At Platinum Chemicals, we provide a comprehensive range of Damp Proof Membrane Tapes & Ancillaries designed for use with our complete selection of damp proofing and waterproofing membranes. This category includes mesh tapes, double-sided joining tapes, corner tapes, butyl sealing ropes, and other ancillary products.
These solutions ensure secure, watertight seals between membrane joints, enabling effective moisture control in both above-ground and below-ground applications. Our range includes high-quality products from reputable brands like Platinum, Wykamol, Newton, and Platon, offering trusted and reliable solutions for damp proofing.
Mesh Tapes for Plaster and Rendered Surfaces
Mesh tapes such as Platinum Mesh Tape, Wykamol Mesh Tape, Newton Mesh Tape, and Platon Mesh Tape are specifically designed to be used with meshed damp proof membranes. These self-adhesive tapes, made from butyl rubber with a polypropylene fleece finish, provide a strong surface key for plastering or rendering. Mesh tapes are ideal for applications where the membrane is being installed in habitable areas and requires a surface suitable for further finishing. These tapes not only secure the membrane but also ensure that it can seamlessly integrate into the interior finish.
Double-Sided Membrane Joining Tapes
Our range of double-sided joining tapes, including Platinum UltraSeal Membrane Tape, Platinum Waterseal Tape, Wykamol Membrane Sealing Tape, Platon Sealing Tape, and Newton CDM Waterseal Tape, provides robust, waterproof sealing at the overlap of membrane sheets. These tapes are crucial for ensuring the integrity of your damp proofing system, particularly in areas where membranes meet or overlap, such as at wall-floor junctions, around protrusions, or along flanges. The butyl-based adhesives in these tapes create a lasting, moisture-resistant bond that maintains the integrity of the waterproofing system.
Corner Tapes for Wall-Floor Junctions
Corner tapes such as Platinum Corner Tape, Wykamol Corner Strip Tape, Platon Corner Strip Tape, and Newton CDM Overtape are specially designed to handle the complex geometry of wall-to-floor junctions and other angled connections. These tapes are vital for ensuring an airtight and watertight seal at these vulnerable points, preventing moisture ingress and maintaining the overall effectiveness of the membrane system. Corner tapes are also useful for sealing around complicated architectural features such as corners, reveals, and structural penetrations.
Butyl Sealing Ropes for Versatile Sealing Applications
Butyl sealing ropes, such as Platinum Waterseal Rope, Wykamol Sealing Rope, Platon Sealing Rope, and Newton CDM Waterseal Rope, provide a flexible and durable sealing solution for both wall and floor membrane installations. These ropes are particularly useful where flange joints or stud-into-stud connections are not possible, ensuring that adjacent membrane sheets are tightly sealed together. Additionally, they can be used to form a watertight seal around fixing plugs, further enhancing the integrity of the system.
Ancillary Products for Seamless Installation
We also offer a range of ancillary products, including Newton Newtonite 801 Mastic Sealant, Damp Proof Course (DPC), and Platon Comfort Tape, designed to complement the installation of damp proof membranes. These products provide additional sealing options for complex applications and ensure that your damp proofing system remains effective in preventing moisture ingress. The Newton Newtonite 801 Mastic Sealant, for example, is perfect for sealing around fixing plugs, while Platon Comfort Tape is ideal for joining sheets of Platon Comfort Membranes.
