01795 515 110 Website

Application

Suitable for use on SFS type light steel frame, concrete frame or any insulated external wall construction. Suitable for roof applications where a high moisture vapour resistance is required such as insulated flat roof details.

Description

Class B fire rated and reflective airtight vapour control membrane.


Features and benefits:

  • EN 13501-1 fire performance Class B-s1, d0 (valid for substrates with fire class A2-s1, d0 or A1 such as 12 mm plasterboard, or suitable mineral wool with no cavity between the product and substrate. Product tested to EN 13501-1).
  • Very low moisture vapour permeability minimising interstitial condensation.
  • Improves insulation performance, reducing energy costs.
  • Install with Novia butyl tape and 96mm BS476 foil overlap tape.
  • Very high reflectivity which can improve U-values.
  • CE approved to BS EN 13984.
  • Suitable for use in high rise buildings to meet fire resistance requirements as per current Building Regulations.


A fully CE approved and independently tested fire rated vapour barrier. Helps buildings to meet the requirements of BS 5250. Suitable for use in conjunction with Novia® breather membranes for insulated frame applications.
