BBA Agrément Certificate
Certificate type
Advanced self-adhesive, solar reflective, flexible water and vapour proof membrane.
Application
It can be used horizontally or vertically to protect basements and other critical sub-structures from the effects of aggressive ground conditions and water tables.
Description
An advanced self-adhesive, solar reflective, flexible water and vapour proof membrane designed for sub-structures in hot climates.
Features and benefits:
- Protects against methane and radon.
- Not vulnerable to chemical attack; eliminates over-banding of laps associated with aluminum-based membranes.
- Self-adhesive overlaps ensure continuity.
- Over 20% reduction of solar heat absorption while membrane is temporarily exposed.
- Printed overlap line ensures minimum laps; light colour highlights accidental damage for simple patch repairs.
- Wrinkle-resistant.
- Provides effective external protection against aggressive environment.
