Product Information

Full details

The Pegdev 1200G Blue Heavy Duty Polythene Sheeting is designed for construction professionals, landscapers, and DIY enthusiasts who require a robust, moisture-resistant barrier for site protection and material separation. Its primary benefit is high tear resistance and durability, effectively blocking ground moisture during building projects. Note that this specific product is a small 10cm x 10cm sample, intended strictly for evaluating material thickness, texture, and colour quality before purchasing full-size rolls.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this product the full-size roll?

No, this is a 10cm x 10cm sample designed for evaluating the thickness and quality of the material before purchasing a larger roll.

What does 1200G mean?

1200G refers to the thickness of the polythene, which is 1200 gauge. This is a heavy-duty grade suitable for construction and damp-proofing purposes.

Can this be used for garden ponds?

While it is a heavy-duty membrane, it is specifically designed for construction and damp-proofing, not specifically for pond lining or fish safety.

Does the blue colour fade?

While the material is durable, like all polythene products, it may show signs of fading or surface wear if left exposed to intense direct sunlight for long periods.

How do I secure the sheeting in place?

On building sites, it is typically held in place by overlapping, using heavy materials like sand or aggregate, or by securing the edges with specialized construction tape.

Troubleshooting

Difficulty unrolling the full-size product

Unroll the sheeting on a flat surface and use heavy objects like bricks or timber to hold the edges in place while positioning.

Tape failing to stick to the sheeting

Ensure the surface of the polythene is clean, dry, and free of dust or site debris before applying adhesive tape.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent tear and puncture resistance for heavy-duty use
  • Provides a reliable moisture-resistant barrier
  • High-visibility blue colour for easy site identification
  • Suitable for a wide range of professional building and landscaping tasks
  • Professional-grade 1200 gauge thickness

Cons

  • The product listed is only a 10cm x 10cm sample size
  • Not intended for use as a finished permanent covering
  • Rigid texture compared to thinner plastic films

Setup, Compatibility & Care

When working with full-size rolls of Pegdev sheeting, ensure the ground is level and free from sharp, protruding objects that could pierce the membrane. When joining sections, always overlap the sheets by at least 150mm and seal the seams with high-quality, weather-resistant construction tape to maintain the moisture barrier. For maintenance, keep the material away from extreme heat sources, as constant exposure to high temperatures can affect the integrity of the polythene. While the sheeting is UV-stabilized to a degree, extended direct exposure to harsh sunlight over many months may eventually lead to degradation.
