Novia® 500 Gauge FR Class B-s1,d0 Fire Rated Virgin Polythene - FR Class B Air And Vapour Control Layer
Verified by manufacturer 2 days ago
Novia® 500 Gauge FR Virgin Polythene is a Class B flame resistant, virgin grade, single-ply blown polythene Air & Vapour Control layer (AVCL).
Application
The membrane has good moisture vapour resistance and is suitable for use in insulated wall, floor or roof applications where there is a moderate risk of interstitial condensation occuring.
Novia® 500 Gauge FR Virgin polythene also minimises air leakage and energy heat loses, improving the long-term energy efficiency of constructions. It is a low cost solution for standard and high rise constructions, supplied single wound in 1.5m x 50m rolls.
Novia® 500 Gauge FR virgin polythene is a milky white transluscent polythene, with no text or images, which allows for ease of installation to the structural framework.
