AB Svensk Våtrumskontroll
VK (Swedish Flooring Trade Association Wetroom Control) is a foundation consisting of organizations and companies working on a national level towards the common goal of reducing water damage in wet rooms.
Through GVK, these organizations and companies together provide industry GVKs Trade Regulations (GVKs Branschregler) for waterproof layers in thin-layer-constructions. That is to say either with an plastic carpet as a combined surface and waterproof layer or with a surface layer of ceramic tiles fitted with an adhesive directly onto a waterproof layer of plastic carpet, a waterproof sheeting or a liquid-based waterproof layer.
N.B. The suppliers instructions for installation must always be complied with.
