Flexible PVC‑P membranes for tunnels and basements
Basements, retaining walls, reservoirs and tunnels demand watertight barriers that keep sealing even when substrates deform or have irregularities.
PVC‑P membranes are designed for high watertightness, strong weld seams, and puncture resistance—supporting long‑term below‑grade performance.
Substrates are repaired (voids/hollow concrete) using polymer‑modified mortar and must be fully dry; any moisture is removed using a blowtorch.
Membranes are assembled using hot‑air or hot‑wedge welding; welding quality depends on clean, dry surfaces and site conditions like temperature and humidity.
An anti‑puncturing geotextile (or protective composite) is placed beneath the membrane to protect and support the waterproofing layer.
