Thermakraft CoverTek 405 is a fire retardant self supporting synthetic roofing underlay for use under all claddings. Consisting of a microporous water resistant film, sandwiched between two layers of mould and shrink resistant spun-bonded polyolefin. It is intended for use as an alternative to the conventional kraft paper roof underlays, which are fixed over timber or steel framed roofs in order to limit the entry of wind into the roof cavity and to assist in the moisture management of the cladding system. Ideal for use when underlay will be left exposed as branding will not be visible
