Certificate type
LDPE Damp-proof membrane. Robust and manufactured from 100% recycled polymers. the environmentally friendly choice for your project.
Application
For use in solid concrete and block and beam ground floors not subject to hydrostatic pressure, to protect buildings against moisture from the ground.
Description
BBA approved LDPE membrane, for use in ground floors not subject to hydrostatic pressure, to protect buildings against moisture from the ground. It is produced from 100% recycled material. The membranes and the methods of jointing provide an effective barrier to the passage of liquid water and water vapour from the ground and have a high resistance to puncture. On smooth or blinded surfaces they will not be damaged by foot or site traffic, e.g. wheelbarrows.
Being manufactured from 100% recycled polymer this membrane is the environmentally friendly choice for damp protection.
