Waterproofing and decoupling membranes for interior and exterior use

There are various advantages to decoupling wall or floor coverings, e.g. made of ceramic or natural stone, from the substrate by installing a plastic sheet with laminated fleece as a separating layer. Tensions and movements of the substrate caused by temperature fluctuations or too rapid dehydration can be bridged by the decoupling membranes. They prevent the transport of the stresses into the top layer. Furthermore, in the case of building renovation, installation on poorly adhering and critical substrates such as old ceramic or wooden floors is possible without any problems.

Depending on their sd value, many decoupling membranes can also be used as sealing membranes: as a moisture barrier on floor slabs in contact with the ground, as a vapor barrier on floor slabs above rooms subject to high building loads, or as a sealing layer outdoors under tiled balconies and terraces. In addition to these multifunctional membranes, CaPlast also develops special sealing membranes for damp rooms such as bathrooms and showers or kitchens.

In connection with the development of customized waterproofing membranes as well as deep-drawn corners and sealing collars, we naturally take care of the testing for AIV according to ETAG 022 as well as the issuance of the general building inspection test certificates (AbP).

Possible areas of application for CaPlast sealing and decoupling membranes

  • Floor slabs in contact with the ground (DIN 18533)
  • Concrete ceiling against residual moisture during the setting process
  • Floor slab as vapor barrier
  • Damp and wet rooms
  • Balcony and terrace
  • Wall and floor areas
  • ceramic floor coverings
  • Heated and unheated screeds
  • On existing ceramic/natural stone/wood coverings
  • radon barrier
  • dry construction

Configure your geomembranes and decoupling membranes individually

At CaPlast, you have the option of matching functional properties such as sd value, tear strength, tensile strength, elongation, water pressure resistance, or temperature resistance precisely to the desired application and the target functionality of sealing membranes and decoupling membranes.
