Novia 2.7m Building Wrap Wall Breather
Our 2.7m entry level breather membrane for use in insulated wall applications
Product Overview
Novia® Building Wrap Breather Membrane is an entry level 2.7m x 100m wall breather membrane. The product is a lightweight breather membrane designed for use in all insulated wall applications. Novia® Building Wrap is a Class W2 water resistant membrane, which meets EN 13859-2 for walls and also has a high air and vapour breathability. It also complies with EN 13501-1 fire classification grade E. The product is completely black on both sides, with no text or images, except for a 150mm overlap line. Available in other colours subject to MOQ and additional lead times.
Novia® Building Wrap meets the requirements for UKCA marking, originally introduced under the 2013 Construction Products Regulations with CE marking. Under this European directive, all products covered by a current hEN (harmonised European Norm) must comply with the new standard. Third party accreditation is no longer sufficient. This has been adapted to UKCA following the UK departure from the EU.
For high specification wall breather applications we offer Novia® Black+ Construction Wrap. It is a 2.7m x 100m, tri-laminate wall breather, which has excellent Class W1 water resistance but still provides high breathability.
For a material with higher fire rating, please see our Novia FR Breather Membrane which is Class B-s1,d0 fire rated.

Installation Tips
Installation guidelines can be found on individual product datasheets using the links on this page. To install Novia breather membranes, we recommend using two tape sealing system to improve airtightness.
Our Double Sided Adhesive Tape is used between laps of the breather membrane, and one of our single sided overlap tapes, such as Breather Membrane Lap Tape (BMLT), is used to complete the seal, improve airtightness and keep down any excess membrane which may get caught in the wind.
