EuroProof DPC 421

Bitumen Modified Damp Proof Course

EuroProof DPC 421 is heavy duty bituminous
damp proof membrane.

Uses

 Recommended to use horizontal or vertical

dam proof course applications.

 DPM provides a barrier to the passage of

moisture or water from the exterior and interior
to the interior or from the ground water to the
structure.

Advantages

 Excellent vapour barrier for concrete and

masonry structures.

 Effective water proofing, weatherproofing and

corrosion protection.

 Prevents substantial movements

 Resistant to chloride and sulphate ions.

 Excellent adhesion to most common building Application Instruction

substrates.
EuroProof DPC 421 is introduced at the
 The special chemical modification gives construction stage i.e. during the erection of the
excellent flexibility brickwork, block work or masonry walls using
traditional building construction methods.
 High puncture and tear resistance.
The DPC must extend through the full wall
thickness and it should be laid on an even bed or
Properties mortar. Overlapping the material to the same width
of the damp proof course or 10 cm minimum
including sealing forms laps.
Thickness 1.5 & 3 mm
The method of laying, jointing and forming cavity
Width 100, 150, 200, 250 & 300 mm trays should be in accordance with relevant
building codes of practice.
Roll Length 10 & 15 mtr. roll
EuroProof DPC 421 is fully compactable with most
Weight/m2 >4 Kg (3 mm Thickness) of bituminous membranes to provide a moisture
