Abstract
Relates to a translucent high-density polyethylene (HDPE) membrane for damp-proofing walls, floors and ceilings and as a radon barrier (700 HD only) in new construction or in existing buildings. It forms part of the Newton Membrane System and can be used above or below ground, over a contaminated or damp background, to support a dry lining or flooring. Key factors assessed were resistance to water and water vapour, resistance to salt transfer, properties in relation to fire, resistance to puncture, impact and loading, and durability.
