DELTA 速-PROTEC Booth #242 Dorken Systems, Inc.

DELTA 速-PROTEC the solution for concrete floors. It is a dimpled, heavy-duty, green plastic membrane for concrete and slab-on-grade floors that helps to keep moisture out of your basement. The membrane provides a significantly more comfortable floor. DELTA 速-PROTEC protects sensitive materials by providing a reliable capillary break and complete vapor barrier. In a typical basement, dry air in the living space acts as a magnet for water vapor migrating up through the concrete. The air gap created by DELTA 速-PROTEC allows the water vapor pressure above and below the concrete slab to equalize, while preventing the moisture from migrating further inwards. Hence, moisture does not affect the flooring material and your basement area stays dry and comfortable. The membrane also provides a thermal break, which increases the comfort in your basement and makes the floor feel warmer.

The True Collection is not stained or dyed “ it ™s Nature ™s process, applied by Hallmark. Unlike other wood floors, the color and beauty of these unique, True Collection floors, goes throughout the surface layer without using stains or dyes. The results are truly stunning and extraordinarily beautiful, with distinctive features and benefits. Hallmark is the first to master this revolutionary technology of replicating the bog-wood process that occurs when logs lie buried in lakes, river, and waterways for hundreds of years, deprived of oxygen and sunlight. This process in nature can take centuries for the wood to turn from its natural color to deep golden brown or even completely black. Hallmark has emulated nature ™s methods to create saturated colors throughout the top layer, creating stunning, weathered patinas. True Collection by Hallmark Floors. 9
