Outstanding Moisture Stopping Performance with our Vapour Tight Insulation

Our vapour tight insulation is exceptionally engineered to offer protection against moisture issues, ensuring the longevity and durability of construction projects. This advanced insulation vapour barrier provides an impenetrable barrier that prevents water vapour from entering into walls, floors, and roofs to prevent mould growth, structural damage and energy loss. Whether you’re working on a commercial or residential property, our insulation stands as a reliable shield against the harshest of environmental conditions and reduces energy consumption.

Incorporating cutting-edge materials and technology, our vapour tight insulation not only excels in moisture resistance but also overall thermal performance in reducing heat loss. This dual functionality ensures that your buildings remain comfortable and energy-efficient throughout the year. By minimising heat transfer and condensation, our insulation contributes to significant energy savings and a more sustainable footprint by improving air movement, aligning with modern building standards, energy efficiency and environmental regulations.

Choosing our vapour tight insulation materials means investing in peace of mind and superior performance. Our products undergo rigorous testing to meet and exceed industry benchmarks, guaranteeing durability and effectiveness over time. With easy installation, and long-lasting benefits, our building materials and solutions provide cost-effective vapour diffusion and efficient ways to protect your property from moisture-related issues, ensuring a safer, healthier, and more efficient living or working environment.

Tight Vapour Insulation FAQs

Where should vapour tight insulation be installed?

Vapour insulation barriers can be installed in, or around, walls, floors and ceilings to prevent moisture content from spreading and potentially causing water damage that can lead to structural damage or mould. Any interior walls or boundaries can install vapour tight insulation to reduce air and vapour leakage.

How thick should a vapour barrier be?

Vapour barriers should be between 6 mil in cold climates to 20 mil in thickness in warmer climates to effectively cover the area and create the desired moisture barrier. 20 mil vapour control layers are often the most heavy-duty and puncture-resistant options in homes and commercial building structures.

What is the difference between a moisture barrier and a vapour barrier?

Both moisture and vapour resistance barriers are designed to keep moisture out of your home and can be purchased in various materials, yet there are noticeable differences between them. Moisture barriers are designed to keep running liquid water out while vapour barrier membranes are designed to keep out gaseous water such as condensation and vapour.

How do I know if I need a vapour barrier?

Many signs can indicate the need for a vapour barrier in a home or commercial building. Mould on the walls or ceilings is the most common sign, followed by water stains and dampness of carpets, foundation walls and ceilings.
