Description

This advanced membrane, Novia VC8 Reflective, is designed to function as a reflective and airtight vapour check and convection barrier with an Sd value appropriate for insulated structures such as walls, roofs and floors in timber-framed dwellings.

Unlike traditional reflective vapour barriers with excessively high vapour resistances, Novia VC8 Reflective protects the building envelope from any damage and improves indoor air quality without suffocating the structure. This is due to its chosen Sd value of 8m.

Features & Benefits: Novia VC8 Reflective Air Leakage Barrier & Vapour Check - 50m x 1.5m

  • Roll size of 75m²
  • 50m length x 1.5m width x 0.4mm thickness
  • 77gsm weight
  • Temperature resistance from -40°C to +80°C
  • 84% reflectivity
  • 8m Sd-Value
  • Limits unwanted condensation within wall and ceiling structures
  • Manages water vapour diffusion
  • Reflective and airtight

CE Approved and compliant with CPR standard, this product delivers the key attributes of a reflective VCL, including improved ? values, interstitial water vapour condensation management and the prevention of unwanted air-leakage. Vapour Control Layers allow you to manage how naturally produced water vapour transitions through the building envelope as a result of general building use. Novia’s VCL membranes work for numerous construction designs with specific solutions for all sorts of applications and needs.

Installation

  • To optimise performance, install VCLs on the interior (warm side) of walls, roofs, or insulated frames, and use Novia external breather membranes on the exterior (cold side). Ensure effective installation by using Novia tapes as part of a two-tape sealing system for all VCL products. Incorrect installation and tape usage can lead to condensation issues in finished buildings, as well as undesirable outcomes.
  • Achieve 100% sealing to the structure by using double-sided butyl tapes and either foil or BOPP lap tape for a professional installation. The wider the tape, the better the seal's strength and ease of installation. Choose a tape based on your specific application and budget. Novia recommends 30mm wide butyl tape and 60mm Metallised BOPP tape for standard VCL installations.

Standards & Certification

  • Reaction to fire: Class F to EN 13501-1
  • Certification: CE approved to EN 13984 and CPR complaint

Please note:

  • The use of Novia compatible butyl and foil sealing tapes are advised to ensure a complete barrier integrity throughout the entire life of the product. Novia VC8 should be used in combination with Novia breather membranes to provide an air-tight and vapour resistant system.
