AirOutshield™ UV Breathable Underlayment for Open Joint, Rain Screen Wall Systems
 
 
 
Features/Benefits
 • High Breathability Rate- Allows moisture within the wall system to dry rapidly, thereby reducing • Potential for mold, mildew, rot, metal corrosion and reduced insulation thermal values.
 
• UV Resistant- Resists UV that penetrates through cladding systems. Tested in accordance with the stringent DIN EN 13859-1 European standard which includes testing before and after exposure.
 
• Water Resistant- Moisture entering the wall system is quickly diverted before it can damage insulation and other components. 
 
• Durable- Tear, rip and puncture resistant which reduces repairs and related labour costs.
 
• Polyester- Provides superior resistance to the high temperatures associated with typical dark colored cladding systems. 
 
• Black- Provides enhanced aesthetics for open joint cladding systems.
