Delta Membrane Systems Limited is delighted to announce Dualproof has
been certified by KIWA (European Institution for Testing, Inspection
and Certification).
The BDA Agrément® process is designed to
underpin the ‘fitness for purpose’ of products destined for the European
construction market. Products are examined and rigorously tested
following precise installation instructions.
It is one
of the UK’s major authorities recognised by building control, government
departments, architects, local authorities, specifiers and industry
insurers.
DualProof is a Type A waterproofing pre-applied, sealed
two layer highly flexible PVC membrane laminated with a non-woven
PP-fleece, composite waterproofing membrane which forms a permanent
mechanical bond with freshly poured concrete preventing the tracking of
water between the waterproofing membrane and the concrete sub-structure.
DualProof is a robust, flexible and high-performance
waterproof, damp proof, gas proof membrane and gives concrete protection
against chemicals. Tough and resistant, quick and easy to install,
high compound with shear strength. DualProof can be installed in every
season, regardless of temperature and weather condition. One of the
many advantages to DualProof is that it prevents any lateral water
migration between the waterproofing membrane and the structural
concrete.

“Our approach to structural waterproofing utilises
research and strategy as the foundation to all design ideas and
rationale. Every waterproofing, damp proofing, ground gas or flood
resilience project is unique, but all start with one thing in common –
the requirement of waterproofing design specialists. The only way to
solve a problem is to understand it from every angle. Luckily, we’ve got
a proven process to quench our insatiable curiosity. The BDA
certification of Dualproof epitomises the quality in our approach to
structural waterproofing solutions.”
