Dryzone Damp Proofing Cream Datasheet

Dryzone® Damp-Proofing Cream
Product Description
Dryzone® Damp-Proofing Cream is a silicone cream for
remedial rising damp treatment. The cream is injected into
holes drilled along a mortar bed. Once installed, the high
strength formulation spreads along the mortar before curing to
form a damp-proof course.
Dryzone® Cream’s innovative formula has been optimised

to ensure that it is effective on a wide range of mortar types,
including porous and low-alkalinity mortars typically found in
Victorian buildings.
