Cemprotec Elastic
has been awarded “Approved Product” status under the
Water Regulations Advisory Scheme. This endorsement
follows successful testing at the Water Quality Centre
in accordance with BS 6920 Part 2, to access its affect
on the quality of water for human consumption. Recently
developed in the Flexcrete laboratories in Leyland,
Cemprotec Elastic is a cement modified polymer coating
that cures to form a tough, permanently elastomeric
film with an elongation of over 100% even in immersed
conditions. Applied at 2mm thickness, it is totally
impermeable to water under 10 bar hydrostatic pressure
(100m head of water) in both positive and negative
pressure situations. It is ideally suited for waterproofing
exposed concrete substrates such as new and existing
roofs and water tanks where cracking is an issue. |
In independent testing it has achieved
Class A5 for static crack bridging in accordance with
BS EN 1062-7 and can successfully bridge cracks in
excess of 2.5mm. It has recently been selected by
Bristol Water to waterproof large expanses of new
concrete roofing at their Barrow Gurney Water Treatment
Works.
