Vapor barrier that keeps coatings bonded

About

A moisture membrane is a vapor-reduction layer installed directly on the concrete before the flooring system. We use PUR-VRM-EXT, a 100% solids, two-component epoxy that meets ASTM F3010 requirements for vapor permeance when applied at 18 mils. It forms a seamless, impermeable barrier that controls moisture vapor emission from new and existing slabs — the most common cause of blistering and delamination in South Florida, where high groundwater and humidity keep slabs damp. It contains no solvents and can be installed in occupied facilities.

Right Fit

Not For

  • A finished floor on its own. It's a protective under-layer and always gets a coating system on top.
  • Unprepared concrete. Cracks, oils and old coatings must be ground and repaired first, or it won't bond.

Built for South Florida

How this material handles sun, humidity, damp slabs and coastal air

Sun & Heat

Installed beneath the flooring system, so it is never exposed to direct sun.

Humidity

Florida's high water table and humidity keep many slabs damp year-round — the main reason this layer exists.

Slab Moisture

Meets ASTM F3010 at 18 mils. We test moisture on every project to decide whether a membrane is required.

Salt Air & Pools

Stops moisture from carrying salts up through the slab, which causes blistering in coatings near the coast.
