Homeguard Precision Termite Management 

HomeGuard is an innovative Precision Termite Management System that has been developed by FMC Australasia Pty Ltd.

Under the Australian Standard AS3660.1 Termite Management Part 1: New Building WorkHomeGuard is classified as a chemical termite barrier in a non-soil matrix combining the attributes of both chemical and physical Termite management Systems while meeting the 'Performance Appraisal' requirements of the Building Code of Australia.

HomeGuard is the first and only chemical barrier in a non-soil matrix product ever registered by the Australian Pesticides and Veterinary Medicines Authority (APVMA).

HomeGuard is the first and only single sheet termite moisture barrier containing an Australian registered termiticide in a polymer matrix.

HomeGuard is a single sheet with the active ingredient evenly distributed throughout the matrix.

HomeGuard acts as a waterproof membrane, a DPC and an effective Termite Management tool all in one.

 Components

The HomeGuard PTM system consists of the following components: HomeGuard TMB, HomeGuard DPC HomeGuard Blue, HomeGuard GT and HomeGuard Collars.

HomeGuard TMB

HomeGuard TMB complies with all requirements of Australian Standard AS2870 so can also double as a 0.2mm high impact moisture barrier.

HomeGuard DPC

HomeGuard DPC complies with all requirements of Australian Standards AS2870 as an approved 0.5mm Damp Proof Course, so no additional perimeter cavity needs to be installed.

HomeGuard Blue

HomeGuard Blue is a cost effective perimeter barrier. It does not comply with AS2870 so requires a seperate DPC to be installed.

HomeGuard GT

HomeGuard GT is a pro-active, granulated termite barrier. it can be used for a full permieter and is also ideal to use in corrective situations .

HomeGuard Collars

HomeGuard Collars the first ever impregnated service penetration collars that simply lock into the slab, even if installed incorrectly.

The Collars are a unique patented design making them the only rigid penetration collar on the market that will Kill and Repel Termites as well as physically stop their entry into the building.

The collars come in various sizes to fit most penetrations in a home and all comply with the requirements of Australian Standard AS2870.

Homeguard Termflex

FMC are pleased to announce a new addition to the HomeGuard Range - HOMEGUARD TERMIFLEX an adhesive and sealant. 

Termiflex is designed to revolutionise the ease, speed and flexibility of installing a continuous HomeGuard barrier.  Principally the product allows the secure bonding of HomeGuard Sheet to itself and other pre-construction materials such as concrete, bricks, conduit and metal in various HomeGuard installation methods. HomeGuard Sheet can now be cut and joined, doing away with the "continuous corner:, and side fixing is now possible.

Additionally Termiflex will provide HomeGuard installers with a highly effective, multifunctional adhesive and sealant which will be adapted to many other uses when installing a HomeGuard system.

Termiflex contains the highly regarded termiticide - Biflex, which ensures termites are either killed or repelled by the product wherever it is applied. After seeking advice from the best chemical engineers in the business and subjecting the product to extensive Australian field trials we have developed a product that provides many qualities including:

• Multifunctional formulation- Adhesive and Sealant
• Easy to apply
• Blocks, Kills and Repels Termites
• Strong bonding characteristics
• Mould and Mildew Resistance

 

Importantly

• HomeGuard does not leech or diffuse, effectively locking in the active ingredient to enhance efficacy, longevity while remaining environmentally friendly and safe.
• HomeGuard Kills, Repels and Physically restricts termites trying to enter the Home.
• HomeGuard is sealed in permanently into your home so it can not be disturbed.
• The active ingredient is distributed evenly throughout the HomeGuard giving you a full and continuous termite barrier.

Trials

HomeGuard has been extensively trialled before bring to the market place to make sure you are getting the best quality product.

It has also been registered by the APVMA (the first ever) and also holds CSIRO Building approval and is suitable for use in all states of Australia.

Australian trials on Biflex (HomeGuard in a liquid form) have been ongoing for 16 years.
