Insulating breather membrane and weather barrier

SKYTECH

Air-tightness and building protection

With the generalization of Low-energy buildings, air-tightness of the building envelope is a major concern to reach internal thermal comfort and achieve significant energy savings. Skytech creates a closed envelope, increases wind-tightness, reflects 95% of radiation and avoids thermal bridges for a better comfort in summer as well as during winter.

Thanks to its patented technology, Skytech makes it possible to install a breather membrane and an insulating material at the same time while ensuring that the building remains breathable (allowing the water vapour to escape).

Beside its thermal benefits and thanks to its high tear resistance and its high density (105 kg/m3), Skytech alone gives a 16 dB sound reduction performance.

Skytech, suitable for new build or refurbishment projects

Skytech is the only roofing membrane which is:

  Waterproof

  Non combustible

  Vapour-permeable

  Tear resistant

By creating a closed envelope on the roof and under cladding, Skytech:

  Avoids thermal bridge

  Avoids safety gaps around chimney ducts.

  Improves existing or new insulation

For a successful application

Skytech can be used for all kinds of pitched roofs (roof tiles, slates …) or wall claddings (wood, PVC, sprayed rendering…). Skytech provides both weather barrier and insulation functions. Ideal for refurbishment or new build projects. Skytech is vapour-permeable so it can be applied in direct contact with wood sheeting or any insulating materials. For outdoor installation, we strongly recommend to wear UV400 sun glasses.
