Occupants of buildings must be protected against harm from gases which occur in the ground and may seep into the building through cracks and gaps in the structure, eventually rising to harmful levels.
Building regulations require precautions be taken 'to avoid danger to health and safety caused by substances found on or in the ground to be covered by the building'
The most effective way to prevent those gases from reaching the interior of the building is to install a continuous gas barrier across the whole footprint of the building. The DuPont range of Realshield Gas Barriers offers you a choice of high performance barriers which are easy to install in any type of building, providing protection for the occupants.
