Damp proof membrane for floors (DPM)

Damp proof membrane for floors (DPM) are required for use either above or below solid concrete floor slabs that are in contact with the ground. Their purpose is to prevent moisture transmission from the soil through the substrate, in accordance with building regulations.

DPMs can also be used to form ground gas protection systems, shielding buildings against radon, carbon dioxide, and methane.

Structural waterproofing

IKO structural waterproofing solutions are designed to offer damp proof performance for buildings with earth retaining walls, ground floors, and adjacent walls above the ground.

They also deal with water ingress below ground level in order to achieve a watertight environment. This can all be accomplished with our damp proof course (DPC) products, damp proof membranes (DPM), and tanking membranes.
