Durabit EF
water based, polymer emulsion waterproofing membrane.
Durabit EF (EF is for Extra Flexible ) is a water-based, polymer emulsion waterproofing membrane. It has been tested by CSIRO (report 2947) and meets the criteria of AS4858:2004 Wet Area Membranes. Durabit EF is an elastomeric, environmentally friendly membrane designed for both internal and (non-exposed) external applications. It cures to form a durable, odourless, impervious, seamless membrane that resists re-emulsifying after it has fully, even if immersed in water. Durabit EF, available in white, black, grey and blue, does not stain grout or tiles and has excellent resistance to hydrostatic pressure.
