BORNIT® Edge Flex is sprayed-on cold to protect the asphalt body from water penetrating from the side. In case of a unilateral transverse gradient, the more elevated edge must be sealed on one side, or in twisted areas on both sides, resp., by applying a bitumen compound in order to prevent damaging to the compact asphalt composite.
BORNIT® Edge Flex adheres excellently, also in high layer thicknesses, to horizontal and vertical surfaces. Fine shrinkage cracks, open pores, etc., are filled and covered with the viscous material in a flexible and crack-bridging manner. The material is mechanically applied with the BORNIT® Flexomat 3.1 with the “Edge Module” attached over the entire flank surface in a cost-effective and efficient manner. Thus, one worker can securely seal approx. 600 m of asphalt flank in one hour.
BORNIT® Edge Flex is a flexible, polymer-modified bitumen emulsion with special fillers for secure waterproofing of the elevated edge of asphalt-paved traffic areas.
In the set state, the material is weather- and UV-resistant. After thorough drying, the solvent-free product provides resilient and elastic edge sealing against penetrating surface water. Due to its thixotropic (stable) consistency, BORNIT® Edge Flex can be applied in one go without any problem in the layer thickness demanded according to ZTV Asphalt-StB 07.

- cold workable and manufactured ready for use
- the specified bitumen quantity is applied in one go
- rapid construction progress without waiting periods
- after drying, secure closure of the pores in the edge region
- solvent-free, hence environmentally friendly
