Beyem Proof Flexible

BEYEM PROOF FLEXIBLE is a two-component, cement based, polymer modified flexible membrane for concrete surface protection and waterproofing. Formulated with special cements, selected aggregates, organic additives and resins to improve adhesion and waterproofing. Specially suitable for  containing water. Approved for potable water contact. Specially suitable for applications subject to small movements, when flexibility is a must and for use beneath ceramic tiling bonded with adhesives.

• Modified polymer mortar (PCC).
• Excellent  adhesion.
• High flexibility.
• Rapid drying.
• Waterproof up to 7,5 atm of pressure positive lift.
• Suitable for spray machines and manual applications (by brush or thin trowel).
• Waterproof and permeable to water vapour. Fast hardening without cracking.
• Both internal and external use.
• Weather resistant.
• High protection against  the effects of de-icing salts and freeze-thaw attack.
• High crack-bridging ability at very low temperature (-20ºC).
• CM02P class according  EN14891.

Concrete surface protection according to the MC and RI principles: Moisture Control (MC) by surface coating and Increasing Resistivity (IR) by limiting moisture content. Liquid applied water impermeable cement product (CM) for use beneath ceramic tiling bonded with adhesives with crack-bridging ability at very low temperature (02)  and resistant to chlorinated water (P). Waterproofing of foundations, basement walls, cellars, concrete slabs, walls, tanks, swimming pools, cellars, planters, lift pits, balconies, terraces, bathrooms, showers… Protection of buildings against water damage. Waterproofing of substrates that can undergo small movements or with little cracks (BEYEM PROOF FLEXIBLE absorbs micro-cracks).

BEYEM PROOF  FLEXIBLE  is suitable for:

• Concrete 
• Cement based substrates
• Rendering and plastering mortar
• BEYEM’s concrete repair mortars 

Substrates must be free from dust, loose material, surface contamination and materials which reduce  bond or prevent suction or wetting  by repair materials. Where necessary, concrete  must be cleaned by sandblasting, high pressure water jetting or other approved mechanical methods that do not cause vibration or impact, to leave a clean and keyed surface.  Absorbent substrates should be previously wetted until they are saturated, preventing waterlogging, and applying the mortar  once the surface has a matt appearance. Smooth, slightly absorbent or very damaged substrates should be treated to obtain a surface with minimum guarantees of roughness and tensile strength. For more information regarding concrete substrate preparation, refer to the recommendations provided in EN 1504-10.

BEYEM PROOF FLEXIBLE is presented in adequate proportions of its two components. Pour the component B (liquid) into a clean container and add the component A (powder) little by little. Mix until a homogeneous and lump-free paste is obtained.  Let the mix stand for 5 minutes before application.

Apply a minimum of 2 layers  by spray render or by hand (using a trowel o brush) pressing the material  to ensure adhesion. The second layer (and successive ones) can be applied in the same way, once the first layer has dried (from 2 to 6 hours, depending on the environmental conditions). If the final thickness has to exceed 4 mm, 3 layers of product should be applied. It is advisable to apply the successive layers in perpendicular directions and avoid the accumulation of more material than is necessary in the corners or joints between vertical and horizontal  elements. It is recommended embedding  BEYEM MALLA 160 gr alkali-resistant reinforcement mesh in the first coat of BEYEM PROOF FLEXIBLE while it is still wet. The mesh must also be used in areas with either small cracks or in areas which are under particular stress.

• Do not apply below 8ºC or above 30ºC.
• Do not apply when there is risk of frost, rain, strong wind or direct sunlight.
• Do not vary the mixing ratio of the components.
• Critical areas  as fillen joints between vertical and horizontal  elements must be treated with a dry mortar to minimize the application angle of BEYEM PROOF FLEXIBLE.
• If the surfaces waterproofed with BEYEM PROOF FLEXIBLE can suffer strong mechanical aggression, they should be covered with some protective element such as ceramic tiles, etc.)
• Sealing of structural joints and joints subject to high dynamic stress may require special pieces.
• Apply preferably on the positive side, that is, on the one that receives the water pressure.
• Applied on negative side, there are risk of detachment if  water pressure is higher than adhesion of material.
• Protect the mortar applied of early dehydration, using suitable  curing methods. The curing operation in humid environment is essential for at least 24 hours after application.
• Do not apply on gypsum, metal or wood.
• Mix only sufficient material that can be applied  using available labour and equipment.
• BEYEM PROOF FLEXIBLE must cure for a minimum of  3-7 days before receiving mechanical loads.
• Water pressure loadable after 7-14 days

BEYEM PROOF FLEXIBLE is packed  in pre-measured batches of 32 kg (24 kg plastic lined paper bags – Component A-  and 8,0 kg plastic bottle – Component B-). Boxes of three units of 5 Kg (Component A) and three plastic  bottles  of 1.7 l (Component B).

Storage: when stored unopened in a cool dry place, shelf life is 12 months from date of manufacture.

Tools can be cleaned easily with water before the product hardens. Hardened product can be removed only mechanically.

Surface protection of concrete and waterproofing must be carried out with  two-component, cement based, polymer modified flexible membrane compliant with EN 14891 and EN 1504-2 and according to Principle 2, method 2.2 and  Principle 8, method 8.2 of  EN 1504-9, such as Beyem Proof Flexible , manufactured by Rodacal Beyem Company. Coverage will be  ≈ 1,5 kg / m² per mm of thickness.
