Non combustible, high-performance reflective breather membrane.
A non-combustible reflective breather membrane that is designed to enhance the thermal performance of walls and is suitable for use in many external wall types (timber frame, metal stud, concrete etc.) for buildings which pose a higher risk for fire safety: residential blocks of flats, student accommodations, care homes, sheltered housing, hospitals, dormitories in boarding schools with a storey above 18 m in height and high risk residential buildings (HRRB).
PhotonWrap-A1 is a non-combustible, high-performance reflective breather membrane specifically designed to enhance thermal performance of external walls whilst minimizing the risk of interstitial condensation. Its durable design gives enhanced protection of external walls during the construction process and is suitable for buildings over 18m tall.
