RIW Tilesafe

Here at CCL Wetrooms we have designed a self-adhesive waterproof membrane that is used prior to the application of ceramic tiles and natural Stone onto Timber and solid floors in wetrooms. RIW Tilesafe comprises a self-adhesive cold applied waterproof membrane which consists of a thick rubberised waterproof layer incorporating a woven Glass fibre mesh on one side. It is quick and easy to apply, providing a consistent waterproof layer that is guaranteed not to leak. RIW Tilesafe will also act as an effective de-coupling membrane by uncoupling the Floor Tiles and accommodating movement in the substrate. The membrane acts as an acoustic barrier and will improve the sound impact insulation value (∆Lw) of a wetroom typical floor assembly by 11dB. The tests were conducted in accordance with BS EN ISO 140-8 with the results (∆L) rated in accordance with BS EN ISO 717-2
