Watertight Membrane

A watertight membrane acts as a waterproof barrier, preventing the entry of water to protect buildings from moisture-related damage.

What is a Watertight Membrane?

Watertight membranes, including airtightness membranes, which can include vapour control layers (vcl / avcl), breather membranes and EPAM window and door seals, all play a crucial role in construction and waterproofing, offering several advantages over alternative solutions:


  • Waterproof Protection: Watertight membranes, including tanking membranes, create an effective barrier against water infiltration, preventing moisture-related damage to structures.

  • Durability: Manufacturers design these membranes to withstand environmental elements, providing long-lasting protection.

  • Versatility: They are suitable for various applications, from roofs and foundations to walls and basements.

  • Reduced Maintenance: Properly installed watertight membranes require minimal maintenance, saving time and effort.

  • Energy Efficiency: Some membranes offer thermal insulation, contributing to a building's energy efficiency.

  • Customisation: Water tight membranes can be tailored to meet specific construction needs, and they come in various materials.

  • Regulatory Compliance: Manufacturers ensure that their products comply with local building codes and regulations related to moisture control and waterproofing.


Overall, watertight membranes offer effective, long-lasting waterproofing solutions that protect structures, require minimal maintenance, and often contribute to energy efficiency. This makes them advantageous in various construction applications.
