Product overviewHere at Intelligent Membranes, we have a range specifically for retrofitting airtightness and vapour control. The Retrofit Airtightness Spray (Passive Purple Retrofit) is designed for vapour control and energy efficiency, ideal for retrofitting projects. As a liquid membrane it adheres to the surface it is applied to, impregnating and creating an airtight substrate that fills holes, cracks, penetration leaks and problem areas. The formulation is environmentally friendly and delivers certified performance standards.
Passive Purple Retrofit — key benefits- Liquid-applied airtight membrane that adheres and impregnates substrates, reducing damage risk compared with paper membranes
- Designed for retrofit airtightness and vapour control to improve energy efficiency and internal environment
- Application by spray or roller (spray/roller product)
