List of featured suppliers of DAMPCOURSES Methane Barrier on Building Products Index
Dampcourses and methane barriers are materials or techniques used to prevent moisture and methane gas from penetrating a building's structure. These features are typically installed during the construction process and can be made of various materials such as plastic membranes, coated metal sheets, or specialized sealants. The purpose of a dampcourse is to prevent rising damp, which can lead to structural damage and mold growth. Methane barriers are important in areas with high levels of methane gas, such as near landfills or mines, as the gas can be flammable and pose a safety hazard if it enters a building.
