PLANTER BOXES/GREEN AREA

To waterproof a planter box, thoroughly clean and prepare the interior surface and determine which waterproofing system to use. Options include Liquid and Sheet Membranes.

• Clean the planter box: Remove all dirt, debris, and any old paint or sealant.
• Smooth the surface: Sand any rough areas to ensure a smooth surface for the sealant to adhere to.
• Address cracks and gaps: Fill any cracks or gaps with a suitable sealant or filler, such as Drizoro Maxrest fillet for concrete planters.
• Consider drainage: Install drainage holes at the bottom of the planter box to prevent water from accumulating.
• Prime the surface (if needed): Some sealants may require a primer coat before application.

• Choose a suitable sealant: either Fulaflex or Soudal SMX 35 depending on your choice of Membrane (ie Polyurethane or Waterbased)
• Apply the sealant as per the Australian Standards
• Apply a suitable primer
• Apply your choice of liquid membrane:
• Curing time: please refer to the Technical Data Sheet

Final Steps:

• Protect the membrane with Protection Board, Drainage Cell and Geofabric prior to back-filling

Sheet Membrane Option

Only a qualified WeldTec or Torch-on Applicator will be able to assist. We can recommend a local applicator should you require this system.
