Benefits

When it comes to water and gas protection, our PermaSEAL Self-Adhesive gas membranes lead the way. The quality of the bitumen means they are quick to apply and super adhesive. They are tough and self-protecting which means they are resistant to rips and perforations.

Installation

Preparation

Start by making sure your substrate is clean, free of dust and previous coatings, smooth and dry. A primer will be required for porous substrates - we recommend PermaSEAL Self-Adhesive Bitumen Primer. Closely follow the instructions to guarantee correct application.

Application

PermaSEAL Self Adhesive Gas Membrane needs to be applied downwards. This means you start with the roll at the highest point and make your way down. Overlap the membrane by a minimum of 50mm on edges and 150mm on top joins.

Once rolled out in position, press the membrane against the substrate. You should pay particular attention to corners, edges and overlaps. Use a pressure roller on all joints and overlaps to seal the membrane and remove any trapped air.
