When selecting a waterproofing bitumen membrane in Sydney for commercial projects, compliance with Australian standards is non-negotiable. With strict National Construction Code (NCC) standards and heightened scrutiny from building certifiers across New South Wales, having third-party verified waterproofing products is essential.
We are excited to share an important milestone for Australian specifiers, builders, and waterproofing contractors. The official CodeMark certification for the SOPREMA Waterproofing System has been updated to include four additional high-performance products.
At Enduroflex, we supply these newly certified solutions to help you meet statutory performance requirements with absolute confidence.

1. CodeMark Certified Waterproofing Bitumen Membrane in Sydney: What it Means
CodeMark Australia provides unassailable proof of product conformity under the NCC 2022 Amendment 2. This updated certificate confirms compliance with Performance Requirements F3P1 (Volume One) and H2P2 (Volume Two) for weatherproofing across building Classes 1 through 10.
When a waterproofing system holds an active CodeMark certificate, building certifiers and surveyors can streamline the sign-off process. You no longer need to rely on fragmented testing reports or push through complex performance solutions on site.
By expanding the certified list of SOPREMA systems, designers gain significantly greater flexibility. You can now specify a fully compliant waterproofing bitumen membrane in Sydney tailored to local climate demands, severe wind loads, and varied substrate designs.
2. Premium Waterproofing Bitumen Membrane in Sydney: NOVAR CH & POLIBIT
The update introduces three robust, APP-modified bitumen sheet membranes into the CodeMark scheme: NOVAR CH, POLIBIT S/P, and POLIBIT MINERAL. Engineered with composite polyester and glass fibre reinforcements, these membranes offer exceptional mechanical strength and long-term durability.
NOVAR CH and POLIBIT S/P are versatile solutions engineered for exposed roofs, internal gutters, decks, and below-grade tanking applications. For exposed roof designs requiring superior UV resistance without extra protective coatings, POLIBIT MINERAL incorporates a pre-applied slate mineral finish.
Why specifiers choose the NOVAR and POLIBIT range:
- Superior Dimensional Stability: Composite reinforcement resists thermal movement and structural expansion.
- Versatile Substrate Compatibility: Certified across concrete, timber, and approved rigid board substrates.
- Proven Performance: Evaluated to rigorous AS 4654.1 standards for heat ageing, seam strength, and moisture resistance.
3. INSONO AF3: Acoustic Insulation Meets Direct-Stick Waterproofing
One of the most notable updates to the CodeMark scope is the inclusion of INSONO AF3. This innovative, self-adhesive elastomeric bitumen membrane combines waterproofing, acoustic damping, and anti-fracture protection into a single layer.
Designed specifically for internal wet areas, bathrooms, and external balconies, INSONO AF3 allows for direct-stick tile applications. This eliminates the need for thick, heavy acoustic screeds, saving critical floor height and speeding up site schedules.
Tested under AS 4654.1 and BS EN standards, INSONO AF3 offers multi-residential developers a proven method to satisfy both acoustic impact standards and wet area waterproofing rules in one efficient step.

4. Complete Systems with Waterproofing Bitumen Membrane in Sydney
A high-performance waterproofing bitumen membrane in Sydney does not work in isolation. To achieve a durable, energy-efficient building envelope, the membrane must function seamlessly with surrounding thermal insulation and roof drainage components.
SOPREMA waterproofing systems certified under CodeMark are designed for both cold and warm roof configurations. Whether you are installing PIR insulation boards, incorporating tapered insulation to create required falls, or designing a lightweight green roofing system with root-resistant cap sheets, our technical team can help you assemble the right system.
