Moisture Reduction

Planiseal EMB


Premium Epoxy Moisture Barrier for Concrete Substrates


Planiseal EMB is a high-performance, 100%-solids, two-part, epoxy, one-coat moisture barrier system for concrete slabs that exhibit moisture vapor emission rates (MVERs) up to 25 lbs. per 1,000 sq. ft. (11,3 kg per 92,9 m2) per 24 hours and reduces transmission rates to less than 3 lbs. (1,36 kg). Planiseal EMB’s unique formulation penetrates into the concrete substrate while creating a solid film layer on the surface for the ultimate in moisture transmission reduction. Planiseal EMB can also be used at different coverage rates, depending on the level of moisture vapor emission control required.


Planiseal VS


Alkali-Resistant, Epoxy Moisture-Reduction Barrier

Planiseal VS is an alkali-resistant, two-component, 100%-solids epoxy coating that effectively stops moisture-related problems with floor coverings. In all cases, moisture vapor emission rates (MVERs) of up to 25 lbs. per 1,000 sq. ft. (11,3 kg per 92,9 m2) per 24 hours are reduced to below the limit of 3 lbs. per 1,000 sq. ft. (1,36 kg per 92,9 m2) required for many types of finished flooring, when the designated film thickness is applied.

Applied in a single-coat application system, Planiseal VS offers low viscosity with high-density resins that effectively reduce MVER by penetrating deep into the substrate and effecting consolidation well beneath the surface.

Planiseal VS also may be used to consolidate friable substrates such as weak gypsum-based underlayments or lightweight concretes before the application of floor finishes. Once installed, Planiseal VS is compatible with a wide number of primers and adhesives typically used with flooring installations, such as tile, vinyl composition tile  (VCT), carpet, sheet vinyl, wood and other floor-finishing products.
