FPS® Weathertight® membranes are permeable, allowing moisture vapour out of the construction during the build phase and for the life of the building. All our building membranes are considered vapour open, allowing faster drying, speeding up the build time.
All FPS® Weathertight® membranes are classified as W1 waterproof, with water column tests of between 1500mm and 5500mm (far in excess of the building code requirement of 20mm). FPS® Weathertight® membranes will not leak or wick moisture and have all passed the 24 hour water streaming test.
The FPS® Weathertight® System is able to be used in all New Zealand wind zones, on roofs and walls (BRE Test Report 301-688 issue 2, 29th February 2015). The wind pressures on the roof are far greater than that on the walls, please see the table to choose the appropriate product.
FPS® Weathertight® wall and roof membranes have an AS1530 – part 2 flammability index of not greater than 5 and therefore meet the requirements of NZBC Acceptable Solutions.
FPS® Weathertight® membranes are tested and certified for UV exposure for up to 90 days.
FPS Products for Roofs & Walls
Membrane is a selective barrier; it allows some things to pass through but stops others. In the case of FPSs membranes such things are water, air and water vapour molecules and particles.
Reinforced tape, with a split backing for easy application and an amazingly strong adhesive. It will easily stick to steel, aluminium, PVC, plasterboard, wood, brick, plaster, concrete and our Eurotop underlays.
Frame Protection seals are simple to install, highly adhesive and completely airtight and meant for round or rectangular pipes, cables or conduits when passing through underlay barriers.

FPS Weathertight system is an easy process to install as a wrap. The tapes for windows and door openings are easy to use and the tape sticks very well, even on a slight wet product. I have been in the trade for more than 30 years, but I have never seen a better wrap product than this.

We have been using the FPS system for the past 8 months and seen a remarkable difference in keeping the house dry through the building process. We were able to keep the build moving on the interior with the build wrap.
