BIOKIL. BioBase – Liquid Applied DPM

BIOKIL. BioBase Liquid Applied DPM is a ready-to-use, water-based, single-pack damp-proof and gas-resistant membrane for above-ground applications, available in 5L and 20L. It forms a flexible and elastic coating once cured and is suitable for solid floors, embedded timbers and floor-to-wall junctions. It can be applied to damp (but not wet) substrates by brush, roller or spray, and is touch-dry in around one hour. Provides a barrier to damp, radon, carbon dioxide and methane.

Key benefits

  • Damp-proof barrier
  • Radon, methane & CO₂ gas barrier
  • Water-based single pack (ready to use)
  • Easy brush, roller or spray application

Typical applications

  • Solid concrete floors and screeds (cured at least 28 days)
  • Embedded timbers and floor-to-wall junctions
  • Low-level wall application up to the DPC (typically under 100mm)
  • Preparation under laminate floors
  • Refurbishment and new-build projects

Application

  • Stir well before use
  • Apply 2 coats by brush, roller or airless spray, each coat 0.55 L/m²
  • Apply the second coat at right angles to the first once touch-dry (approx. 1 hour); do not leave more than 24 hours between coats
  • Minimum 0.6mm dry film thickness for vapour barrier performance
  • Do not apply below 7°C; ensure good ventilation
  • Colour change from blue to black indicates drying

Limitations

  • Not a trafficable/wearing surface
  • Must not be exposed to direct sunlight externally
  • Not suitable for negative water pressure (e.g. basements)
  • Do not directly bond wood flooring to BioBase-coated concrete

  • Resistance: 20m head (positive pressure)
  • Water vapour permeability: < 4 g/m²/24h @ 25°C / 75% RH
  • Radon barrier at 2mm dry film; methane resistance 10× LDPE
  • Tensile strength 4 N/mm²; elongation at break 350%
