The waterproofing membrane is 3'3" wide, and the length will be customized depending on the total Sq Ft ordered. It is the ideal solution for ceramic, porcelain, cement, granite, marble, glass, mosaic, natural stone tiles, concrete blocks, linoleum, and carpet tiles.

This Schluter floor underlayment provides uncoupling, waterproofing, vapor management, and load distribution for the tile covering. It allows for even transitions between tile and hardwood flooring. DITRA-XL ensures the durability and integrity of a tile installation by preventing tile cracking. It creates an under tile waterproof layer to protect water-sensitive substrates, while removing excess vapor from tiles. It also supports and distributes heavy loads protecting the tiled surface. The anchoring fleece of the membrane (in-floor mat) is embedded in thin-set mortar adhesive for mechanical bonding to the substrate. In addition to DITRAXL, you may also use waterproof board or a Schluter shower system to complete your shower, steam room, or bathroom renovation.
