Platinum Chemicals stock the Full Range of Wykamol 'Type C' BBA Approved Cavity Drain Waterproof Membranes and ancillary products.
The Wykamol Range of Cavity Drain Membranes are high quality, structural waterproofing materials, with a choice of stud height for different drainage capacities and applications.
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.
Wykamol CM8 Waterproof Membrane is a High Quality, 8mm Stud Cavity Drain Membrane suitable for the waterproofing of earth retained Walls, Floors and Vaulted Soffits below ground level (i.e in Basements).

Wykamol Membrane Sealing Tape is a high quality, 2mm thick, double sided butyl tape used to attach 2 sheets of Waterproof Tanking Membrane together on walls or on floors along the flange where they overlap.
Wykamol Sealing Rope is used to wrap around the head of Fixing Plugs when installing Damp Proof Membranes and Basement Waterproof Membranes to provide a waterproof seal round the head of the fixing, Wykamol Sealing Rope can also be used to form a jointing waterproof seal on wall and floor membrane systems.
Wykamol Corner Strip Tape is a Heavy Duty, 1.2mm Thick membrane sealing tape with many uses. It is most commonly used to seal Waterproof Tanking Membranes from walls to floors and fixing Perimeter Drainage Channels. Wykamol Corner Strip Tape can also be used to overtape external joints and for oversealing on Floor Membranes.
