A Proven Alternative to Traditional Roofing Build-ups
Insulated roof deck systems offer a proven alternative to traditional, multi-layer, low slope roofing systems. This revolutionary approach to roofing construction provides a complete roof in only two components to simplify the design, procurement and installation of a low slope roof system by eliminating traditional, individual components such as a steel deck, vapor barrier, multiple layers of board insulation, and cover boards.

All Weather Insulated Panels
Sika Sarnafil is proud to partner with a leader in the insulated panel industry, All Weather Insulated Panels (AWIP). AWIP is an innovator in the design, construction, and advancement of foam composite insulated metal panels. They are strategically positioned to meet the growing energy, environmental and economic challenges facing the North American building industry. AWIP’s OneDek® insulated roof deck is viewed as the industry leader.
The OneDek® Difference
The OneDek® system incorporating the RD1 flat roof deck panel creates a single component to encompass the steel deck, insulation, air / vapor barrier and substrate necessary for field application of the Sika Sarnafil PVC roofing membrane for low slope roofs. Onedek® is a high-performance, sustainable and economical alternative to field-assembled roof deck systems. All AWIP roofing products are suitable for installation over non-combustible substrates only.
