Protection Boards
Protect your damp-proofing or water-proofing from the damage of backfilling.
Foam-Control Protection Boards are economical, light weight and easy to install over foundation walls that have been damp-proofed or water-proofed with coatings/membranes.
Installed prior to backfilling, Foam-Control Protection Boards provide impact puncture protection for foundation wall coatings/membranes from rocks and potential construction debris in backfill soil. Protection is also provided against crushed stone/gravel used in many foundation drainage designs.
In cold regions, Foam-Control Protection Boards bond-break the soil from the foundation wall and as insulation reduces potential damage of freeze-thaw cycling.
