Applications

Polytex® Fassade FR is resistant to partial UV loads as may occur with a slatted facade or otherwise exposed exterior facade. The membrane is also suitable as a waterproof breathable roof membrane under tile roofs that do not close exactly (e.g. old Dutch tiles).

Installation

Polytex® Fassade FR should be applied to the outside (the cold side) of the insulation layer. The area of openings in the external façade should not exceed 20% of the façade area where each opening should not be wider (or higher) than 20 mm. Always attach Polytex® Fassade FR with stainless steel staples. Attach Polytex® Fassade FR to wooden slats. Spacing of slats: centre-to-centre 300 mm vertically, centre-to-centre 600 mm horizontally. Between the cladding and Polytex® Fassade FR at least 20 mm air cavity should be maintained. Allow Polytex® Fassade FR to extend at least 100 mm beyond the bottom line and tape to underlying structure with VASTR® Facade tape. For optimal water resistance and durability, VASTR® Butyl tape should be applied under the batten. Finish facade openings and recesses with VASTR® Facade tape.
