Maximum safety
The high pressure stability of the guttabeta® star dimpled membranes can be attributed to the special star-shaped geometry of the studs. This design raises the value of the membrane to more than 50% above that of comparable traditional dimpled membranes. The ridges reinforce the studs and are excellent at diverting pressures. This means that the HDPE material achieves a particularly high mechanical resilience. The well-established physical and chemical properties of HDPE are unaffected by this.
In a vertical installation, the high pressure resistance of the guttabeta® star dimpled membranes makes it possible for them to absorb the ground pressure on the insulation at a much better rate. The load-bearing capacity and resilience of the studs increase in a horizontal installation.
