Newton System 500
John Newton & Company are the inventors of Newton System 500, a combination of waterproofing membrane, drainage and pumping systems. Newton System 500 is unlike conventional tanking solutions as the cavity drainage membrane does not try to hold back water pressure. Instead it lets the water into the structure controlling its path up until the point of evacuation from the property.
Newton membrane systems are completely reversible: they can be fully removed from a property which makes it ideal for use in listed or historic buildings where preservation of the original structure is important.
