The product is textured on one side to aid adhesion to cast in-situ concrete and available in a large roll format to minimize jointing and for quick installation.


Features and benefits:

  • Conforms in full to BS 8102:2022, CIRIA C748 and BS 8485. CE marked (EN 13967).
  • Unique pre-applied and gas resistant membrane.
  • Excellent VOC and methane barrier resistance.
  • Suitable for both tanking and DPM applications.
  • Exceptional puncture resistance, no protection required.
  • Welding and Visqueen Gas Resistant tape system options.
