Transparent HDPE Damp-Proofing Membrane with Mesh Face for Direct Plaster Finishes

Biokil Crown 3mm Meshed Membrane Clear is a high-quality cavity drainage and damp-proofing membrane manufactured from clear, high-density polyethylene (HDPE), with a pre-bonded mesh surface to accept direct plaster or render. Designed for above-ground internal applications, it isolates damp, salt-contaminated, or friable masonry from internal finishes, providing a long-lasting solution for damp-proofing and wall restoration in refurbishment, heritage, or domestic projects.
