SlopeShield Plus SA
Often CLT panels are shipped simply with loose sheets, offering little to no moisture protection.
SlopeShield Plus SA is easily applied at the factory around the entire panel, offering protection during transport and while being erected.
Why Use A Vapor Permeable Material?
SlopeShield Plus SA Floor/Deck Protection
| SlopeShield Plus SA Protection Benefits |
- Resists bulk water intrusion
- High drying capacity: 30 perms
- Permanent installation works in conjunction with acoustical mat and concrete topping slab
- Apply in wet or freezing weather
- Tough and durable to tools and machinery
- Excellent traction, slip resistant
- Six month UV and climate exposure
- Monolithically covers seams, splines
- Integrates with VaproShield’s wall membranes for post/column and beam protection
SlopeShield Plus SA installed with VaproTape will protect the mass timber floor or deck from bulk water infiltration
Durable to foot traffic and heavy equipment, SlopeShield Plus SA can withstand 6 months UV and climate exposure.
SlopeShield Plus SA even handles ponding water which can be easily swept away.
SlopeShield Plus SA: Tough and Durable
End grains are especially susceptible to water intrusion. By allowing SlopeShield Plus SA to overhang the structure, end grains are protected when water is squeegeed from the deck after and during rain events.
By protecting the interior floors with SlopeShield Plus SA, work can commence on the lower floors, helping to keep the project on schedule.
WallShield IT: Protects Framework
| WallShield IT Protection Benefits |
- Temporary protection for framework and beams
- Protects against moisture infiltration, reducing structural compromise from wetting
- Guards against UV damage, mold, and wood discoloration
- Cutting-edge drying capacity, 123 perms, promotes rapid drying
- Durable and abrasion resistant
- Quickly installs in all weather conditions
- Easily removed, reused, or recycled
WallShield IT (green) temporarily protects beams and framework during construction from moisture infiltration, UV damage, wood discoloration, and is easily removed at the end of the project to showcase the beauty of the wood structure.
PanelShield SA: Protects Walls
PanelShield SA covered the rough openings and walls, protecting the inside construction materials against bulk water intrusion.
| PanelShield SA Protection Benefits |
- Permanent vapor permeable air barrier wall protection
- Extremely durable, use to temporarily cover rough openings
- 12 months UV and climate exposure, ideal for long-term projects
- Aggressive adhesive firmly grips to all common substrates
- Superb drying capacity, 26 perms
- All weather installation, including below freezing
- Does NOT require primer
- Cost effective permeable polyester air barrier/WRB solution
