BITUTHENE® GP - Rubber Bitumen/HDPE Waterproof Membrane
Verified by manufacturer 2 months ago
BBA Agrément Certificate
Certificate type
Self-adhesive rubber bitumen/HDPE waterproof membrane for low risk applications.
Application
For low risk applications
Description
Bituthene GP is used for low-risk applications only and is capable of resisting a hydrostatic head up to 1 m.
Self-adhesive rubber bitumen/ HDPE waterproof membrane. All surfaces except those below ground bearing slabs should be primed with one coat of Primer B1 applied by brush or roller. Bituthene LM can be applied at necessary internal and external corners, penetrations etc. prior to applying the overall membrane.
Features and benefits:
- Capable of resisting a hydrostatic head when fully supported (up to one metre of water).
- Safe, no flame, no heating, no torch-on equipment.
- Self-adhesive overlap ensures continuity.
- Accommodates minor settlement and shrinkage movement.
- Flexibility and resistance to most dilute acids and alkalis.
- No risk of over or under heating.
