Our butyl tape is used on projects all over the world to provide better, longer-lasting protection to roofing and cladding on buildings.
As leading providers of products that include a range of butyl based solutions, we know a thing or two about how they can change buildings for the better.
Our clients routinely tell us about the positive effects our butyl tape has on their projects, but we wanted to share some of the benefits with you.
Why is HS Butyl tape important when roofing and cladding?
Our tapes allows for a better standard of airtightness and waterproofing on new builds and renovations. Predominantly, they seal the overlaps of roofing panels or joins in metal-clad buildings.
For buildings, airtightness and waterproofing are vital to ensuring the viability of the premises in the long term, reducing the risk of any avoidable damage.
What are the core benefits?
The benefits of airtightness and waterproofing include energy efficiency, the longevity of property life and meeting government legislation requirements.
With an increase in focus on energy efficiency and government guidelines getting stricter, companies can take a simple step that makes a big difference simply by using more reliable HS Butyl tape for roofing and cladding projects.
From an installation perspective, it is easy to apply and has great adhesion to a number of substrates.
