- Tiles can be easily cut inside with no messy debris or hazardous air.
- Engineered with flexibility to accommodate concrete irregularities eliminating the need for shims.
- Provide a soft comfort feel under many flooring types.
- Stands up to heavy home furnishings up to 11,500 lbs per sq. ft.
Air-flow Technology
- Tiles create a thermal break adding up to 3⁰C of warmth to the finished floor.
- Raised channels under the tile allow concrete to breathe and evaporation of moisture.
Water-flow Channels
- In the event of basement flooding, raised channels allow water to flow under tiles to a floor drain.
- Other systems can trap water causing foul odours, mold and mildew.
Low Profile
- Tile profile maximize headroom in a new living space and reduce transitions between rooms.
DryBarrier® is a modular subfloor tile system made from thermoplastic elastomer and is used on concrete as a subfloor for below grade. The tiles snap together in a stack bond or running bond pattern providing a vapour barrier with a 1/4" air space between the concrete and finished floor. The durable top surface is flat to support finished flooring applications.
