SILPRO Introduces New Moisture Suppression System
Ayer, MA- USA (October 17, 2011)- SILPRO announced today the introduction of a new, high performance epoxy moisture suppression system, VAPOR HALT™ 125.
This premium, high performance moisture suppression system was developed for the quality conscious contractor for use in reducing the passage of water vapor and moisture through concrete slabs on or below grade. By controlling the passage of water vapor through concrete, VAPOR HALT™ 125 effectively eliminates delamination and degradation of adhesives, floor coverings, and floor coatings.
SILPRO's high performance, high strength formulation VAPOR HALT™ 125 is preferred choice for quality conscious professionals. With its unique high performance formulation, VAPOR HALT™ 125 is able to reduce moisture vapor transmission levels up to 25lbs per 24hrs per 1000 sq. ft. to 3 lbs or less (<99% RH to ≤ 75% RH), allowing the installation of most floor covering systems, including carpet, sheet vinyl, VCT, wood, laminates, epoxy, terrazzo, and other synthetic floor coverings.
"The fact that VAPOR HALT™ 125 is a one coat system, requires no sand broadcast, can be applied over "green" concrete, and does not require a primer for subsequent cement-based underlayments, makes it the perfect product for fast-track job conditions," said Chris Bolognese, Marketing and Technical Services Manager.
