Product Information

Full details

The Pegdev 8m x 4m Polythene Sheeting is designed for construction professionals and serious DIYers who require a high-strength, BBA-approved damp proof membrane for concrete flooring projects. Its 250-micron (1000 gauge) thickness provides excellent durability for a wide range of utility tasks, including greenhouse insulation and gravel underlay; however, due to its heavy-duty nature, it may be less pliable than thinner alternatives when used for intricate wrapping tasks.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this sheet safe for use under a concrete slab?

Yes, it is BBA-approved for use as a damp proof membrane in accordance with building regulations.

Can I use this for greenhouse insulation?

Yes, its thickness makes it effective at trapping heat and protecting plants from the elements.

How thick is the material?

This product features a 250-micron or 1000-gauge thickness.

Does it come in different sizes?

Yes, Pegdev offers various sizes including 7m, 9m, 10m, 12m, 16m, 20m, 21m, and 24m lengths, all at 4m width.

Is the material UV resistant?

While durable and suitable for outdoor tasks, it is primarily intended for DPM and general protection rather than long-term direct sunlight exposure.

Troubleshooting

Sheeting is lifting in the wind.

Use heavy-duty ground pegs or weigh down all edges with stones or timber to ensure full coverage.

Moisture is seeping through joints.

Ensure a minimum 150mm overlap and apply high-quality double-sided jointing tape to seal the seams completely.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-grade 1000-gauge durability
  • BBA-approved for building regulation compliance
  • Multi-purpose utility for both indoor construction and outdoor gardening
  • Excellent resistance to moisture and debris

Cons

  • Less flexible than lightweight plastic films
  • Heavyweight material requires secure anchoring in windy conditions
  • Bulkier to store when folded

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For DPM applications, ensure the surface is clean and free of sharp debris that could puncture the sheeting. Overlap seams by at least 150mm and seal them with appropriate jointing tape to maintain a moisture-proof seal. When using outdoors, ensure the edges are buried or weighed down with heavy objects to prevent wind lifting. Clean the surface periodically with water if it has been used as a protective cover for landscaping to maintain its longevity.
