A damp-proof membrane (DPM) is a membrane material applied to prevent moisturetransmission. Typically, a DPM is a polyethylene sheet laid under a concrete slab to prevent the concrete from gaining moisture through capillary action.
Ideal for waterproofing of buildings and building structures creating a waterproof layer under floors, floorings, slabs etc. Manufactured from 100% recycled polyethylene suitable for use as a Type “A” damp proof membrane as defined by BS EN 13967: 2012. Available in a handipack or by the roll.
Dimensions of the roll: 4mx25m. Dimensions of the handipack: 4mx5m
Available at all three branches.
Radon Membrane is manufactured from an enhanced blend of polymer films that is suitable for use in the protection of buildings from the ingress of radon gas. Visqueen Radon Membrane also acts as a damp proof membrane, but is not intended for use where there is the risk of hydrostatic pressure. It is approved for use in Ireland. Radon Membrane can be used in most common floor constructions. It is installed in a similar way to a damp proof membrane, but with much greater attention paid to workmanship and detailing in order to achieve effective sealing at all locations.
Dimensions: 4mx20m
