Airtight, breathable membranes
Adhesive bonding systems are critical to the performance of airtight, breathable membranes in buildings. While various membrane types and installation methods are used depending on the specific building envelope requirements, every system needs a reliable way to bond overlaps and seal penetrations while preserving the membrane's air and vapor permeability. The adhesive tape chosen for this has a significant impact on long-term weathering performance, especially where installation happens in less-than-ideal conditions. For market-leading membrane bonding solutions, we've got you covered.
UV acrylic tape
The market is currently dominated by various acrylic tapes, known for their reliability, yet sensitive to weatherability and its effect on the short and long term. Always looking to improve, we developed a new UV acrylic tape programme that's designed specifically for this purpose, and can easily be integrated on the membrane to offer cutting edge installation efficiency, in all conditions. Key benefits are:
- Good adhesion on the relevant materials
- Improved application on moist / wet membranes
