Laticrete air and water barrier products provide structures weather protection against water damage cracking vapor wind and air to enhance building longevity save energy and increase building occupant comfort. Prosoco r guard air and water barriers are performance tested and proven to withstand extreme weather conditions. High performance air and water barriers resist air and water intrusion which reduces the amount of moisture vapor in the panels.

It not only will maximize the effectiveness of our continuous insulation but also reduce energy costs avoid potential moisture problems and increase the life of the building. Weather resistive barrier systems lead the fight against moisture penetration said brian st. A high performance air and water barrier is important to the overall effectiveness of the wall application. Our comprehensive system includes fluid applied waterproofing membranes specially formulated mortars sealing tapes and primers.

Air water barrier produces a seamless monolithic elastomeric coating and bonds directly to a wide variety of substrates. Protect your building with our waterproofing chemicals. Self adhesive air and vapor barrier membrane blueskin sa is a self adhering membrane consisting of an sbs rubberized asphalt compound laminated on a blue polyethylene film. Air barriers are essential for a high performing building envelope.

Ccw provides three types of air barriers. Provides excellent water resistance very low water vapor permeability and high flexibility. We do air barriers right for energy efficiency better buildings and healthier communities. Impermeable to air moisture vapor and water blueskin sa is designed to install easily on a variety of prepared substrates.
