Application

For use as a damp-proof and waterproof membrane for solid concrete floors, underground structures, reservoir roofs and for internal and external tanking below ground.

Description

Solsheet Self Adhesive Membrane is a two-ply, self-adhesive, damp-proof membrane (DPM) comprising a top layer of polyethylene film bonded to a layer of bitumen/ polymer adhesive on a release paper, with a selvedge strip.

Solsheet SAM can be internally or externally applied to provide an effective barrier to the transmission of liquid water, where grades 1–3 waterproofing protection is required, as stated in BS 8102:2022. Substrates should be primed with Solseal HP Emulsion/ Primer before application.

Features and benefits:

  • Cold-applied.
  • Prevents ingress of water into buildings.
  • Protects building structures from the effect of chlorides, sulphates and other contaminants in groundwater and soil.
  • BBA approved.
