Roof Weather Resistive Barrier
Advantages
- Excellent UV resistance
- Highly vapour-permeable
- Long-term durability and high strength
- Weathertight & airtight weather-resistive barrier (WRB)
- Helps protect a building from condensation
- Fire Retardant (FI <5 as per AS/NZS1530.2)
Areas of application
SOLITEX MENTO®3000 provides superior weather and condensation protection for your roof under all weather conditions . With type R4 classification (NZS 2295). it is suitable to be used in self-supported applications up to and including extra high wind zones . SOLITEX MENTO® protects your roof and building envelope from the elements during construction while allowing any internal moisture to escape through the vapour permeable, non-porous TEEE layer.
