Newton 501 Slimline

Screed floors have variable drying times and it is difficult to ascertain when they are completely dry to accept flooring finishes. With Newton Slimline the problem is eradicated as the membrane allows the screed beneath to achieve vapour equalization whilst allowing the required floor finish to be laid directly above it on a dry surface. The result is a dry floor giving good thermal and sound resistance.

This membrane is thicker than conventional DPMs and has the added advantage of being able to marry up to Newton Newlath 2000 & Newton System 500.

Newton Slimline is a tough resistant membrane that allows damp to move through the structure whilst giving a dry and slightly cushioned surface. It has a greater capacity of vapour resistance than traditional damp proofing membrane systems and can withstand scratches and grazes from rough screed.

Please Note: Newton 508 (8mm stud DPM) and Newton 520 (20mm stud DPM) can also be used as flooring membranes in situations where there is aggressive groundwater situations. Please see the flooring membranes section of our Product List and the Newton System 500 product information page.

• New buildings to protect the flooring finish and the internal environment from damp, radon gas, acids and fungal deterioration.
• Existing buildings when existing floors are to be refurnished protection from dampness, oil, asphalt, chemicals and gases is often needed and in many situations absolutely necessary*.
