Screed
floors have variable drying times and it is difficult to ascertain
when they are completely dry to accept flooring finishes. With
Newton Slimline the problem is eradicated as the membrane allows
the screed beneath to achieve vapour equalisation whilst allowing
the required floor finish to be laid directly above it on a
dry surface. The result is a dry floor giving good thermal and
sound resistance.
This
membrane is thicker than conventional DPMs
and has the added advantage of being able to marry up to
Newton Newlath 2000
& Newton System 500.
Newton Slimline
is a tough resistant membrane that allows damp to move through
the structure whilst giving a dry and slightly cushioned surface.
It has a greater capacity of vapour resistance than traditional
damp proofing membrane systems and can withstand scratches and
grazes from rough screed.
Please Note:
Newton 500 (8mm stud DPM) and Newton 520 (20mm stud DPM) can
also be used as flooring membranes in situations where there
is aggressive groundwater situations. Please see the flooring
membranes section of our Product
List and the Newton System 500
product information page.

the Newton Slim Line Flooring membrane your complete solution
for effective floor protection. |
