Hey Mike, Axel
i checked the site (translated from Japanese) seems to be Butyl.. if you see
the pic i sent in my previous mail the mat is folded rather than rolled ..
Mike it would be great if you give me a quote.. i believe you would know
what quantities i'd require for a full job on an SEC.. too bad it not
distributed in Dxb .. maybe we can do business in the future ;)..
thanks
Yousef
