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

Product Information

Dryzone has a number advantages over conventional chemical injection damp-proofing systems for both the contractor and the householder: avoided when treating rising damp on heritage projects. How does the Dryzone System differ from other rising damp treaments? In fact the final Dryzone formulation met or exceeded all of the design criteria that were set at the concept stage.

However, it was still used in conjunction with an industry standard sand:cement replastering system that was slow and expensive to install, was unpopular with homeowners and heritage bodies and could often result in a cold wall surface that could be vulnerable to condensation. The effectiveness of Dryzone has been verified under a wide range of test conditions by independent test houses around the world. Test conditions examined include: Flaking paint, peeling wallpaper, a “musty” odour, and timber decay are among the most common symptoms of rising damp. Failure to treat rising damp properly can result in a house that is unpleasant to live in and difficult to sell, so it is important to choose an effective method of treatment. Dryzone Damp-proofing Cream

Get it right the first time!

Eliminates the need to introduce large volumes of liquid carrier into the wall. Dryzone is over four times stronger than many competing products. The active ingredient contained within the rods spreads through, and bonds with, sand;cement mortar. Any continuous mortar line that has been properly treated with Dryrod Damp-Proofing Rods becomes a damp-proof course. Due to the unique formulation of active ingredient allowed by the design of the rods, a Dryrod treatment is over 4 times more effective than the next best treatment method. How Dryrod is Applied Launched in 2000, Dryzone Damp-Proofing Cream has caused a revolution in the treatment of rising damp. Dryzone 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.

Independent tests demonstrate that Dryzone provides a more effective barrier to rising damp than competing products. Dryzone damp-proofing cream to treat rising damp: solvent-free, patented and the best performing rising damp treatment on the market

Datasheets

Dryzone is a special silicone based damp proof injection cream that treats and protects against rising damp. It is introduced along the mortar course at regular intervals by injecting it into pre-drilled holes. Dryzone then diffuses before curing to form a continuous water-repellent barrier, preventing rising damp and creating a damp proof course. For heritage projects, or where replastering needs to be minimised Dryzone Renovation Plasters should be used. For Rising Damp treatment

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: Technologists at Safeguard realised that a concentrated “cream” formulation would overcome many of the problems associated with traditional damp-proofing systems. Ideally, such a system would not have to be injected at high pressure into the wall and would be able to deliver the correct level of active ingredient into the wall in a single pass. However, to offer a true breakthrough in rising damp treatment, it would have to meet some challenging design criteria: The coverage rate will vary depending upon the roughness and absorbency of the surface, use as a guide only.

Drygrip Adhesive Properties

In-house and independent tests demonstrate that Dryzone is considerably more effective than look-alike products at controlling rising damp. This is not surprising when you consider that Dryzone contains over 60% active ingredient (active silicones) whereas many look-alike products contain as little as 10% active ingredient.
