Lamination & Coating
BreathTech® vapor permeable membranes can be adapted to meet unique construction needs and many building material combinations.
BreathTech® Technology
- Highly bondable composition allows thermal and adhesive lamination for multi-layer structures
- Highly porous material supports full coating of adhesive or attachment of other substrates while still maintaining breathability (permeability)
Attributes
- Robust self-adhesion to many construction substrates, while still meeting optimal moisture management requirements
Results
- Nonwovens attached to BreathTech® membranes can create a durable structure that can withstand job site installation
- Adhesive coatings can be fully applied, increasing adhesion strength without sacrificing key moisture management requirements
- No primer is needed to create adhesion, resulting in potential savings of labor cost, material cost and time
- Full coating of adhesive allows maximum stickiness in many climates
- Self-adhesive water barrier membranes can be quickly applied at the job site, increasing project velocity to next build step
