SOLITEX MENTO 5000
Heavy-weight roofing underlay
Advantages
- Maximal flexibility in planning construction schedules thanks to 6 months of outdoor exposure
- Ensures reliable building components: highly diffusion-open and maximum protection against driving rain and hail
- Dry building components: pore-free TEEE functional membrane actively transports moisture to the outside
- Permanent protection thanks to the high resistance to ageing and heat of the TEEE membrane
- Reliable during the construction phase: suitable as a temporary covering during the construction period
Areas of application
For use as a diffusion-open roofing underlay on roof sheathing, MDF and wood-fibre underlay panels, and over all thermal insulation materials.
