Two More Newton Waterproofing Products Achieve Third-Party Agrément® approvals.

11 March 2019

Newton’s name in the UK is synonymous with the highest levels of product quality and technical service, and this has now been bolstered by two more Newton products achieving NHBC, BBA and BDA Agrément® approvals.


Two New Agrément Approvals

For any product to achieve Agrément approval, they must undergo rigorous testing that follows precise installation instructions in order to confirm their compliance and durability.

Considering this exacting level of testing, Agréments are therefore recognised across the construction industry by architects, specifiers, engineers and the NHBC as a reliable third-party standard.

The two new approvals, granted by the Kiwa testing house, are:
 
  • BDA Agrément BAB-18-026-P-A-UK, awarded to the Type A, liquid-applied, flexible waterproof membrane Newton 107F.
  • Agrément BCAC-17-002, awarded to the type B, hydrophilic waterbar Newton 315 Polymer-Waterbar.  
All Three Types Of Waterproofing

The two new Agréments sit alongside Newton’s existing product approvals, including:
 
  • BDA Agrément BAB 16-031/03/A, awarded to the external Type A Newton HydroBond System.
  • And the comprehensive BBA Certificate 94/3010, covering Newton’s range of internal Type C waterproofing and above-ground damp proofing membranes.
Most importantly, this means that Newton can now boast third-party approvals for all three Types of waterproofing, as defined by BS 8102:2009.

 All Accepted By The NHBC

Furthermore, as a result of the new approvals Newton can now provide a complete range of external, structural and internal tanking and waterproofing products and solutions that are accepted by the NHBC on any project in which they are involved.

As the UK’s leading warranty and insurance provider for new homes, the importance of working alongside the NHBC cannot be underestimated:

“This complete set of approvals are the result of years of cooperation between Newton, Kiwa and the BBA, and we’re proud to offer this level of technical assurance to specifiers and customers. By working alongside the NHBC, we are confident that our approved products will contribute towards improving the construction quality of all new homes being built in the UK.”
