Application

Suitable for all wall and floor applications. Internal or external refurbishment and new build projects.

Description

A thin and light waterproof material protects substrates from water damage below tiles. A universal membrane suitable for use on both floors and walls alike, it is set into tile adhesive, building a superior waterproof barrier.


Features and benefits:

  • A very thin membrane, with uniform thickness and no weak points, AquaeGUARD™ is buried within the tile adhesive.
  • Used below all tiles applications, the product creates a waterproof barrier protecting substrates from water damage. The three ply membrane is manufactured from polyethylene sheet sandwiched between two outer layers of non-woven polypropylene.
  • Joints between adjoining materials and awkward shapes are bridged with jointing tape and pre-formed accessories.
  • Suitable for use with all tile adhesives.
  • Tiles can be fitted immediately, improving project installation time.
  • Can be used in all internal sealing projects, with materials such as under tiles or sheet stone slabs.
  • Very easy and quick to use.
