• Solvent-free rubberised bitumen emulsion
• Cold-applied damp-proof membrane in sandwich constructions
• Also a waterproofer for floors, walls and above-ground structures
• Curing membrane on green concrete; adhesive for boards and panels
• Bonds on damp surfaces, low odour, resists extreme heat and cold
• 2.5 L and 5 L

First, make sure the surface is sound; it can be damp, which is one of its advantages.

Next, apply by stiff broom or brush, working it into the surface.

Then build up coats as the job requires, following the technical data sheet for membrane work.

Finally, let it dry to a tough black coating. For priming very porous surfaces first, see our Bitumen Primer; for brush-grade roof coatings, Bitumen Paint.

What is rubber bitumen emulsion used for?

As a cold-applied damp-proof membrane in sandwich constructions, a waterproofer for floors and walls, a curing membrane on green concrete, and an adhesive for boards and panels.

Is it solvent-based?

No, it is solvent-free and low odour, which makes it more pleasant and safer to use than solvent-borne bitumen products.

Can I apply it to a damp surface?

Yes, it can be applied to damp surfaces, which is useful where you cannot get a surface fully dry.

How do I apply it?

By stiff broom or brush, building up coats as the job needs. Check the technical data sheet for membrane details.

What can it bond?

Wood blocks, wood mosaic panels, insulation boards, expanded polystyrene and cork panels, and it works as a plaster bonding agent on difficult surfaces.

Should I prime first?

On very porous surfaces, prime with our Bitumen Primer for the best key.
