Novia Ultraviolet Lap Tape

Product Overview

Novia® Ultraviolet Lap Tape (UVLT) is a sealing and bonding tape which has a high strength acrylic dispersion adhesive, has an elastic LDPE-film carrier and is reinforced with scrim. Novia® UVLT is particularly suited for use in open facade UV breather membrane applications in walls as it has a high UV resistance. Novia® UVLT has 24 months** UV stability in open rainscreen applications with maximum joint widths up to 30mm, where ≤40% of the total area of the membrane is exposed. However, it is also suitable for overlaps and joints, on breather membranes within standard roof applications, where additional protective UV resistance is desired. Novia® UVLT is used to seal membrane overlaps which will protect against external environmental conditions and improve airtightness.

Novia® UVLT can be used with Novia Breather Membranes, such as Novia® UV Facade FR, as an edge and lap sealing tape. To fully complete a breather membrane seal and further reduce the air-leakage of the construction, this tape should be used in conjunction with Novia® Double Sided Adhesive Tape (DSLT).

Novia® UVLT can be found on NBS Chorus and NBS Source software packages. They are available for specifying as additional products, and fall within a variety of relevant clauses.
