Newton DampSafe 601 Slimline Floor Membrane - 40m²

Slimline Flooring Membrane

Newton DampSafe 601 Slimline is a high-grade floor membrane used primarily for isolating moisture sensitive flooring from dampness in the floor slab. It can also be used as the floor membrane as part of Newton System 500 when the survey has ascertained that no risk of water entering through the body of the slab exists.

Newton DampSafe 601 Slimline allows for the installation of sensitive flooring to be laid above ‘green’, still curing concrete as soon as the concrete is walkable, usually around two days. This significantly reduces project times. With a loading capability of over 1000kN/m2, Newton DampSafe 601 Slimline flooring membrane is able to resist very high compressive loading and is suitable for use as a high load DPC within structural block walls, especially when used to connect the wall and floor membranes within Newton System 500.

Newton DampSafe 601 Slimline is guaranteed against deterioration for 30 years, and has a life expectancy of at least 50 years (DIN 9001:2000). Newton DampSafe 601 Slimline is inert and is highly resistant to water, alkalies, saline solutions and organic acids, and it is not affected by minerals. It is also resistant to bacteria, fungi and other small organisms. Newton 601 is the thinnest profile membrane within the Newton floor membrane profile.
