Where is Max Mesh used?

Max Mesh is an alkali-resistant woven fibreglass reinforcement mesh embedded into Drizoro liquid cementitious membranes (Maxseal Flex, Flex-M, Super) at cold joints, wall/slab junctions, corners, penetrations, and areas of substrate movement.

How does it strengthen the membrane?

The mesh acts as a tensile reinforcement layer within the membrane, distributing stress across cracks and movement zones. Without mesh, a thin liquid membrane can tear at the crack apex; with mesh, the stress is spread.

Apply the first wet coat of cementitious membrane, lay the mesh into the wet coat along the joint/crack/junction, press out air with a pressure roller, then apply the second membrane coat over the mesh once the first has set.

Compatible with which Drizoro membranes?

Embeds into all Drizoro cementitious membranes (Maxseal Flex, Flex-M, Super, Traffic) and is also used at corner detailing under Maxsheen Elastic and Maxflex top coats.

Yes. Max Mesh is CE marked. Refer to the linked TDS for the full DRIZORO MESH range specification (covers 58, 130, and 140 g/m² weights).

How to Use

Lay into the fresh first layer of coating or mortar and press through with a brush, roller or trowel until completely embeddedRepair any surface damage or defect deeper than 5mm, opened to a minimum depth of 2 cm, with a structural repair mortar such as MAXREST
Remove any irregularity protruding from the substrate that could trap air under the coating
Open wall to slab and pillar to slab joints to a hole of approximately 30 x 30 mm and repair with MAXREST, or MAXPLUG where water is present
Finish those junctions with a concave corner profile
Round all corners and edges to a radius greater than 30 mm
Cut the mesh strips to the length set out in the drawing and work plan with scissors or a utility cutter
Pre-assemble the cut strips on the substrate before installation
Apply the first layer of the waterproof coating or mortar
While the first layer is still fresh, place the mesh strip onto the undercoat
Smooth the mesh down with a brush, roller or trowel from one end to the other and press firmly across it to release trapped air
Check the mesh is completely embedded and impregnated by the coating or mortar
Overlap strips by at least 5 cm longitudinally and side by side
Cover at least 10 cm of each edge of a joint or crack with the mesh
Observe the open time of the material being reinforced and apply the second layer to its own Technical Bulletin

Technical overview

Drizoro Mesh is a range of alkali-resistant fibreglass meshes for reinforcing waterproof coatings, plaster mortars on facades and repair mortars on structures, to prevent cracking under stress and give the system greater resistance. It is laid into the fresh first layer of the coating or mortar and pressed through until fully embedded, never placed straight onto the substrate. The Technical Bulletin covers grades 58, 130 and 140 and publishes weight, thickness and tensile strength for roll widths of 1 m and 0,30 m only. It does not list a 200mm x 50m roll, so no grade-specific figures are quoted here. No accredited test certificate is published for this product.

Key applications

Reinforcing waterproof coatings
Reinforcing plaster mortars on facades
Reinforcing repair mortars on structures
Overlapping, reinforcement and bridging of cracks, corners and corner fillets
Construction joints and penetration pipes
Critical points between different types of substrates
Waterproof coatings exposed to thermal movements by weather conditions
Coatings applied over smooth surfaces and non-porous substrates

Do not place the mesh directly on the substrate without any previous coating or mortar. Surface damages and defects deeper than 5mm, such as cavities, chips, cracks and holes, must first be opened to a minimum depth of 2 cm and repaired with a structural repair mortar such as MAXREST. Remove any irregularities that protrude from the substrate and could lead to air traps under the coating. Joints between walls and slabs or pillars and slabs must be opened to a hole of approximately 30 x 30 mm and repaired with MAXREST, or MAXPLUG if water is present, and finished with a concave corner profile. Corners and edges must be rounded to a radius greater than 30 mm. Make sure the mesh is completely embedded by the coating or mortar, and observe the open time of the material being reinforced before applying the second layer. Store in the original unopened packaging in a vertical position, dry and covered, between 5C and 40C and away from heat and direct sunlight.

Why trade professionals choose Drizoro

Drizoro is a Spanish manufacturer of cement based waterproofing and concrete repair products, supplied to the Australian trade through The Waterproofing Shop. The range on this site covers Maxseal Foundation and Maxseal Flex, along with repair mortars, grouts, joint products and mesh, used on concrete and masonry where water has to be held back rather than simply shed. Choosing between the rigid and the flexible grade is the key decision, and it comes down to the substrate, the direction of the water and how much movement the structure is likely to see.
