NobleSeal® CIS is made from chlorinated polyethylene (CPE) with a non-woven polyester fabric laminated to both sides.
The fabric provides a bondable surface so that the membrane can be bonded to a substrate and tile can be bonded to the other side.
The CPE membrane in the middle provides elasticity and relieves the stress caused by differences in movement in the tile field and in the substrate.
CPE is impervious and an extremely effective barrier to water and vapor. It’s not affected by variations in temperature and is resistant to a broad range of chemicals.
CPE is so durable, Noble Company can guarantee that it will last the life of the original tile installation.
