Breather membrane (WRB), with self-adhesive strips

Variant without self-adhesive strips

Advantages

  • Very robust: strong, 3-ply structure
  • Dry building components: pore-free TEEE functional film actively transports moisture to the outside
  • Easy to work with: high nail pull-out resistance
  • For use behind closed facades
  • 3 months of outdoor exposure
  • Quick and reliable adhesion thanks to the integrated ‘connect’ self-adhesive strips on the long edges of the membrane

Areas of application

For use as a breather membrane (weather-resistive barrier, WRB) behind closed facades. Installation over sheathing, wood-based panels and all mat or panel-shaped thermal insulation materials.

General conditions

SOLITEX FRONTA WA membranes are to be installed horizontally in a taut manner with no sagging.

The membrane must not be secured in areas where water collectively drains off.

The membrane can be used behind closed facades with at least 20 mm (1") of rear ventilation.

Additional measures (e.g. covering with tarpaulins) should be taken during the construction phase in the case of buildings that are lived in or buildings that are to be given particular protection. Covering with tarpaulins should also be considered if construction work is to be interrupted for a longer period.
