Anti Fracture Membrane (AFM)

The Anti-Fracture Membrane by Atech Products is a two-part system made of liquid rubber and reinforcing fabric. Once it dries, it becomes a very flexible layer. This is helpful because when you put tiles on floors using the thin bed method, sometimes the floors can crack. These cracks can show through the tiles or grout lines. To stop or lessen these cracks, you should use our membrane on the cracked floor before putting down ceramic tiles, marble, or stone.Our Anti-Fracture Membrane has Microban protection. This helps fight mold and mildew that can cause stains.
