Professional-Grade DPC Injection Fluid for Rising Damp Treatment

BioDry ProFlow RTU (Ready-to-Use) is a pre-mixed, water-based potassium methyl siliconate solution designed to create an effective chemical damp-proof course (DPC) without the need for on-site dilution. Suitable for low-pressure injection into mortar beds, it provides convenient and reliable rising damp protection for domestic, heritage, and light commercial projects.

Key Features & Benefits

• Water-Based Formula: Non-flammable and easy to handle, ideal for sensitive indoor environments.
• Cost-Effective: High dilution rate (1:11.5) makes 2L concentrate yield up to 25L of ready-to-use solution.
• Effective Against Rising Damp: Forms a continuous barrier in the mortar bed to prevent moisture transfer.
• Low-Pressure Injection: Suitable for use in residential and heritage buildings with minimal disruption.
• Versatile Application: Effective in solid brickwork, stone, rubble-filled walls, and cavity walls.
• Freeze-Tolerant: Unaffected by freezing; suitable for storage and use in cold conditions.

Application Areas

• Rising damp in brick and stone walls
• Remedial damp proofing in existing buildings
• Heritage and conservation properties
• Solid, cavity, and rubble-core walls

Preparation & Application

• Surface Prep: Remove skirtings, plasters, and damaged renders. Rake out mortar beds to 10–15mm depth. Clean debris for adhesion.
• Drilling: Drill 10–14mm holes into or angled towards mortar beds. Spacing ≤170mm. Drill both sides for thicker or cavity walls.
• Injection: Dilute 1 part BioDry ProFlow with 11.5 parts clean water. Inject under 50 psi until mortar bed is fully saturated.
• Finishing: Plug holes and allow walls to dry before replastering. Use a bell-mouth render detail where external render was removed.
