The Gerband SD Control Airtight Vapour Control Membrane – Fixed Sd is a high-performance solution designed to provide reliable airtightness and vapour control in roof and wall constructions. Suitable for internal walls and sloped roofs in new builds and retrofit projects, it offers a fixed vapour resistance level of Sd 2.3m for consistent indoor climate and energy efficiency.
As a reliable vapour control layer, this membrane prevents condensation, protecting structures from mildew growth and structural damage. Installed indoors as a vapour barrier (AVCL), it features excellent ageing resistance for long-term durability. The product meets CE standards (DIN EN 13984) and complies with EnEv requirements for both new construction and refurbishment projects.
