Alan Williams at AAC Waterproof Roofing
WATERPROOF roofing specialist AAC has invested £65,000 in a second vulcanising machine to meet growing demand for its Prelasti EPDM system.
The company has commissioned and installed the 10-metre unit, adding to its existing 25-metre machine, to increase capacity and eliminate maintenance downtime.
AAC is the UK’s sole supplier of Prelasti, a prefabricated EPDM roofing system that uses vulcanising bonding technology rather than adhering strips.

AAC is the UK’s sole supplier of Prelasti, a prefabricated EPDM roofing system that uses vulcanising bonding technology rather than adhering strips.
According to the manufacturers this makes the material more durable and gives it a longer 20-year guarantee and a proven life expectancy of 50 years.
AAC recently installed Prelasti at TV adventurer Bear Grylls’ lighthouse off the North Wales coast. It also worked on Snowdon’s rebuilt mountain summit café.
Marketing Coordinator Alan Williams said: “We’ve had a very busy January and so the second vulcanising unit is coming online just at the right time.
“We aim to grow further in 2012, and continue to promote the advantages of off-site fabrication, especially where roofing is concerned, and hopefully see greater understanding in the industry of the benefits it brings.”
January marked another success for AAC when it became Achilles Building Confidence accredited, adding to its Investors in People award.
Typical AAC projects include commercial and residential roofing, including school refurbishments and Government building projects across England and Wales. Many public sector departments and building contractors now insist on Achilles accreditation from roofing contractors and other trades.
Prelasti prefabricated EPDM is recognised for its environmental qualities and is frequently specified for roof gardens and as pond and lake liners.
AAC has also supplied and installed Prelasti as a complete external “skin” for an artist-designed house in Dungeness, and an environment-friendly row of terrace houses at Scotland’s first housing expo.
