This next-generation non-toxic roof sealant eliminates the environmental concerns associated with lead flashing products while maintaining the integrity of the roof.

Its inert qualities mean that Wakaflex can be installed with all roofing materials and will not contaminate any runoff being collected and used for domestic purposes, making safe rainwater harvesting possible.

Wakaflex is the longest established and leading non-lead flashing solution available in Australia. Suitable for most roof profiles and types it is the only butyl-based flashing with a unique chemical self-bonding ability and without a fully backed adhesive for easier installation. It has an aluminum honeycomb mesh embedded into the UV-resistant butyl-based rubber which allows for easy dressing to any roof profile without the use of any tools or additional silicone.

Wakaflex™s lighter, safer, and easier to use. Try it on your next project and see for yourself why so many have already left lead for dead.
