Tanking Tape

Waterproof Sealing Tape for Wet Rooms and Shower Areas

Tanking Tape is a self-adhesive butyl-backed fleece tape designed to create a reliable, waterproof seal across board joints, corners, and pipe entries in wet environments.

It’s ideal for use in wet rooms, showers, bathrooms, and any area that requires long-term waterproof protection before tiling or finishing.

Made for a Watertight Seal

Each roll features a high-strength butyl adhesive that bonds instantly to clean, dry surfaces.

The fleece layer provides excellent flexibility and movement absorption, maintaining a watertight seal even as boards expand and contract.

Superior Flexibility and Bond Strength

The cross-laminated fleece surface ensures secure adhesion with waterproofing compounds, tile adhesives, and plaster-based systems.

This prevents leaks, lifting, and cracking around corners, pipe penetrations, and joins in wet areas.

Durable and Long-Lasting

Manufactured with a butyl rubber base, the tape provides excellent resistance to moisture, humidity, and temperature fluctuations.

It’s suitable for use in bathrooms, wet rooms, kitchens, and underfloor heating installations where lasting waterproof performance is essential.
