Aussie Skin 550G

Aussie Skin 550G

Aussie Skin 550® is a heavy-duty, puncture-resistant sheet waterproofing membrane designed for easy installation. Enhanced with advanced technologies, it achieves strong adhesion to wet concrete or shotcrete. Upon curing, the membrane forms a fully bonded seal to the concrete surface, effectively preventing any potential water migration between the membrane and the substrate.

Where to Use

  • Retaining walls
  • Shotcrete walls
  • Basements
  • Under-slabs
  • Mud-slabs
  • Permanent formwork (e.g., lagging)
  • Existing back-filled structural walls
  • Smoothly prepared concrete substrates
  • Compacted earth or crushed stone substrates

Key Features

  • Permanent Bond to Concrete — Ensures a continuous waterproofing barrier by forming an integral bond with poured concrete.
  • Puncture Resistant — Durable HDPE layer withstands construction-related stresses and protects against damage.
  • Easy Installation — Designed for straightforward application, reducing labor time and costs.
  • Cost-Effective System — Provides long-term waterproofing protection at a competitive price.
