Multi-layer, low-density polyethylene membrane, reinforced with a polypropylene grid and integral aluminium foil.
Suitable for restricting the ingress of radon, methane and carbon dioxide into buildings from landfill and naturally occurring sources.
JUTA GP®1 Gas Barrier is a multi-layer, low-density polyethylene membrane, reinforced with a polypropylene grid with integral aluminium foil. GP®1 is specifically designed and manufactured to perform as a Methane, Carbon Dioxide, Radon, Ground Gas, VOC, air & Moisture protection system.
Features and benefits:
Should be used on any site where carbon dioxide, methane or radon is present up to and including CIRIA 665 SITUATION 6. The barrier is sufficiently resistant to the ingress of harmful gases into a building. On more heavily contaminated sites a passive or active venting system may be required to dilute the gases down to acceptable levels and specific design advice should be sought.
