The SUPERSEAL Solution

SUPERSEAL Dimpled Membrane is fast becoming the preferred choice for the waterproofing of insulated concrete forms. SUPERSEAL Dimpled Membrane can be fastened on any type of insulated concrete form quickly and easily in any weather condition. If the membrane is applied on a rainy day or if moisture or water does get behind SUPERSEAL Dimpled Membrane during the application, it will not matter. SUPERSEAL's air gap allows moisture or water to escape to the drain tile for removal. This guaranteed waterproofing system keeps the wet soil off the face of the foundation wall and eliminates 100% of the hydrostatic headwater pressure. It also provides the entire foundation with a permanent barrier against moisture or water from entering your basement. SUPERSEAL Dimpled Membrane allows your insulated concrete forms to effectively insulate your home and continually save you money.
