Applications

SOLITEX MENTO PLUS^® is an exterior, ruggedly durable, 4-ply weather resistive barrier, with a tear-resistant reinforcement mesh suitable for dense-packing insulation without the need for exterior sheathing. It provides superior weather protection that can either stand on its own, or cover exterior sheathing for optimum protection of high performance assemblies insulated with dense-pack insulation.

Advantages

• Actively vapor open, monolithic layer of TEEE film is also extremely waterproof and airtight
• Can be used without exterior sheathing in vented rainscreens and roofs
• Very robust, used as temporary roofing and wall protection when taped with TESCON VANA
• No leaks because of tenting effect or wood tannins, unlike microporous membranes
• Living Building Challenge Compliant — Red List Free

Properties:

• Material: non-porous TEEE functional membrane
• Durability: Covered by two PP protection fleeces and includes reinforcement grid
• Water column: Resist over 8' (2.5 m) of water column to ensure protection from the elements
• Perm Rating: 38 perms (Sd-value 0.05 m) for enhanced outward drying potential
• Fire rating: Class A material per ASTM E84 test (0 FS, 85 SDI)
• UV/weather Resistance: Temporary roofing/weatherproofing of façade and roof for up to 4 months - certified by ZVDH (German roofing assoc)
