Uncoupling Membrane

Uncoupling membrane for tile installation — a polyethylene membrane with a grid structure that uncouples the tile covering from the substrate, provides waterproofing and vapor management, and prevents crack telegraphing over concrete and wood subfloors.

Uncoupling Membrane

Overview

Uncoupling membrane for tile installation — a polyethylene membrane with a grid structure that uncouples the tile covering from the substrate, provides waterproofing and vapor management, and prevents crack telegraphing over concrete and wood subfloors.

This product line is engineered for distributors, builders and factories who need consistent quality, flexible MOQ and reliable export supply. Completes the TANYTE wet-area system: backer board + uncoupling membrane + dry floor heating panel — one supplier, one matched build-up.

Function

Uncoupling Layer

Neutralizes differential movement between substrate and tile — stops cracks from telegraphing into the covering.

Function

Waterproofing Membrane

Taped seams create a bonded waterproofing layer — ideal over wet-room floors under tile.

Benefit

Crack Isolation

Bridges shrinkage cracks in concrete slabs; protects large-format tile.

Benefit

Vapor Management

Free-space channels allow vapor to escape from the substrate — safe over green concrete.

Install

Thin-Bed Method

Anchored into thin-set with tile applied directly on top — fast, low build-up.

Pair

With UFH & Backer Board

Lay over our backer boards or heating panels for a complete tanked, heated floor system.
