MEMBRANES

Thin pliable sheets of material forming a barrier or lining

CEMFORCE - Reinforcing mesh fabric

Open-textured reinforcing 4mm x 4mm mesh fabric, made of polypropylene strands and fibres.
Designed for use with cement matrices, it is totally inert to the alkalinity of cement and has an extended fibrous interface area with which the cement matrix can interact and mechanically bond.
The Cemcrete mixes are specially formulated to form part of the CemForce, similar to fibre glass and resin.
Available in 1m widths and any length.

CEMLAM - Reinforcing mesh fabric with plastic backing

Lightly woven polypropylene tape with a 4mm x 4mm mesh fabric made of polypropylene strands and fibres, laminated by hot extrusion to form a tough, waterproof substrate.
It is totally resistant to the alkalinity of cement and offers extended fibrous interface on the strands with which the cement matrix can mechanically bond.
The cement matrix is specially formulated to form part of the CemLam to act like fibre glass and resin.
Available in 1.6m widths and any length.

GLASS FIBRE MESH - Woven fibreglass mesh

A treated glass-fibre mesh used exclusively with BaseCoat onto polystyrene surfaces as part of the Exterior Insulation Finishing System (EIFS).
It is alkaline resistant and improves impact resistance and firmness in conjunction with thin skim plasters.
Available in 1m widths and any length.
Available in 5 or 10mm mesh gaps.

POLYPROPYLENE MEMBRANE - Fibred, geotextile membrane

A geotextile which has a random arrangement of fibres ensuring uniform strength and flexibility in all directions.
It’s alkali resistant properties enable it to be used in conjunction with Portland cement-based slurries in water containing structures to seal over cracks and joints.
Used in conjunction with MatCrete to waterproof parapet walls and in conjunction with Permastop or FlexBond cement slurries for waterproofing reservoirs, etc.
Available in m² or cut in 10m x 10cm, 10m x 20cm or 10m x 30cm strips.
