I was advised to use something called Coraloy (or perhaps Coroloy, see
below) on a construction project. I trust the person who gave me this
advice, but was trying to find something on-line about this stuff, and
was really surprised that I couldn't locate this product through a
Google search.

Searching *does* yield a couple of pages that discuss this material, but
no manufacturer's web site, no commercial sites offering it. Searching
for "coroloy" only brings up some pages in German. Strange.

It's a sheet plastic material used for shower pans, among other things.

Anyone know anything about this stuff? Where to get it? I'm going to
talk to my local tile shop about it tomorrow.

Google returns www.coreau.com which it appears is parent company. It
appears to be a French company. Their site uses Flash which I don't
load so here's about all I found.

Not clear this is the right one for the membrane, though as they seem to
be specialty pumps and gears.

Did find a tile forum that talks of it a couple of times -- if no luck
locally, might try the www.johnbridge.com forum and ask the respondent
where it's from.

I'd say if it's that difficult to locate it probably isn't going to be
available w/o a whole lot of trouble so I'd go w/ a traditional pan or
other membrane product.
