More Information
Permo Frame is Klober's strong, vapour-permeable, single-layer house wrap membrane for use on timber and steel-framed walls. The house wrap is a wall breather membrane that can be used behind the vertical cladding, fixed directly to insulation or sheathing with no ‘tent’ effect. The vapour permeable wall membrane allows the wall structure to breathe, whilst it is windtight and draught-free, protecting the timber and insulation during construction. Permo Frame membrane can help to reduce energy loss when used in conjunction with Klober’s range of airtightness products.
