Storage & Handling

Storage: Store away from sources of punctures and physical damage.

Assure that structural decking will support the loads incurred by material when stored on rooftop. The deck load limitations should be specified by the project designer.

Store away from ignition sources as membrane will burn when exposed to open flame.
