TegraTite
Bentonite clay is volcanic ash that expands when wet, absorbing
several times its weight in water. The property of swelling makes
bentonite unique as a sealant for below-grade waterproofing or as a
liner for water retention. The TegraTite membrane combines the
swelling properties of bentonite with the strength and protection of
HDPE sheets to form a self-sealing waterproofing membrane. The
tough HDPE membrane provides the primary waterproofing envelope
while the expandable bentonite clay provides the self-sealing
insurance, even under hydrostatic conditions, necessary for a
complete waterproofing system. Because both the bentonite clay and
the HDPE membrane are known to be very stable below grade, TegraTite
waterproofing is expected to provide long-lasting protection for
your building.
