About Toughsheet Building Products
Toughsheet Building Products is the UK’s largest manufacturer of eco-friendly construction membranes, pioneering sustainable structural protection without compromising on structural performance. Founded with a deep commitment to environmental stewardship, Toughsheet operates a world-class, closed-loop recycling facility in Westhoughton, Bolton, transforming waste polyethylene into heavy-duty building solutions. As industry trailblazers, they were the very first company to achieve British Board of Agrément (BBA) accreditation and PIFA approval for a damp-proof membrane manufactured from 100% recycled materials.
By heavily investing in state-of-the-art EREMA manufacturing technology, Toughsheet ensures all impurities are eradicated during production. The result is an eco-conscious product line that meets strict British Standards, offering the heavy-duty tear resistance, long-term durability, and reliable site handling that contractors demand. From housing developments to major commercial builds, Toughsheet protects foundations and masonry walls from moisture ingress while actively diverting thousands of tonnes of plastic waste away from landfills.
