Taped Breather Membranes

What are taped breather membranes?

Taped breather membranes are a type of roofing technology used to protect both commercial buildings and homes from water and vapour ingress and damage. 

They are made of a lightweight, flexible material that is coated with a layer of adhesive on one side. 

The adhesive allows the waterproof and vapour-proof membrane to be easily attached to the surface of a building, typically under the roofing material.

What are the benefits of using taped breather membranes? 

The features and benefits of taped breather membranes include:

• A benefit of using taped breather membranes is that they provide a moisture barrier. This is essential in areas with high levels of rain or snowfall, as water can damage the property, so taped breather membranes also help save on repair costs. 
• They also allow water vapour to escape from the building, which reduces the risk of mould and mildew growth. Mould and mildew can grow easier in humid environments.
• Easy to install and maintain- Once cut down to the dimension you require, you can use the adhesive to easily apply the membrane. The membrane can be exposed to the elements without breaking down. 
• Reduces energy costs by providing insulation and helping to regulate the temperature inside the building.
• Improves indoor air quality by preventing the infiltration of pollutants and allergens from the outside.
• Tapered breather membranes are durable and long-lasting
• A cost-effective waterproofing solution.
• Compliant with British Standards

Overall, taped breather membranes are a valuable and effective building material that can help to protect buildings from water damage, reduce the risk of mould and mildew growth, and improve indoor air quality. They are also relatively easy to install and maintain, making them a popular choice for builders and contractors.
