Description
High-density, polypropylene (PP) cavity drainage system internal drainage membrane that creates a secondary internal wall and floor to regulate water after it has penetrated the structure.

- Sika® Standard Drainage Membrane
- Sika® CD pump kit – single sump and pump kit with alarm.
- Sika® CD battery back-up kit.
- Sika® CD channel.
- Sika® CD channel outlet – for discharging from channel into sump.

– Sika® fixing and sealing components:
- Sika® masonry plug.
- Sika® plaster plug.
- Sika® CD rope.
- Sika® CD tape.
- Sika® CD plaster tape.
- Sika® CD corner seal.
Benefits:
- Cavity drain provides protection from the ingress of water, vapour and gases.
- Suitable for use where the substrate does not have the strength to resist stresses caused by water pressure.
- Can accommodate slight movements within the structure.
- Minimal surface preparation is required.
- Loose-laid and fixed to the wall using surface plugs.
- Once fitted, wall surfaces can be dry-lined or plastered and floors can be screeded.
- Can be used to grades 1–3, and is suitable for high water table according to BS 8102:2009.
- BBA- and BSI-approved.
