Product Applications
Mel-Rol waterproofing system provides a cost-effective answer to properly waterproof foundations, vertical walls, and below-grade floors in residential and commercial construction. It is equally effective for use as between-the-slab waterproofing on plaza decks, parking decks, and structural slabs. Use it as a waterproofing membrane to isolate mechanical and electronic rooms, laboratories, kitchens, and bathrooms. Mel-Rol offers positive protection when “wrapped around” major rapid transit, vehicular, utility, and pedestrian tunnel projects. Mel-Rol can also be used on insulated concrete forms (ICF). Mel-Rol can be applied to concrete, masonry surfaces, wood, insulated wall systems, and metal.
Installation of Protection Course from W. R. Meadows is recommended before backfilling. Mel-Rol can also be used with drainage boards when specified.
