Chemind Industries' MM6130K Monolithic membrane

The MM6130K Monolithic membrane represents a new era of waterproofing solutions that will transform the way we approach waterproofing projects. This monolithic membrane features innovation of waterproofing today that makes it the ultimate solution for protecting properties against water damage.

A remarkable feature of the MM6130K membrane is a single component thermoplastic material, reducing errors of mixture that often sees in 2 components waterproofing. On top of that, this material is highly durable and performs better in resisting environmental factors compared to other waterproofing materials like torch on membrane.  

The MM6130K membrane is monolithic with no seams or joints that could potentially leak, providing an unparalleled level of protection against water infiltration. This seamless construction makes the MM6130K membrane one of the most effective waterproofing solutions in the market.

MM6130K membrane contains minimum 40% recycled content, making it an eco-friendly choice who aim to reduce the environmental impact. The recycled material does not affect the membrane’s performance and durability, hence a great innovation recycling unused materials to incorporate with construction material.

Furthermore, the MM6130K membrane exhibits it self-healing ability that can detect and repair small leaks or punctures. This feature guarantees that the membrane provides continuous protection against water infiltration, even with minor cracks in the concrete.

The MM6130K membrane is three times thicker than most other waterproofing solutions, providing superior protection against damage from foot traffic, hail, and other environmental factors. This thickness also ensures that the MM6130K membrane will provide long-lasting protection, even in the toughest conditions.
