Perfect for sloping roofs with full sarking that require high moisture management.
Fabtile Legend is a robust three-layer, highly breathable roofing membrane designed for sloping roofs with full sarking. It provides superior performance in managing moisture and preventing condensation build-up, making it ideal for complex roofing systems. Its durable construction ensures long-lasting protection against the elements, offering high vapor permeability combined with exceptional waterproofing and UV resistance, perfect for long-term residential and commercial projects.
Process Overview
Roof membranes are produced through a specialized laminated nonwoven process. Initially, spunbond polypropylene is created using the traditional spunbond method. This is followed by a lamination process, where a breathable film, made from either Polyethylene (PE) or Thermoplastic Polyurethane (TPU), is sandwiched between layers of nonwoven fabric. This unique structure provides both waterproofing and breathability, making it ideal for roofing applications.
Machines Used
- Spunbond Extrusion Machines: Create the nonwoven polypropylene layers.
- Lamination Machines: Bond the breathable film between the fabric layers.
- UV-Treatment and Heat-Sealing Systems: Ensure durability and waterproofing.
