Description

GCP Protection 03 is a robust asphaltic protective board specifically engineered to shield self-adhesive waterproofing membranes from mechanical damage caused by backfill, site operations and construction traffic. Its high heat resistance allows reliable use in elevated temperature environments, and its puncture and impact resistance holds up at +35°C and +50°C, making it suitable for a wide range of site conditions.

Benefits

High heat resistance, tested to +150°C (EN 1110)
High puncture resistance, protects membranes from sharp stones and debris during backfilling
High impact resistance, withstands dropped tools and construction traffic
Supports static loads without deformation
Easy to install butt fitted edge to edge

Good to know

Maximum UV exposure is 30 days.
On vertical walls, backfill should be completed as soon as possible after installation
To locate boards, prime five 150 mm x 150 mm ‘patches’ (one in each corner, and one in the middle) of each board with suitable GCP Primer and allow to dry. Apply Bitustik™ 4000 150 mm double sided bitumen tape to the primed strips.
