BAL Waterproof 1C – the new one-coat solution
B
AL, market-leaders in full-tiling solutions, have launched a new one-coat waterproofing solution
for bathrooms, wetrooms and showers prior to tiling. BAL Waterproof 1C is a ready-mixed tanking solution that can be used without priming on most common substrates and is ready to tile after only two hours! Formulated with fibre-strand technology for improved strength, it can be applied in one-coat on walls and floors with a brush, roller or 4 mm notched trowel. No additional tapes or matting are needed as it is crack- bridging from 2-3 mm. This innovative new product is lightweight with easy-to-apply rheology and provides excellent coverage of up to 6 m² – making it suitable for domestic shower rooms, bathrooms or wetrooms. BAL Waterproof 1C also has

sustainable benefits with Low VOC and using 40% recycled materials. As part of the launch, BAL is streamlining its current waterproofing solution by deleting BAL WP1 / BAL Waterproofing Kit – and old technology that will be replaced by the higher performing Waterproof 1C.
Continuing in the product range will be BAL Tank-it – a quicker setting 2-part powder and liquid product that can be tiled in only 90 minutes. BAL Tank-it can also be used for
large scale commercial projects and external waterproofing such as balconies and terraces.
Alex Underwood, Head of Marketing said: “BAL Waterproof 1C is a significant waterproofing innovation, greatly improving the performance of our former ready-mixed tanking solutions. In most instances, with no tapes or priming required, and
being applied as a one-coat solution, BAL Waterproof 1C provides an easy waterproofing solution to ensure tiled wet areas are compliant with British Standards.”
Additional advice on waterproof tanking system requirements for domestic and commercial wet areas is also given in BS 5385 Part 4: 2015.
