  • Can be fitted to floors to act as a vapour barrier and a damp-proof layer.

Description

Proteus Pro-Living® DR8 is a flexible protection and drainage layer suitable for subterranean foundation walls, tanking and basement construction. The 8 mm deep cups provide an air gap between the concrete structure and the backfill. Water runs down the outer surface towards a drain at the bottom of the structure.

Proteus Pro-Living® DR8 creates a permanent air gap when fixed to surface walls and floors, preventing hydrostatic pressure and helping to ventilate the structural wall.


Features and benefits:

  • Made from high density polyethylene (HDPE).
  • Lightweight, flexible and durable.
  • Protects waterproofing membranes from abrasion or puncture.
  • Dimpled “egg-box” profile gives high compression strength.
  • High tearing and impact resistance.
  • Rot-proof, safe for drinking water.
  • Supplied in rolls of 2 x 20 m.
