Liquid DPM - epoxy barrier coating.
Barrier Coat is a durable solvent free epoxy coating system specially formulated for use as a water resistant membrane in both new build and refurbishment projects. It can be applied directly onto wet surfaces free from standing water when used as a primer and, when allowed to cure, will accept most adhesives, coatings and screeds. Barrier Coat has been tested and certified to meet BS 476 surface spread of flame, Class 0 and has been assessed by the Building Research Establishment for water vapour permeability.

Fire protection: When fully cured and applied using the correct coverage rates and application methods, Barrier Coat will give Class 0 Surface Spread of Flame fire protection as tested by Warrington Fire Research, January 2004. Test reports WARRES numbers 136762 and 136763. Vapour permeability: Barrier Coat when applied at the recommended minimum film thickness will give a Water Vapour Transmission rate of less than 2 milligrams per m², per 24 hours, as tested to BS EN ISO 7783-1 by the Building Research Establishment Ltd, February 2005, test report 219725/R1. Water permeability: When tested using a Karsten permeability test all samples gave a nil result, Barrier Coat applied at the recommended film thickness is classified as impermeable. |
