About this product
The ToughSheet DPC Damp Proof Course Membrane offers a robust solution for protecting your home from rising damp, designed to meet demanding construction standards. This BBA-approved membrane is ideal for installers seeking a reliable and efficient damp proof course material, particularly those working on standard cavity wall installations where the 600mm width is perfectly suited.
This roll comes in a generous 30m length, significantly reducing the number of joins required when installing along a wall run – a key benefit that saves time and ensures a more consistent barrier against moisture penetration. The membrane adheres to BS 6515:1984 standards, guaranteeing its performance as a damp proof course.
Available in a range of widths, including 100mm, 112mm, 150mm, 300mm, 450mm and 600mm, this ToughSheet product offers flexibility for various project sizes. Careful measurement is essential before ordering, as the different width options cater to diverse needs. The 600mm width is particularly well-suited for typical damp course installations, but other widths within the range can be selected depending on the specific requirements of your project. A roll measuring 600mm wide and 30m long provides a substantial amount of material to cover longer wall runs.
