WATERSHIELD ALU Vapor-Barrier Facade and Roof Wrap
WATERSHIELD ALU
Vapor Barrier & Waterproofing Membrane
(Reflective Thermal Insulation – For Façade and Roof Applications)
WATERSHIELD ALU is a high-performance membrane produced with a unique manufacturing technology in a three-layer structure, used in the construction sector as a vapor barrier (moisture barrier) and full waterproofing membrane.
The product consists of Polypropylene (PP) in the lower layer, Polyethylene (PE) in the middle layer, and Polyester Aluminized Foil in the upper layer. The reflective surface reduces heat loss in free air cavities and contributes to energy efficiency. Its structure that does not allow water vapor transmission effectively eliminates moisture and condensation risks within the building envelope.
WATERSHIELD ALU is a professional vapor barrier and waterproofing membrane solution developed for façade and roof applications, especially in areas where vapor and moisture control are critical.
Advantages
- Superior insulation performance against water, vapor, and moisture
- Does not allow water vapor transmission (full vapor barrier)
- Reduces heat loss in air cavities thanks to reflective surface
- Structure providing complete waterproofing
- Improves hot–cold air efficiency with wind barrier effect
- Durable, flexible, and long-lasting structure
- 100% Domestic Production – Made in Türkiye
Application Method
- In façade and roof systems, it should be laid with at least 10 cm overlap depending on the application
- Joints should be sealed using appropriate tapes
- Opened products and application surfaces must be free from dust, dirt, and moisture
- After installation, the membrane should be covered within a maximum of 30 days (1 month)
- UV resistance can be increased upon request, extending the exposure period
Areas of Use
- Standing seam roof systems
- Ventilated and non-ventilated roof systems
- Façade applications
- Areas in building walls where complete blocking of water and vapor is required
