Glidevale Protect provides combined membrane solution for exclusive housing development

A selection of Glidevale Protect’s products have been specified for an exclusive residential development at Matlock Road in Wessington, Derbyshire, demonstrating how a coordinated approach to the design of the building envelope can enhance the energy efficiency of new homes.

Protect TF200 Thermo, a high-performance reflective external wall breather membrane, has been integrated into Oakworth Timber Engineering’s Varytherm timber frame system, ensuring excellent thermal performance and contributing to improved energy efficiency. Protect TF200, a non-reflective breather membrane has been applied to the spandrel panels, providing weather protection during the construction phase and reducing the risk of interstitial condensation. In addition, Protect VP200, a high-performance, vapour permeable pitched roofing underlay, has been installed across all roofs to minimise the risk of roof space condensation in line with BS 5250.
