As the construction industry continues to grow across emerging markets and developed nations alike, the demand for high-performance, cost-effective waterproofing materials has never been greater. One of the most widely used solutions is bitumen felt, especially when reinforced with high-quality base mats. At Guanlong Waterproof Materials Co., Ltd., we understand that pricing is one of the key decision-making factors for contractors and procurement managers. In this article, we take a closer look at the bitumen felt base mat price and what influences it in today’s market.
What Is Bitumen Felt with Base Mat?
Bitumen felt is a roll-based waterproofing membrane made by saturating a base mat with bitumen (asphalt), often further coated for enhanced durability. The base mat can be made from:
-
Glass fiber (fiberglass mat)
-
Polyester (non-woven polyester mat)
-
Composite reinforcements (glass + polyester combinations)
Each type affects both the performance and the final cost of the product.
Key Factors Affecting Bitumen Felt Base Mat Price
-
Type of Base Mat Material
-
Glass Fiber Mats: More affordable, commonly used for lower-cost waterproofing projects.
-
Polyester Mats: Offer superior strength and flexibility, often priced higher but ideal for high-performance applications.
-
Composite Mats: Balanced performance and cost, often chosen for premium projects.
-
-
Bitumen Type and Thickness
-
Modified bitumen (e.g., SBS, APP) will impact the price. SBS-modified membranes are more elastic and durable, while APP types are UV-resistant.
-
-
Roll Dimensions and Thickness
-
Common dimensions include 1m x 10m rolls, with thickness ranging from 2mm to 4mm. Thicker materials cost more but provide better waterproofing and longevity.
-
-
Order Quantity and Supply Terms
-
Bulk orders benefit from factory-direct pricing. Guanlong offers competitive pricing for container-sized orders, especially for overseas buyers.
-
-
Raw Material Market Trends
-
The price of asphalt, polymer additives, and polyester fibers fluctuate with oil prices and supply chain dynamics. The first half of 2025 has seen moderate price increases due to rising crude oil prices and transportation costs.
