The new range of Aquaflex waterproofing tapes from International Trading and Consulting (ITC) offers a complete, long term waterproofing system for corners and joints in areas such as bathrooms, showers, kitchens, facades, and balconies.
In the building industry, it is well known that waterproofing related problems account for over 80% of building defect complaints. Building movement, from vibrations, temperature changes, or the building settling into foundations, often causes cracks in walls and floors of wet areas around corners and joints, leading to undesirable water leaks.
Aquaflex waterproofing tape can expand up to 170%, so even if cracks appear many years after the building has been completed, the corners and joints remain waterproof, since the waterproofing tape remains intact.
Aquaflex waterproofing tape can be used indoors or outdoors during construction to:
- Waterproof wall/floor joints
- Waterproof penetrations through walls/floors
- Waterproof corner intersections of surfaces
Benefits of using Aquaflex waterproofing tape:
- Safe and easy to use
- Withstands extreme heat and cold
- Excellent chemical resistance
- Long term waterproofing protection, even after cracks appear in corners and joints
- Saves building owners money from not having to repair water damaged areas
