Dryzone Damp Proofing Cream (DPC) - 310ml - High-Strength Injection Cream for Rising Damp Treatment. BBA & WTA Approved

Product Information

Independent tests demonstrate that Dryzone provides a more effective barrier to rising damp than competing products.

These low levels of active ingredient are even more apparent when shown in the context of the amount of active ingredient introduced into each linear metre of wall: avoided when treating rising damp on heritage projects. How does the Dryzone System differ from other rising damp treaments? Dryzone Damp Proofing Injection Cream in the larger 600ml tube size gets the job done fast and economically. Dryshield Cream is a salt resistant, breathable and water-repellent cream. It is used as a primer for Drygrip Adhesive and as a salt inhibitor on walls that have just been treated for rising damp with Dryzone Damp-Proofing Cream. Why Dryshield is RequiredDryzone Damp-Proofing Cream is a water-based silicone cream that spreads through, and bonds with, sand;cement mortar. Any continuous sand;cement mortar line that has been properly treated with Dryzone becomes a damp-proof course. Due to the fact that it is a high strength cream, Dryzone delivers over 5 times more active ingredient to a wall, over a wider area, than other low strength competitors, making it longer lasting and more effective. How Dryzone is Applied For heritage projects, or where replastering needs to be minimised Dryzone Renovation Plasters should be used. For Rising Damp treatment Drygrip Adhesive to fix plasterboard: creates a durable bond to masonry that's strongly salt and moisture resistant

Active rising damp was established by submerging the bottom of the pillars in water to a depth of 25mm for a period of three weeks. At this point two of the pillars were treated with Dryzone and another two were treated using a conventional chemical treatment. A further two pillars were left untreated as controls. The pillars were kept wet for a further three weeks before being allowed to dry out for 9-months. Water was then re-introduced to the bottom of the pillars and measurements were taken to establish water uptake following treatment. The lower the water uptake, the better the formulation is at controlling rising damp. Dryzone damp-proofing cream to treat rising damp: solvent-free, patented and the best performing rising damp treatment on the market Furthermore, Dryzone’s unique formulation causes these active ingredients to spread further in the wall – providing a more even and complete rising damp treatment. The difference between the spread characteristics of Dryzone and look-alike products can be illustrated using a simple spread test: Most modern properties are built with a damp-proof course. Some properties, however, were built with no damp proof course, or the original DPC has failed, meaning that rising damp occurs and it is necessary to make remedial repairs. Older pressure injection techniques for treating rising damp are time consuming, complicated and expensive. Dryzone Damp-Proofing Cream is the fast, clean and effective method of rising damp treatment. What Dryzone DoesDryzone damp-proofing cream revolutionised the treatment of rising damp when it was launched in 2000. It was faster to install, less messy, and provided a more reliable barrier to rising damp than conventional damp-proofing systems.
