DuPont™ EAS1FELT™

 

We are pleased to announce the launch of DuPont™ EAS1FELT™, the new non-breather membrane exclusive to SIG Roofing outlets.

Approved by the British Board of Agreement and awarded the BBA Certificate No. 03/3992, DuPont™ EAS1FELT™ is easy to use, safe and secure. It is clean, light weight, easy to handle and easy to mark with chalk.

It also is printed with the product name and overlay lines on the topside to aid installation and alignment.

It incorporates the latest advances in roofing membrane technology, making it very strong and extremely weather tight. It is manufactured in three layers, comprising two UV stabilised polypropylene fabric layers fused together around a polypropylene film.


Safe

DuPont™ EAS1FELT™ roof tile and slate underlay offers a slip resistant surface for increased safely during installation

Strong

The United Kingdom is exposed to wind uplift forces and DuPont™ EAS1FELT™ has good resistance to tearing and remains flexible at low temperatures.

Weather tight

Research by DuPont™ shows that DuPont™ EAS1FELT™ will resist the passage of water and wind-blown snow and dust into the interior of a building, under all conditions to be found in a roof constructed in accordance with the relevant clauses of BS 553401:1997*

DuPont™ EAS1FELT™ also resists penetration of liquid water to a head of 6 metres and consequently may be used as temporary waterproofing prior to the installation of slates or tiles (the period of such use should be kept to a minimum).

Durable

DuPont™ EAS1FELT™ will last the life of the roof and is UV and thermally stable. An eaves guard protection system should be used at eaves level.
