SCUDOX, the dimpled waterproof membrane

SCUDOX is a dimpled waterproof membrane made of HDPE (high density polyethylene) suited for waterproofing buried walls or foundations in contact with the ground.

The dimpled membrane is laid down on the surface of the walls and allows a total separation between the walls, both in concrete and in masonry, and the moisture of the ground. SCUDOX also work as protection from the plant roots present in the ground.



Thanks to the over 1,850 depressions per square meter, SCUDOX forms an air volume of 5.5 l/sqm against the walls permitting an optimal ventilation to remove moisture and humidity.

The dimpled membrane is easy and fast to install: unroll it with the depressions facing away from the wall and fix it to the substrate without damaging the waterproofing layer. Alternatively, the membrane can be fixed in place by backfilling with soil.





Applications


  • Buried walls
  • Swimming pools
  • Rough foundations
  • Underground ramps
  • Buried fencing walls


Advantages


  • Ensures excellent protection to the waterproofing layer
  • In the underground constructions allows the drainage and the conveyance of water away from the building preserving its structure
  • Available in different heights
  • Made of High Density Polyethylene (HDPE)
  • Over 1,850 dimples per square meter
  • Nondegradable: resistant to chemicals, roots and from bacteria and fungus contamination
  • Does not pollute water bearing groundwater
  • Can be easily nailed or doweled




Installation


INSTALLATION ON BURIED WALLS AND FOUNDATION

  • Apply a waterproofing layer to the wall and foundations
  • Unroll the dimpled membrane with the dimples facing away from the wall
  • Make sure the junction between two rolls perfectly overlaps
  • Adequately secure the dimpled membrane
  • Fill the outside with the required soil

INSTALLATION UNDER ROUGH SLABS

  • Properly compact the ground
  • Lay SCUDOX with the dimples facing up
  • Make sure the junction between two rolls perfectly overlaps
  • Lay the wire mesh and proceed with the concrete pour
