Description ME009 is a breathable membrane made from non-woven water-repellent polypropylene with a special UV coating. Colour Black Packaging item No. Roll Width Roll Length RoIIs/Box Technical Information Property Grammage Thickness Dimesional Accuracy Reaction to Fire Resistance to Water Penetration After Ageing Maximum Tensile Strength - Lengthwise/ Crosswise After Ageing Elongation of Break -Lengthwise/Crosswise After Ageing Tear Growth Resistance / Nail Shank Vapour Difusion -Equivalent Air Layer Thickness Air Permeability Service Temperature Flexural Behaviour in Cold Conditions UV Resistance Storage Shelf Life 12 months Store in shaded, dry conditions and avoid stacking pallets 1 year when stored as recommended in original unopened packaging Application • Apply the membrane horizontally, starting from the bottom to ensure natural water run-off, fixing each sheet with staples to the sheathing board or other substrate. • When applying the membrane from the roll, to achieve maximum UV stability, the outer "white" face of the membrane must be orientated towards the structure, leaving the black face exposed to UV light. • For fixing, a supporting area of minimum 40 mm is required. • For correct joint formation, a minimum overlap of 100 mm is required. Seal the overlap with ME315 or ME316 tape for a wind tight connection. • Mechanical damage, penetrations or connections should be sealed with ME315 or ME316 depending on the application. If unsure, please contact CPG UK for advice. Breather Membrane UV Wide Format Usage / Purpose ME009 is a highly breathable construction membrane that provides an effective waterproof layer for building fagades. It is designed in a wide format making it ideal for use in the modular construction industry. Key Benefits • Wide format - ideal for modular constuction • UV resistant - 12 months UV stable • W1 rating for resistance to water penetration • Non-branded, plain black finish - suitable for visible applications • Wide range of in-service temperature resistance • Highly vapour open • Air-tight and weather-tight

illbruck making it perfect. • For a typical installation it is likely that ME009 breather membrane will be lapped over the external window sealing membrane (such as ME501), and similarly overlaps should be sealed using the above options. In some circumstances however it is perfectly acceptable to seal the window membrane to ME009. • When likely to be exposed to weather for an extended period of time, it is recommended that the membrane is adhered around the full perimeter. This prevents damage due to ingress of wind behind the membrane. It is also beneficial to apply dabs of adhesive at...
