What Is An Urban Drainage Geomembrane?

An urban drainage geomembrane is an impervious layer of polymers used for water storage. It provides an underlay and protection so the liquid cannot become contaminated. These are best suited to applications such as underground stormwater storage systems, or permeable paving systems.

Manufactured in the UK by Visqueen and stocked by Precon Products, these high performance protective membranes can be installed for systems which have very high hydrostatic pressures. The polymers used ensure impermeability across the lifespan of the system.

The Visqueen Ecomembrane DPM

The Visqueen EcoMembrane DPM damp proof laminate is a blown film of extruded low-density polyethylene. This can be used for constructional applications as a Type A damp proof layer and is highly tear resistant which helps to reduce damage during on-site application. It is manufactured from 100% post-use waste, that is where the waste-producing use did not involve the production of another product. It is available in three thicknesses: 0.25mm (4m x 25m) , 0.3mm (4m x 25m) and 0.5mm (4m x 12.5m).

Visqueen Protect & Drain System

Visqueen Protect & Drain is an external water management solution for the construction industry. It consists of a geotextile filter membrane which is thermally bonded to a cuspated, or angular shaped, high-density polyethylene resin core. Whilst it is quick to install it retains a high puncture resistance, and has an upper level flow capacity which can help to alleviate hydrostatic pressure on subterranean ground structures.

Visqueen Self Adhesive DPM

Manufactured to high quality standards, Visqueen self adhesive membrane is a British Board of Agrément accredited waterproofing system. It can be used as a damp proof or tanking membrane for both vertical and horizontal applications in the building and construction sector. It is designed to prevent the admittance of water and associated water-borne alkalis present in some forms concrete and mortar. This tough, high density polyethylene solution can be used for above and below ground applications.

Visqueen Gas Protection Membrane

As part of its mainline portfolio, Precon Products can supply Visqueen's high performance low permeability gas membrane. This offers protection for buildings constructed in environments where low levels of methane and carbon dioxide are of concern. The low permeability gas membrane is a sturdy co-polymer thermoplastic membrane. It is a flexible product and easy to install. Also a suitable alternative as a damp proof membrane.
