Building
Roofing: Anticondensation felt for metal roofs
Important issues in metal roof construction:
• Ventilation
• Moisture management which is expressed in absorption
and/or in drainage capacity.
When building with roof panels ventilated but insulated, thermal shock can mean moisture condenses. When the condensation is very high, water can fall and may damage stored produce.
The humidity issues can be solved with our anticondensation nonwoven felt.
This very thin insulation (from 90 gr/m² to 140 gr/m²) will avoid the risk of dripping.
This nonwoven felt will be applied to the steel sheet on the inner side.
B-S1-D0 inflammability (on the metal)
• Materials: polyester, hydrophobic polyester
• Weight: from 70 g/m2 up to 250 g/m2
• Construction: needle punched, calendered
• Thickness: from 0.5 mm to up to 20 mm
& through-air bonded
Tile Underlays: Sound insulation
Our nonwoven products have been engineered to reduce impact noise from walking, the dragging of chairs or the dropping object.
Our felt isolates hard surface floors from the subfloor and is designed for: Corporate offices, Education, Hotel/resort residential (dry or wet rooms).
