VISQUEEN PROVIDES SPECIALIST WATERPROOFING SOLUTIONFOR BANNER HOMESThanks to its ability to offer expert advice, reliable delivery and access to market leading products, SIG Bradford has been involved in a £multi-million project to build a new primary school on the former infant school site.

The Oasis Academy Watermead - which is currently being constructed in the Shirecliffe area of Sheffield – will eventually become a mainstream community school offering over 420 places.

The damp proofing requirements of the new building’s site called for some equally specialist solutions with regards to structural waterproofing. That’s why SIG Bradford teamed up with one of the leading experts in the field - Visqueen Building Products.

With over 50 years of experience and a strong reputation for technical expertise, Visqueen is a European market leader in the production of structural waterproofing and ground gas protection systems.

The business offers a complete product range which includes damp proof membranes, damp proof courses, tanking membranes, gas barriers and gas venting systems. It also prides itself on complementing these products with unrivalled levels of service and on site technical support.

To meet the needs of the Oasis Academy Watermead project, SIG Bradford made full use of Visqueen’s technical knowledge and extensive product range. The branch supplied a number of different products including Visqueen High Performance DPM - the manufacturer’s premium grade damp proof membrane.

Product Visqueen High Performance DPM

Benefits Excellent in heavy duty raft foundations, alongside steel reinforced slabs.

Due for completion November 2014

This product is ideal for use in heavy duty raft foundations, alongside steel reinforced slabs and for any application where a robust and especially durable membrane is required. Its ability to offer ultimate damp proofing protection has been independently certified by leading testing organisations - including the BBA - providing users with complete peace of mind.

Other Visqueen products supplied by SIG Bradford included Visqueen Self-Adhesive Membrane - a BBA Accredited self-adhesive product which can be used as a tanking or damp proof membrane for both horizontal and vertical applications. The Oasis Academy Watermead is due for completion in November 2014.

In particular, Banner Homes was attracted to Zedex High Bond DPC because of its ability to be torch bonded. Designed specifically for use on parapet or coping stone applications, the waterproofing system uses homogenously sealed laps to provide an effective and multi-directional leak proof seal.

In line with its commitment to providing the best products backed by the highest levels of service and support, Visqueen Building Products also supplied technical advisors to help oversee the installation. These advisors were on hand throughout the process to provide practical guidance and expert advice.

Speaking of Banner Homes’ decision to use Visqueen Zedex High Bond DPC at its Verney Road development, Cameron Yates, Product Manager at manufacturer Visqueen Building Products, said: “Visqueen prides itself on being able to offer a complete range of structural waterproofing and gas protection systems, with products available to meet the needs of any given project.

“For its development on Verney Road, Banner Homes wanted a DPC that could perform in the face of particularly challenging circumstances. Our comprehensive range allowed us to accommodate that requirement with a solution that addresses specific challenges whilst delivering very specific benefits.”
