Application

Intended use:

  • For internal and external use, swimming pools, walls and floors, to waterproof and create a vapour barrier before laying ceramic tiles, natural stone and mosaic coatings.
  • Showers, bathrooms, kitchens, saunas, Turkish baths, damp environments, balconies, terraces and flat roofs.

Suitable substrates:

  • screeds and mineral plasters/renders.
  • existing ceramic, marble floor tiles, natural stone floorings anchored to the substrate .
  • cured concrete.
  • plasterboard, wood, fibre-cement and gypsum fibre panels anchored to the substrate.
  • specifically designed for waterproofing substrates based on Tile Backer Boards to avoid individual treatments of joints.

Do not use on bitumen, metal; to waterproof un-coated surfaces subject to foot traffic. As a vapour permeable membrane; for exposed applications; on damp substrates or substrates subject to moisture rising.

Description

Polyethylene vapour barrier waterproofing membrane coated on both sides with high adhesion polypropylene fabric for waterproofing damp environments and environments with high vapour presence before laying ceramic tiles, porcelain tiles, mosaics and stone materials with gel adhesives. Suitable as an anti‑cracking waterproofing system/composition for areas with moderate stress.

Aquastop Fabric can be quickly bonded to all substrates with gel adhesives from the H40 range in order to create a waterproof vapour barrier resistant to alkaline environments and chemical aggressions in uses with higher humidity and presence of water vapour.

Features and benefits:

  • Very low thickness, pre‑formed polymeric waterproofing protection totally waterproof, it provides a vapour barrier.
  • Specific for waterproof laying with H40 Gel and Advanced in Vapor Pro Laminate.
  • Reduces on‑site working times: waterproofing and laying of coverings with gel adhesives without waiting, it withstands foot traffic immediately.
  • Resistant to alkalis and chemical aggression.
  • Anti‑fracture, high elasticity to expansion/tearproof, it reduces the stress.
