Introduction  In addition to remedial 
damp-coursing systems and remedial 
timber treatments for protection 
against, and elimination of, rising 
damp, dry and wet rot, woodworm and 
other infestations, the company 
supplies structural waterproofing 
systems including Isola Platon cavity 
drain membranes for basement 
waterproofing, and drainage and water 
storage systems for green roofs. 
Triton Systems operates its own 
research and development centre 
and produces a continually evolving 
range of products.
Authority  The company is quality 
assured to BS EN 9001: 2008, is a 
member of the Property Care 
Association and is a PCA approved 
supplier for structural waterproofing.

Tri-Gel DPC
Authority  Tri-Gel is the subject of 
Agrément Cert. 95/3210. 
Applications and Description  
Tri-Gel forms a DPC in all types of 
brickwork including cavity walls.  
It is a ready-to-use, water-based  
and water-soluble thixotropic gel. 
After injection it diffuses into damp 
substrates and reacts to form a DPC 
comprising a water repellent silicone 
resin network within the substrate 
capillaries.  This DPC is permeable 
to water vapour thus enabling the wall 
to "breathe" and dry out naturally.  
Installation is by injection into  
12 mm dia. holes at 100 - 120 mm 
centres. Cavity walls would normally 
be treated from both sides.

Platon Multi
 Authority  Platon Multi is the 
subject of Agrément Cert. 01/3823. 
Applications and Description 
Platon Multi is a cavity drain 
membrane that can be used above 
or below ground, dry lined on walls, 
screeded or with a dry board system 
on floors. It may be used in the floors 
of industrial buildings and can allow 
contaminated floors to be upgraded.
Description  A 5 mm polypropylene 
membrane, Platon Multi is 
impermeable to water, gas and 
water vapour.

Tri-seal
Applications and Description   
Tri-seal is used as a surface 
damp-proof membrane and water 
vapour suppressant on damp 
surfaces subject to rising damp or 
containing residual construction 
moisture. Typical locations are 
beneath raised access floors, in 
plant rooms and bunded areas, as a 
coating for surfaces subject to foot 
and light wheeled traffic and as an 
internal vapour barrier.
Tri-seal is a solvent-free, 2-part epoxy 
resin coating that has a low  odour 
level. It is flexible, tough, waterproof 
and resistant to osmotic blistering.
Gases  Water vapour transmission

Platon Stop
Applications and Description  
Platon Stop offers protection 
against damp for wood-based floors 
such as parquet and laminate 
flooring laid on concrete whether on 
new or renovated older floors. It is 
suitable for heated floors.
It comprises a polypropylene sheet 
with a studded pattern that provides 
a low height layer. It reduces impact 
sound and prevents mould, fungus 
and rot in the floor.
Dimensions  Rolls are 1.25 x 15 m 
and 2.05 x 20

Platon Plaster Base
Authority  Platon Plaster Base is 
the subject of Agrement Cert. 
01/3823.

Applications and Description 
Platon Plaster Base is a cavity drain 
membrane that can be installed on 
internal walls and vaulted ceilings 
above or below ground level. The 
substrate remains visible through the 
clear membrane for precise fixing. It is 
suitable for use with sand and cement 
renders and most lightweight and 
renovating plasters.
Description  A 5 mm polypropylene 
membrane, impermeable to water, 
gas and water vapour.

Platon P20
Authority  Platon P20 is the subject 
of Agrement Cert. 01/3823.
Applications and Description
Platon P20 is a cavity drain 
membrane for internal use. It is a 
high capacity drainage membrane 
recommended for use on all floor 
applications below ground due to its 
ability to control free flowing water. The 
deep stud profile is designed to resist 
blockages caused by lime deposits.
Description  A 20 mm 
polypropylene membrane, Platon 
P20 is impermeable to water, gas 
and water vapour.
Dimensions  Sheet thickness: 
nominal 1.0 mm.

TT Vapour Membrane
Applications and Description
TT Vapour Membrane is a high 
performance elastomeric liquid 
rubber coating that once cured, 
provides a waterproof Methane and 
Carbon Dioxide barrier. It can be 
retro-applied as a waterproof and 
gas-proof membrane to concrete, 
masonry and brick substrates or as 
an alternative to sheet membranes 
in new construction. TT Vapour 
Membrane is a solvent free, ready 
for use coating. It is flexible, fully 
bonded and rapid drying. Installation 
is by stiff brush, roller or airless spray.
