Uses:
◇ The high swelling sodium bentonite is encapsulated between a non-woven and woven geotextile. A 'needle-punch- process, interlocks the geotextiles together forming an extremely strong composite that maintains the equal coverage of bentonite, as well as, protecting it from inclement weather and construction related damage.
◇ When wetted, unconfined bentonite can swell up to 15 times its dry volume. When confined under pressure the swell is controlled, forming a dense, monolithic, impervious waterproofing membrane.
◇ Applications: Basements and sub-structures, Retaining walls, and Ground Floors
◇ Applied to: Concrete, Compacted earth, Sand Blinding, Formwork, Piling
Advantages:
◇ Pre-applied tanking systems
◇ Suitable for wet weather and low temperature applications
◇ Quick and easy to apply
◇ Does not require additional drainage or protection
◇ Primers and adhesives not required
