Areas of application
SOLITEX MENTO® 1000 connect provides superior weather and condensation protection for your roof under all weather conditions. With type R4 classification (NZS 2295). it is suitable to be used in self-supported applications up to and including extra high wind zones. SOLITEX MENTO® 1000 connect protects your roof and building envelope from the elements during construction while allowing any internal moisture to escape through the vapour permeable, non-porous TEEE layer. For skillion roofs, fibrous insulation can be installed hard up to the underside of the the membrane as it is non-porous. Can be used directly under metal roofing as per E2/AS1, or with a ventilated cavity as per pro clima construction details (or ASV system).
SOLITEX MENTO® 1000 connect uses connect technology and has two integrated self-adhesive strips for easy installation.
