Protect Zytec vapour permeable underlay

Protect Zytec is a high performance vapour permeable roof underlay. Its low vapour resistance helps to avoid the risk of harmful condensation whilst at the same time remaining completely airtight. With suitability for use across all pitched cold and warm roofs, the membrane provides a secondary line of defence against wind driven rain and snow, offering a high resistance to wind uplift to BS 5534 and wide coverage across the UK and Ireland.

Glidevale Protect has created two handy visual technical guides to help you choose the correct ventilation strategy for your projects:
