One micron is smaller than a bacteria cell – which isn’t a very helpful scale, considering most of us don’t have a microscope! UK Manufactured: Made in the UK, this product ensures consistent quality and adheres to stringent manufacturing standards. These 1200 gauge DPMs from Capital Valley Plastics are designed to prevent moisture from the ground entering a property. The low density polythene sheets create a barrier between a concrete slab or screed and the final flooring finish. It can also be used for general DIY and redecoration projects, especially to cover items which require a higher level of protection. If undamaged, it is suitable for reusing again. Extra heavy-duty polythene (1000+ gauge)

When DPM is used in underfloor heating applications, there will be no adverse impact on the membrane. DPM membranes are laid either under a new concrete slab or on top of it to prevent moisture transmission. Ordinarily you will have a bed of hardcore on the ground then either a blinded surface and a DPM before a layer of concrete, or you place the DPM on top of the concrete slab before the final flooring. If you suspect the groundwater to contain sulphates, then the DPM should always be placed below the concrete. It is ideally equipped to safeguard buildings against moisture, rising water and damp from the ground. Tyvek AirGuard Reflective Vapour Barrier 50m x 1.5m: A high-performance, reflective vapour barrier designed to improve thermal efficiency and control condensation in buildings. What accessories are recommended for use with the Visqueen Vapour Barrier? To ensure airtightness, the following high-performance components are recommended for use with the Visqueen Vapour Barrier:Our CE approved 1200 gauge damp proof membrane is manufactured to last the lifetime of the floor construction if it is correctly installed and not damaged by subsequent building operations.
