FIBRANskin VENT SILVER | Breathable and reflective membrane for pitched tiled roofs
Pitched roof waterproofing and insulationDescription
FIBRANskin VENT SILVER is a breathable waterproofing membrane with a reflective metallic coating, manufactured in accordance with EN 13859-1:2010 and EN 13859-2:2010 — for roofs and vertical elements. The combination that sets it apart: water vapour diffusion resistance Sd = 0.03 m (water vapour passes freely) combined with an emissivity of 0.10 and a thermal resistance of free air up to 0.57 m²K/W in accordance with EN ISO 6946 (infrared radiation is reflected). Water resistance class W1 with a water column of 2.3 m — the highest in the range. Airflow resistance ≤0.05 m³/(m²·h·50 Pa), also the highest in the range. Mass 83 g/m², effective thickness 0.225/0.225 mm, temperature range -40 °C to +100 °C, UV exposure up to 4 months. Roll size 1.50 × 50 m (75 m²). 25-year warranty.
Overview
Key Features
Reflective performance
- Emissivity 0.10 (range 0.08–0.12), EN 15976
- Thermal resistance of free air ≤0.57 m²K/W in horizontal flow, EN ISO 6946
- Enhanced reflection of infrared and ultraviolet solar radiation without impeding water vapour diffusion
Moisture management
