Uncoupling Membrane

Description

Key Features:

• Uncoupling Function: The membrane serves as an uncoupling layer, which isolates the floor or wall covering from the substrate. This helps to protect the covering from potential damage caused by expansion or contraction of the substrate.
• Sound and Problematic Substrates: The membrane is specifically designed to be used on both sound and problematic substrates, such as concrete, screeds, terrazzo, old tile layers, and masonry.
• Independent Layers: By allowing the floor or wall covering to function as an independent layer, the membrane reduces the risk of cracks, delamination, and other issues that can arise due to substrate movement or imperfections.
• Versatility: Can be used on both floors and walls, making it suitable for a wide variety of applications in different environments.
• Installation on Various Substrates: It can be applied on a variety of substrates, including concrete, screeds, old tile layers, terrazzo, and masonry. This makes it a versatile solution for various types of renovation or new-build projects.

Benefits:

• Prevents Cracking: The uncoupling membrane helps to prevent cracking and damage in tiles or other floor/wall coverings caused by underlying substrate movement.
• Improves Durability: By isolating the coverings from the substrate, the membrane ensures that the final floor or wall covering will last longer and perform better.
• Sound Insulation: It can also provide sound insulation, helping to reduce noise transmission between floors or within rooms.
• Easy to Install: The membrane is easy to roll out and apply, simplifying the installation process and ensuring a smooth, stable surface for subsequent coverings.

Packaging:

• Size: The membrane is available in 1m x 30m rolls, which allows for easy handling and coverage of large areas, ideal for both residential and commercial applications.

Applications:

• Floors and Walls: Can be applied to both floor and wall surfaces, making it versatile for various areas like kitchens, bathrooms, living rooms, and more.
• Problematic Substrates: Perfect for use on substrates with potential issues like old tile layers, uneven surfaces, or those prone to movement or cracking.
• Under Tile Installations: Commonly used before installing tile coverings to ensure a long-lasting and durable finish.
• Soundproofing: Can be used to help reduce noise transfer between floors or rooms, making it ideal for multi-story buildings or noise-sensitive environments.

Ideal For:

• Renovations: An excellent solution for renovation projects where old tiles, cement, or other surfaces need to be treated before laying new flooring or wall coverings.
• High-Traffic Areas: Useful in areas like kitchens, bathrooms, halls, or commercial spaces where the substrate may be subject to movement.
• Uneven or Damaged Substrates: Provides an effective solution for substrates with cracks, imperfections, or movement that could cause future problems with the final flooring.

This uncoupling membrane provides a simple yet effective solution for ensuring the long-term performance of floor and wall coverings. It is ideal for problematic substrates, renovations, and new builds where protection against substrate movement is essential.
