Ditra Tile Matting

Ditra is an uncoupling membrane designed for ceramic and stone tile installations on floors.

The free space provides an escape route for excess moisture and vapor that could otherwise cause damage to the tile layer above. Thus ditra effectively manages moisture beneath the tile covering. The matting has a grid structure of square cavities which are each cut back in a. Tile is installed over ditra using the thin bed method in such a way that the mortar becomes mechanically anchored in the square cutback cavities of the matting.

What is ditra matting. The distinguishing feature of ditra is the existence of free space created by the configured channels on the underside of the matting. Ditra matting is a polyethylene membrane with an anchoring fleece laminated to its underside. Lay ditra 25 matting over underfloor heating to distribute heat more evenly and prevent tile cracking due to expansion and contraction.

Designed specifically for ceramic tile and dimension stone installations ditra serves as an uncoupling layer waterproofing membrane and vapor management layer that accommodates. The substrate must be even and load bearing. It provides uncoupling to prevent cracked tile and grout. It is made of polyethylene creating a waterproofing layer protecting the substrate.

Ditra matting is particularly useful when installing underfloor heating and provides a decoupling layer between the underfloor heating and the tiles.
