APP modified:

APP membranes can be heat-welded or cold-applied and are meant to be applied directly over an acceptable substrate or as part of a multi-ply system. Consider modified bitumen as a combination of the previous two materials. Modified bitumen consists of multiple layers of tar or asphalt that has been combined with polymers similar to those found in single-ply applications. Modified bitumen is applied in rolls. We use "hot" a method for adhesion, such as torches (open flame).
