Polymer Modified Asphalt
This is a Mastic Asphalt which has been manufactured using a polymer modified bitumen. The product contains all the performance advantages of standard asphalt, but it also has enhanced handling characteristics and increased high temperature stability. BriggsAmasco craftsmen have been applying Mastic Asphalt for generations and today use their traditional skills to also lay Hot Melt Monolithic Roofing and Waterproofing Systems.
Flat Roofing
Mastic Asphalt is highly suited as a flat roofing material where it is not excluded by weight considerations.
