Damp proofing membranes
Damp proofing membranes for floors, walls, foundations and basements.
Damp proof membranes, or DPMs, prevent moisture from entering a building’s interior. The membranes can be mechanically fixed or liquid-applied to foundations, floors, walls or ceilings.
Damp proof membranes can form an integral part of new-build construction, or they can be used as part of remedial measures in older properties. Various membrane types are suitable for above-ground use, or for below-ground applications in cellars and basements.

Vapour control layers reduce water vapour transfer through building components by limiting both vapour diffusion and air movement.
Damp proof courses prevent damp from rising through a structure through capillary action.
Waterproofing and tanking membranes protect buildings from water under pressure (such as in a basement below the groundwater level) or where cavity drainage is the preferred waterproofing method.

Delta FM - cavity damp proof floor and wall membrane
Delta FM is a damp proofing membrane specifically designed to combat dampness and contamination of floors. The special 3mm low stud profile minimises changes in floor levels while still providing an air gap to achieve damp pressure equalisation. Various floor finishes can be achieved with zero ‘down time’ with this fast-track application. Delta FMNewtonite 3mm non-meshed damp proof membrane
