- Applications Type
BITUTHENE® 2000 is a combination of a high density polyethylene film and a self-adhesive rubber/ bitumen compound.
- Damp proof
- Flexible
- Cold applied
- Blinded hardcore
- Structural concrete slabs
BITUTHENE® 5000, also known as Heavy Duty BITUTHENE, is a waterproofing material incorporating high strength, heat-resistant mesh embedded in a layer of self-adhesive rubberised asphalt. It is supplied in rolls interwound with special release paper which protects the adhesive surface until ready for use and allows easy handling during installation.
- Cold applied
- Flexible
- Robust
- Plazas
- Bridges
- Parking decks
BITUTHENE® 6000 is ideal for waterproofing structural concrete and civil works such as airports, rapid transit systems, power plants, environmental projects and earth sheltered structures and may be used in lieu of BITUTHENE 3000 on basements and substructures that require extra tough waterproofing protection.
- Waterproof
- Cross laminated
- Single layer
- Continuous waterproofing/ tanking system for sub-structures and civil works
BITUTHENE® 6000 EIM is composed of a tough, cross-laminated polyethylene film, backed by a self-adhesive rubberised asphalt compound, all of which components provide high resistance to the passage of direct or alternating current.
- Cross-laminated film
- Cold applied
- Flexible
- Designed as a waterproofing membrane for concrete structures, possesses excellent electrical insulation properties
BITUTHENE® 8000 / 8000 HC Waterproofing Membrane combines the proven BITUTHENE adhesive technology with a unique, grey-coloured carrier film to provide superior performance and easier installation.
- Water and moisture proof
- Gas-resistant
- Non-metalised film
- Designed to be used horizontally or vertically to protect basements and other critical sub-structures from the effects of water, damp and gas penetration
BITUTHENE® CP is a 1.5mm thick flexible, preformed waterproof membrane comprising a HDPE polyethylene film and a thick self-adhesive rubber/bitumen compound.
- Chemically-resistant
- Single layer
- Cold-applied
- Flexible
- The membrane has been designed and specially formulated to withstand high ambient temperatures.
BITUTHENE® Mastic is a rubberised, asphalt-based mastic. It has excellent adhesion to structural concrete, masonry and wood. The VOC (Volatile Organic Compound) content is 200g / L.
- Excellent adhesion
- Seals terminations, edges of patches and overlaps in detail areas
- Designed to seal terminations, edges of patches and overlaps in detail areas
BITUTHENE® 3000/3000 HC is a high performance, cold-applied, flexible, preformed waterproof membrane combining a special high performance, cross-laminated, HDPE carrier film with a unique self-adhesive rubber bitumen compound.
- Waterproof
- High density, cross-laminated polyethylene film
- Single layer
- Gas-resistant
- Basement
- Sub-structures
- Flat decks
SOLARSHIELD™ is a robust, cold-applied, self-adhesive, heavily textured aluminium membrane which can be used as a conformable solar reflective flashing or protection for exposed roofing membranes.
- Aluminum sheet
- High purity aluminium
- No naked flame system
- Flashing

- Fillet and reinforcement material at inside corners
- Flashing material around drains, protrusions, curbs and parapets
- Sealing material at terminations
Flexible and powerful
Bituthene® is available in a number of grades to suit your project needs. Supplied as an easily-applied sheet, It can be cold-applied at temperatures as low as 25°F, and can be placed on a variety of concrete surfaces. Its robust waterproofing properties, combined with its ease of application, results in a contractor-friendly product that adds value to buildings.
Apply easily, anywhere
Although the chemical properties of Bituthene® make it suitable for a variety of applications, we have added mechanical innovations to further its ease of use and long-term viability.
- Ripcord® design lets workers easily split release liner for ease of positioning
- Cold-applied membrane avoids risk of fire during installation due to the fact that flame and/or hot works are not required
- Self-adhesive overlaps avoid leaky seams and eliminate the need for specialised equipment or training.
- When used with primer, Bituthene® can easily be applied to damp or green concrete during time-sensitive construction, saving time and money for the project team.
Unparalleled water protection
Buildings change and settle over time, but Bituthene® accommodates those changes.
- Robust film and specially formulated adhesive provide maximum water protection
- Flexible yet strong membrane provides crack bridging capabilities and moves with concrete, accommodating minor settling
- Controlled thickness ensures lack of variation
Get world-class technical services
With so many versatile applications, there’s a Bituthene® solution for nearly every project and design. We provides world-class technical services in order to make those limits even smaller.
