Newton 508 Clear Tanking Membrane – 2m x 20m Newton 508 Clear Tanking Membrane is suitable for the waterproofing of earth retained walls, vaulted soffits and floors and is guaranteed against deterioration for 30 years, with a life expectancy of the design life of the building (DIN 9001:2000). Newton 508 Clear Tanking Membrane is inert and, therefore, non-polluting to drinking water, highly resistant to water, alkalines, saline solutions and organic acids, and not affected by minerals and hydrocarbons. It is also rot-proof, and resistant to bacteria, fungi and other small organisms. Newton 508 Clear Tanking Membrane also exhibits high compressive loading stability. Newton 508 Clear Tanking Membrane is also independently tested as an effective barrier to radon ground gases, and is also tested as a methane and CO² barrier. Benefits & Features: Does not require extensive and damaging preparation to the wall surface Speed of installation Provides vapour control when used with humidity control systems and is capable of delivering an environment to all levels within a Grade 3 environment to BS 8102:2009 Independently certified as a barrier to hydrocarbon gases, radon and methane Resistant to rot, chemically aggressive groundwater, acids and alkalines, efflorescent salts and hydrocarbon contamination Newton 508 Clear Tanking Membrane is also independently tested as an effective barrier to radon ground gases, and is also tested as a methane and CO² barrier.
