Description
TRI-GEL is a water based damp-proofing treatment for walls affected by rising
dampness. TRI-GEL is injected into the mortar bed between bricks, stones or
blocks via horizontally drilled holes to form a continuous barrier to the
passage of moisture from the ground. The UNIQUE formulation allows faster
injection without the need for electric d.p.c. pumps. Being water based and
water soluble,
TRI-GEL is able to diffuse naturally into damp substrates. After injection,
TRI-GEL reacts to form a water-repellent Silicone resin network within the
capillaries of the substrate. This network is permeable to water vapour which
means that the walls can “breathe” and dry out naturally.
TRI-GEL is injected into
12mm diameter holes; drilled horizontally into the chosen mortar bed at
100-120mm centres or at the perp joint, mortar bed junction (brickwork). See
