Application

Powerlon® UV Colour FR for use behind partially open rainscreen cladding on vertical walls

Storage and handling:

  • Store the membrane horizontally away from sunlight in a cool, dry sheltered store.
  • Ensure that the membrane is not creased or folded. In case of corners, loosely install the membrane around the corner or make a well-sealed butt joint. Do not crease the material.
  • Pull the membrane tight and always fasten loose edges mechanically with staples.
  • Staples can be used as long as they are covered by a second layer of membrane (e.g. where there is an overlap).

Overlaps:

  • Always overlap the cut edge.
  • Vertical overlaps should be 50 mm minimum
  • Horizontal overlaps should be 50 mm minimum
