pro clima ‘SOLITEX’ membranes

High performance wind and water-tight breather membranes for external use

'Wind-tightness is essential in order to prevent unnecessary cooling down of the insulation layer resulting in a reduction in effective U-value of the construction.

Water-tightness is essential in order to prevent rain or condensation from entering into the insulation layer resulting in a reduction in effective U-value of the construction.

Water vapour permeability is essential in order to prevent the build-up of interstitial condensation within 'warm constructions'. i.e. constructions in which the insulation is kept 'warm' by a membrane.'
