Effisus Breather FR UV - Weatherproof Breathable System Membrane
Verified by manufacturer 3 months ago
A non-combustible waterproofing vapour permeable and airtight membrane, promoting efficiency and sustainability for the entire building.
Application
Typical applications:
- Rainscreen cladding.
- Cavity and masonry.
- Leaf weatherboarding cladding.
- Timber frame cladding.
Description
Effisus Breather FR UV has good UV resistance for perforated and open joints rainscreen cladding systems. Suitable for application on facades with 100% permanent exposure, designed for protection of facades against driving rain, moisture and wind avoiding insulation deterioration, mould growth and corrosion of façade components.
The membrane system includes a wide range of accessories allowing its installation on the most demanding project requirements promoting the facade efficiency.
