Description

This mat acts as a decoupling membrane, effectively isolating the tiled surface from the substrate, ensuring stability and preventing damage from movement. Additionally, it serves as a waterproof layer when used with tape, a significant advantage when tiling over water-sensitive substrates like timber.

Versatile and reliable, it's suitable for wet rooms, steam rooms, and bathrooms, acting as a waterproof barrier when used with Durabase tape. Plus, DURA Original is resistant to diluted acids, alkalines and salt solutions, making it a robust choice for your tile projects. Its normal flammability rating, high electrical resistivity, and easy disposal further enhance its appeal.

Installation

Apply a suitable primer to the surface where DURA Original is to be used, if it is required.
Trim the DURA Original mats to the required size.
Apply the Ultimate flexible S2 adhesive evenly to the surface using a trowel with notches measuring about 4mm (0.16 inches) in width.
Place the DURA Original mats with the white fleece facing downwards onto the freshly applied adhesive, and then evenly press them using the flat side of the trowel.
Apply Durabase sealing tape to seal the seams between the mats.
Thoroughly coat the upper surface of the mats with flexible adhesive. Afterwards, create a textured adhesive surface using an appropriately sized notched trowel (the trowel depends on the size of the tile), and finally, position the tiles on top.
Finally, apply either flexible or standard grout to fill the gaps between the tiles.
