RIW Structureseal GPT
Verified by manufacturer 3 days ago
Structureseal GPT is a pre-applied, unique blended polyethylene membrane with a bonded geotextile for pre-applied waterproofing applications, where ground gas or VOC protection is also required.
Application
The product is pre-applied for use in basements and sub-structures, floor slabs at ground level, boundary line applications and retaining walls. Can be applied to:
- Concrete structures with extended below ground level.
- Formwork.
- Blinding layer.
- Piling.
Description
Pre-applied, Type A tanking membrane, suitable for use where protection against the ingress of hazardous ground gases, volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and hydrocarbons is required.
Features and benefits:
- Provides hydrocarbon, water, VOC, methane, radon, carbon dioxide protection.
- Forms a mechanical bond to the external face of the concrete structure.
- High puncture resistance.
- Long-lasting jointing and sealing system.
- Welded joints possible.
- A separate tanking or damp proof membrane is not required.
- Pre-applied tanking system.
- Robust.
- Compliant with BS 8485: 2015, BS 8102: 2009, BS EN 13967, BS 8485:2015+A1-2019 and CIRIA C748.
- CE marked.
