Whether it's a flat roof or a sloped roof, the materials used for new construction and renovation work are outstanding in terms of cost-effectiveness.
The "Aptorch Method" is a waterproofing technique developed by Towa Kogyo that involves heating and bonding modified asphalt sheets using a torch burner. In the waterproofing industry, various new waterproofing materials and methods have emerged in response to changes in societal conditions. Among these, this method has a proven track record of high reliability associated with asphalt waterproofing, as well as excellent evaluations as an environmentally friendly and labor-saving technique. It is environmentally friendly due to the minimal generation of harmful substances from the melting of asphalt. **Advantages of the Aptorch Method** - One side of the sheet is tapered to a width of 100mm, covering the weaknesses of thick sheet finishes. - The resin film attached to the back of the sheet easily melts under the heat of the torch burner, without hindering adhesion. - The melting state can be visually confirmed. - Complete waterproofing effects, including accessories, can be achieved with carefully prepared auxiliary materials. - It offers excellent cost-effectiveness with common materials for both new construction and renovation, regardless of flat or sloped roofs. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.*

Company information
Towa Industries was established in 1953 with the aim of manufacturing asphalt-based corrosion protection materials for electrical cables, as well as waterproofing, dew prevention, and thermal insulation asphalt roofing and tapes. Since then, we have advanced research and development and improvements with our unique technology, producing modified asphalt roofing materials for waterproofing applications in construction, civil engineering, and bridges. Utilizing research results on the waterproofing, anti-corrosive, thermoplastic, electrical insulation, and shock-absorbing properties of asphalt, we manufacture sealing materials for waterproofing around oil tank bases and joints in embankments, as well as injection joint materials for roads. Additionally, we leverage our production facilities for processing such as mixing, kneading, punching, and cutting, and we offer a wide range of contract manufacturing services. If you are looking for outsourcing for kneading processes, extrusion molding processes, or prototypes, please feel free to consult with Towa Industries. We also accept various packaging and light work tasks. Our factory in Itabashi, Tokyo, can handle small lot orders and provides prompt responses. Please do not hesitate to reach out with your requests.
