Sealing overlaps and joints in breather membranes: Novia Breather Membrane Lap Tape is good to use for sealing overlaps and joints in breather membranes because it provides a durable, airtight seal that enhances the performance of the membrane in external and roof constructions. By securely bonding membrane layers, it prevents water ingress and air leakage, which helps to maintain the thermal and moisture control functions of the breather membrane. This is particularly beneficial for ensuring long-term protection in timber frame, masonry, and other building types that rely on a continuous and secure barrier system.

What is Novia Breather Membrane Lap Tape?

Novia Breather Membrane Lap Tape is a high-performance adhesive tape specifically designed for sealing overlaps and joints in breather membranes. It provides a strong, reliable seal to ensure that membranes remain watertight and air-tight while allowing vapour permeability.

How do I apply Novia Breather Membrane Lap Tape?

Novia Breather Membrane Lap Tape should be applied directly to the overlap or joint between breather membrane sheets. Ensure that the surfaces are clean, dry, and free from dust or debris. Press the tape firmly along the seam to create a secure bond, and use a roller if necessary to ensure even adhesion.

Can Novia Breather Membrane Lap Tape be used in all weather conditions?

Novia Breather Membrane Lap Tape is weather-resistant and can be applied in a range of weather conditions. However, for optimal adhesion, it is best to apply the tape in dry conditions where the surface is clean and free from moisture.

How does Novia Breather Membrane Lap Tape improve membrane performance?

Novia Breather Membrane Lap Tape ensures that the seams and overlaps in breather membranes are securely sealed, maintaining the membrane's watertight and air-tight properties. This improves the overall performance of the membrane, enhancing both moisture protection and vapour permeability while helping to maintain the building's energy efficiency.
