Pros

• BBA-approved DPC membrane meets BS 6515:1984 for damp proof courses
• 600mm width suits standard cavity wall damp course installation
• 30m roll length reduces the number of joins needed along a wall run

Cons

• Fast-drying, brush, roller or spray-applied damp-proof waterproofing membrane
• Suitable for masonry both above and below ground level
• Solvent-free, non-toxic formula is safer to use in occupied rooms
