Basement Waterproofing Membrane Kits: 

Platinum Chemicals supply a wide range of Complete Basement Waterproofing Membrane Kits, which include a roll of Studded Basement Waterproof Membrane complete with Fixing Plugs and Sealing Tape(s). We stock a huge variety of Waterproof Membranes and Drainage Products manufactured to the highest quality.

These products fall into the category of 'Type C' Waterproofing.

Type C Waterproofing

Type C Waterproofing Protection manages water that penetrates the external shell of a structure, by collecting it in a cavity formed between the external wall and an internal lining/wall.

There is permanent reliance on this cavity to collect groundwater seepage and direct it to a suitable discharge point, e.g. drains or a sump for removal by gravity drainage or mechanical pumping.

New construction generally incorporates a cavity drain membrane, however the use of other products and techniques, such as drained voids constructed in masonry, can also be considered.

Traditionally, the cavity in floor construction has been formed by the use of either no-fines concrete or ceramic tile systems. These are rarely used in new construction, but might be encountered when refurbishing existing structures.

Our Full Range of Basement Waterproof Membranes

Platinum CV Range

The Platinum 'CV' Range is our own brand of High Quality Basement Waterproof Membranes. We have a number of membranes in our range from 3mm Stud to 20mm Stud.

Platon Range

The 'Platon' Range from Isola consists of two High Quality Membranes.

Platon P8, a BBA Approved 8mm Studded Basement Waterproof Membrane manufactured from High Density Polyethylene and is impermeable to water, water vapour or Radon gas. 

The other, Platon Plaster Base, is a 'unique' BBA Approved Membrane which is also suitable for applications above ground level, as well as in Basements. What makes Platon Plaster Base unique is that even though there is no meshed surface, it CAN still be plastered, rendered or dot-and-dabbed directly onto. This is down to the 'dovetail' shaped undercut stud which acts as a superb physical key for application of the above materials.

Newton 500 Range

The 'Newton 500' Range from Newton Membranes is a wide range of Premium Quality BBA Approved Basement Waterproof Membranes, all part of the Newton CDM (Formerly Newton System 500), a Type C waterproofing system that includes BBA Certified membranes, drainage channels, pumping systems and pumping ancillaries specifically designed for waterproofing earth retaining structures against water from the ground.

Wykamol 'CM' Range

New to our range of Basement Waterproof Membranes is the Wykamol Range. The Wykamol Range of Cavity Drain Membranes are high quality, structural waterproofing membranes, with a choice of stud height for different drainage capacities and applications. All Wykamol Basement Waterproofing Membranes are BBA Approved.
