Pro Clima Releases Certified Builders Branded Wrap

Pro Clima recently teamed up with the New Zealand Certified Builders Association to develop a branded building wrap. This allows all Certified Builders to purchase the SOLITEX EXTASANA building wrap at a substantially discounted price while promoting the new Certified Builders logo.

Pro Clima also offers builders the opportunity to have their own logo printed on the SOLITEX EXTASANA subject to a minimum annual order quantity. Contact a local Pro Clima representative to discuss this further.

SOLITEX EXTASANA is a non-porous flexible building wrap that has been manufactured in Germany. The benefit of being non-porous is that it offers a much higher degree of weather tightness than micro-porous building wraps. It is not affected by timber treatments and will not wick physical water droplets through itself. The product has been tested with 10,000mm of water column pressure. At the same time, the wrap has a really low resistance to water vapour with an MVTR rating of 0.75 MNS/g, and actively transports water vapour away from the insulation and framing layer. The product is ideal for use with dark claddings as the TEEE functional layer has a melt point close to 200ºC. It has a CodeMark certificate and offers 60 days UV rating.

This is one of the few building wraps that meets all of the requirements of Table 23 in E2/AS1.
