UNCOUPLING MEMBRANE
Prevent cracked tile and grout with the uncoupling membranes
TRÜSENBERGER uncoupling membrane is specifically designed for ceramic and stone tile installations. It provides uncoupling to prevent cracked tile and grout. Made of polyethylene, it serves as a waterproofing layer that protects moisture-sensitive substrates, such as plywood/OSB.
Free-space on the underside of the matting provides a route for excess moisture and vapor to prevent damage to the tile layer above. It performs all these functions while still providing adequate support/load distribution for the tile covering.

TRÜSENBERGER features an open rib design that creates a forgiving shear interface within the tile assembly. This allows for in-plane movement, which neutralizes stress between the tile and substrate—preventing common issues like cracking and delamination.
Made of polyethylene, TRÜSENBERGER offers dependable waterproofing for interior applications. It acts as a barrier that protects moisture-sensitive substrates from water penetration in modern building environments.
The unique channel structure on the underside of TRÜSENBERGER creates free space, allowing excess moisture and vapor to escape from the substrate. This helps prevent damage to the tile layer and ensures long-term performance.
TRÜSENBERGER forms column-like mortar structures within its cavities, effectively transferring loads from the tile surface to the substrate. Its incompressible design ensures strong support and even load distribution without compromising uncoupling benefits.
