Tile Decoupling Mat/Membrane

5-30sqm Rolls

[PREVENT MOVEMENT UNCOUPLING OF TILES / CRACK SURPRESSION FROM MOVEMENT]  Anti-crack matting suppresses any movement and/or cracks in the substrate, in particular heated screeds and timber (OSB/plywood/floorboards) which are often subject to lateral movement's thus isolating the 2 layers allowing them to move independently thus preventing the transmission of lateral stresses to the floor often seen with cracks in tiles, grout or unbonding of the entire tile

[EVEN HEAT DISTRIBUTION] No more hot/cold spots with under floor heating, the 3.6mm membrane guarantees guarantees even heat even distributed by the membranes channels when used in combination with wet / electrical underfloor heating systems avoiding the need to raise the sub-floor

[WATERPROOFING IDEAL FOR WETROOMS, BATHROOMS & KITCHENS] Reliable waterproof matting made of polyethylene composite, protecting both the substrate / base from the infiltration of water (ie, timber floors) - no more stains and wet spots on ceilings from failed tiles, as well as further improving the durability 

[VAPOUR CONTROL - FREE AIRLFLOW] Double layered membrane both top and bottom contains air channels for airfree circulation, thus allowing the surface to breath & allows moisture in the underlying layers to be released which wouldotherwise cause damage to the tile layer above, thus making the rapid mat suitable for damp environments and early stage concrete

[SUPPORT / LOAD DISTRIBUTION] Practically incompressible and thus able to support and distribute heavy loads while maintaining tile surface integrity

[EASY TO INSTALL & ENHANCED TILE ADHESION] 1m Wide rolls of 5m/30m making it easy to carry, store & transport, cuts with a simple utility knife / scissors and simply   butt the edges of the matt together in rows without the need for extra joining tape, the uncoupling mats highly engineered design made up of a mortise and tenon embossed pattern creates and even and durable mechanical bond betweenceramics or tiles and the membrane
