wierd , looks like the dural one but with felt on the tiling side given we can see the depressions so assume that is the top?

Stick to felt ? wouldnt that hinder the adhesive mechanically locking into the depressions?

Looks almost like its a duff batch where the underside ( felt ) has stuck to the face when rolled up?

Never seen it before .

I've seen a yellow version of this before, but only once and i've no idea who made it.
As i remember it had stuck really well to the adhesive as the fleece is a bit fluffier than other such as Ditra or Dural.

Its a Beava Wondermat.

Kinda the same as the other brands (ditra, dural etc) but Beava

I've used it a fair few times, STS in Leeds used to sell it, but there's been a few reported problems in the past, so now its been replaced by Sandimat (I think).

Blanke, Genesis,Concept, they are all the same, not tried and tested. Stick to Ditra or the new Dural mat. Imho Mr tiler please read the many posts on decoupling membranes, I understand you want to learn, but this stuff is really basic. Not wanting to be unkind, but you need to understand the technical side of tiling if you are going to be a tiler. Good luck.
