2. Advantages
CEMtobent DS
CEMtobent DS / DoubleSeal
consists of two complementary
components:
the primary sealing
is a 3D-PE sheet
the secondary sealing
is a a high quality geocomposite
clay liner (GCL)
CEMtobent CS-Plus
CEMtobent CS-Plus / CombiSe
al-Plus consists of three comple
mentary components:
the primary sealing
is a 3D-PE-sheet
the secondary sealing
is a a high quality geocomposite
clay liner (GCL)
An additional PE coated liner
that is radon and root resistant
is bonded to the CEMtobent CS
membrane.
Two designs
High resistant, easy to handle and eco-friendly.
Effective rain-protection.
Can be installed independent of temperatures
and weather conditions.
No welding required.
Continuous quality controls.
Self-healing properties if damaged during
installation.
Shrinkage cracks in the concrete structure
can be sealed.
The large, respectively variable width allows
or little loss of material at the overlappings.
CEMtobent can be used in areas where flowing
groundwater is expected.
CEMtobent CS-Plus is root-resistant and
radon-tight, even under dry conditions!
CEMtobent is a bentonite-based membrane specially
designed for waterproofing and protection of below
ground concrete structures and tunnels.
The CEMtobent membrane is a strong and robust
system that is suitable for use where working conditions
are difficult, giving you the confidence and assurance
that the waterproof membrane will function correctly.
An additional feature is the special rain protection
liner on the CEMtobent membrane that allows it to be
installed in all types of weather.
The active ingredient in the CEMtobent membrane is a
high quality sodium-bentonite powder, which is capable
of swelling up to 8 times its original dry volume. If ground
water comes into contact with the installed CEMtobent
membrane, the sodium-bentonite powder swells and
fills any voids or cracks in the concrete, producing a
watertight structure.
The freshly placed concrete bonds with the CEMtobent
membrane; therefore, the possibility of any water
circulation between the concrete and the membrane is
eliminated.
