Frequently Asked Questions About Corflute Protection Board (1805mm x 1210mm x 2mm)
Q: How is the Corflute Protection Board applied?
A: Simply place the board directly over the waterproofing membrane before backfilling or applying pressure. Use tape or adhesive for vertical applications to keep it in place.
Q: How durable is the board under heavy construction conditions?
A: The 2mm corrugated polypropylene structure provides high resistance to puncture, impact, and abrasion—ideal for heavy-duty trade environments.
Q: Is this product compatible with all waterproofing membranes?
A: Yes, it’s chemically inert and non-reactive, making it suitable for use with most sheet and liquid-applied waterproofing membranes.
Q: What should I do if the board bends or warps during storage?
A: Lay the board flat in a shaded area with weight on top to restore shape. Avoid storing near heat sources to prevent warping in future.
Q: How should I safely dispose of damaged boards?
A: Dispose of in general industrial waste. Corflute is recyclable under many local council guidelines; check for local recycling options.
Use Corflute Protection Board (1805mm x 1210mm x 2mm) for:
- Temporary protection of waterproofing membranes during construction
- Shielding membranes from punctures during backfilling

Why Use Corflute Protection Board (1805mm x 1210mm x 2mm):
- Minimises membrane damage and reapplication costs
- Improves job site efficiency with easy handling and coverage
- Durable and reusable—eco-conscious alternative to disposable options
How to apply Corflute Protection Board (1805mm x 1210mm x 2mm):
- Ensure membrane is fully cured before applying protection board
- Lay sheets flat over membrane surface, overlapping edges slightly
- Use compatible adhesive tape or spot fix with sealant if vertical application is required
- Cut to fit corners or penetrations using a utility knife
- Proceed with backfilling or further site works as needed
Corflute Protection Board (1805mm x 1210mm x 2mm) limitations:
- Not suitable as a long-term UV-exposed barrier
