Five Star Uncoupling Membrane

Uncoupling membrane for tile installations.

-Provides uncoupling through its open rib structure, which allows for in-plane movement that effectively neutralizes the differential movement stresses between the substrate and the tile, thus eliminating the major cause of cracking and delaminating of the tiled surface.
-Provides reliable waterproofing in interior applications. Its polyethylene composition protects the substrate from moisture penetration, which is particularly important in today's building environment where most substrates are moisture sensitive.
-The existence of free space created by the configured channels on the underside of the matting, provides a route for excess moisture and vapor to escape from the substrate that could otherwise cause damage to the tile layer above.
-Installations support and distribute heavy loads while preserving the integrity of the tiled surface verified through extensive laboratory and field testing, including applications exposed to vehicular traffic.
