Description
Fire retardant breathable membrane tape, is a black foil, high tack tape. This FR (B-s1, d0) membrane tape is used to seal Windows, Doors, Curtain Walls, Façade cladding and many more watertight construction applications. Provides a range of significant benefits to the construction industry, especially in modern building envelopes, where fire safety, durability and performance are paramount.
Our FR breathable membrane is composed of an ecological PES fleece combined with an innovative, vapour permeable polyurethane coating, that provides durable UV protection and increased fire resistance. It allows the passage of air and moisture, whilst retaining the ever important fire retardant properties.
A high performance, solvent free, acrylic adhesive tape that sticks immediately upon application, critical in high-wind and vertical surface installations.
Our tape has weather proofing and moisture control, along with flame retardant properties all of which act as a barrier against the elements; water, air and vapour.
Bonds well to concrete, wood, metal including insulation boards, making our fire-retardant breathable membrane tape, extremely versatile across different aspects of the building envelope.
Applications for Fire retardant breathable membrane tape
Breather Membrane UV & Fire Resistant Tape, is a vapour permeable polyester airtight and fully watertight membrane. Our FR product is used as a perimeter membrane seal, to the external side of glazed units; windows, doors, and curtain walling. Provides an air and fully watertight seal over the construction joint which remains breathable, this enables any trapped incidental moisture or condensation to escape through to the external side of the wall construction. Can also be used to seal and protect horizontal and vertical linear joints, between sheathing boards and main structure.
Performance and benefits of FR breather membrane tape
Enhanced Fire Safety
CTA membrane tape helps to prevent/delay the spread of fire through external walls, improving the overall fire resistance of the building envelope. Fire resistant membranes help meet increasingly strict fire safety regulations, particularly in high-rise and multi-occupancy buildings.
Airtightness & Energy Efficiency
Black foil membranes often serve a dual purpose. This is due to the fact that they act as vapor barriers and airtight layers, thus helping to meet energy efficiency standards.
Weatherproofing & Moisture Control
Our FR membranes are typically waterproof, helping to protect insulation and structural components from moisture damage. This fire resistant variant allows breathability, preventing condensation build-up inside wall cavities.
Durability & UV Resistance
The black coating helps absorb UV rays and resist degradation during construction, before cladding is installed.
To achieve the best results with tapes or adhesives, we recommend using a primer for adhesives, a UV identifiable primer and our IPA cleaner degreaser with a micro lint free cloth, even when using trial kits. Surface preparation helps to achieve a long lasting, clean bond.
