Dual layer sheet waterproofing membrane.
Application
- Provide superior protection to below grade structures.
- Typically used for applications in elevator pits, retaining walls, below grade waterproofing, tunnels, and below footing slab.
Description
A high-performance multi-layer sheet membrane waterproofing system consisting of a self-sealing, expandable layer of bentonite laminated to an impermeable, high-density polyethylene (HDPE).
- Dual-layer waterproofing system provides redundancy and added security to the builder and owner that water will not enter.
- Can be installed 24 hours after the concrete formwork has been removed, allowing for a faster construction schedule.
- Robust and can handle a variety of site conditions.
- Bentonite can expand up to 8 times its original thickness to stop water that may make it past the HDPE layer, providing a second layer of failsafe protection.
- The robust HDPE layer provides significant (180kg/m²) of puncture resistance to ensure damage doesn’t occur to the waterproofing membrane by careless trades.
