Sikaplan®-1653 Adhered VOC Gas Barrier
Verified by manufacturer 4 months ago
A post applied, multi-layer, polyethylene membrane for below ground waterproofing and gas protection.
Application
Suitable for use as a ground gas, hydrocarbon protection and waterproofing at ground level or below ground installations.
Description
Sikaplan®-1653 Adhered VOC Gas Barrier is a self-adhesive version of Sikaplan®-1651 Loose VOC Gas Barrier; composed of self adhesive bitumen with an upper surface finish of Sikaplan®-1651 Loose VOC Gas Barrier and a lower surface finish of a protective siliconized polypropylene release film. It is used for the gas/ waterproofing/ tanking of underground structures where harmful ground gases are anticipated, as a post-applied fully bonded membrane.
Features and benefits:
- Quick and easy installation.
- A fully welded system.
- High resistance to ground gases.
- Exceptional chemical resistance.
- Manufactured to meet the most up-to-date British Standards and guidance.
- Long-term durability (performance guaranteed for the lifetime of the building).
Approvals/ standards:
- Conforms to the requirements of EN13967:2012
- NHBC Standards Compliant.
- BS 8485:2015 + A1:2019 Compliant (Methane and Carbon Dioxide Barrier).
- CIRIA C748 Compliant (VOC barrier).
- BS 8102:2022 Compliant (Type A Waterproofing Barrier).
- BBA Certified - Certificate No: 19/5681.
