance felt roofing membranes where durability and flexibility are important.
The modified bitumen construction makes SupaTec a strong choice for professional roofing installations and refurbishment projects requiring a reliable waterproof underlay.
For customers comparing SBS torch-on felt, bitumen roofing underlay and traditional roofing felt systems, this product offers a substantial 3mm membrane designed specifically for built-up roof applications.
3mm Heavy Duty Roofing Underlay
At approximately 3mm thick and 42kg per roll, SupaTec is a substantial roofing membrane designed for professional flat roof installations.
The generous thickness makes it ideal for customers requiring a heavy duty torch-on underlay to form part of a durable multi-layer roofing system.
Each roll measures 12 metres long by 1 metre wide, providing approximately 12m² of material before allowing for overlaps.
Torch-On Application
SupaTec Film Underlay is suitable for installation using the traditional torch-on roofing method.
During torch application, heat is carefully applied to the membrane to activate the bitumen and bond the roofing felt securely to the prepared substrate or underlying roofing layer.
Torch-on roofing can create a strong and secure waterproof bond when installed correctly by an experienced person.
Important: Torch-on installation involves an open flame and should only be carried out by suitably trained and competent installers using the correct equipment and fire-safety procedures.
Can Also Be Applied with Cold Felt Adhesive
Where flame application is unsuitable, SupaTec Film Underlay may also be installed using a compatible cold felt roofing adhesive, subject to the adhesive manufacturer’s instructions and the requirements of the roofing system.
This provides additional installation flexibility for projects where torch application cannot or should not be used.
Film Finish on Both Sides
The SupaTec underlay features a plastic film finish to both the top and bottom surfaces.
Unlike some roofing membranes, this product does not need to be rolled out and left to settle prior to use, helping make preparation more straightforward when installing the roofing system.
Underlay for a Two-Layer Felt Roofing System
For many flat roofing projects, SupaTec Film Underlay can be combined with a compatible SBS mineral cap sheet to create a complete built-up felt roofing system.
A typical system consists of:
- A correctly prepared roof deck or substrate
- SupaTec SBS Film Underlay
- A compatible SBS mineral cap sheet
The mineral cap sheet provides the exposed finished surface while the film underlay provides an additional waterproofing layer underneath.
Using compatible products together helps create a more robust roofing system than relying on a single layer of felt alone.
Suitable for New Roofs & Refurbishment Projects
Whether you’re constructing a new flat roof or replacing an existing felt roofing system, SupaTec offers a practical underlay solution for both new-build and refurbishment roofing projects.
Its 12m roll length also provides useful coverage for garages, extensions, workshops and other medium-to-large flat roof areas.
