Fabric First and DuPont™ Tyvek® 

DuPont™ Tyvek® and AirGuard® advanced membranes have been benefitting construction for many years, but sometimes there can be confusion about their properties, purpose and installation. For example, are they BBA certified? Do I need to ventilate the roof and do they comply with Building Regulations? Are counter battens required? Are they BS5534:2014 compliant and do they offer unrestricted use? Do I need taped laps? How long do they last? What about air & vapour control layers?  All reasonable questions which can be answered by our technical support service or by a CDP presentation from DuPont.

DuPont™ Tyvek® and AirGuard® CPD modules include:

  • Roof, wall and AVCL
  • Roof and AVCL
  • Wall and AVCL
