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.
PRECAUTIONS
Take care when moving, transporting, handling, etc. to avoid sources of punctures and physical damage.
Isolate waste products, such as petroleum products, greases, oils (mineral and vegetable) and animal
fats from the RubberGard membrane.
Refer to Safety Data Sheets (SDS) for safety information.
