Learn moreThis high-performance vapour barrier from Alutrix is made from reinforced composite aluminium foil with a steadfast self-adhesive backing and removable release film. Ideal for all internal conditions, both standard and exceedingly high humidity environments.
With incredibly high vapour resistance, this vapour barrier can accommodate extreme internal conditions, including bathrooms, kitchens, wet industrial processes, breweries, sports halls, swimming pools and much more. Its exceptionally high tear resistance ensures it can withstand foot trafficking without puncturing, which is advantageous for use on profiled metal decking.

Question:
Can you use this vapour barrier and then torch down underlay directly on to this and then torch down cap sheet? Basically can this take a flame
Answer:
The Alutrix 600 Self Adhesive Vapour Barrier is designed to be a high-quality vapour barrier for various applications, including ceilings, cold roofs, walls, metal roofs, and other types of roofs. However, it's not explicitly stated in the provided product specifications whether it's safe to apply a flame directly to the product for torch down underlay and cap sheet purposes. It's recommended to check the manufacturer's guidelines or consult with a professional installer to ensure the safe and correct use of the product. It might be necessary to contact our technical team or the supplier for more specific information regarding this application.
Question:
Can this be used on internal walls to help prevent mould?
Answer:
Yes, the Alutrix 600 Self Adhesive Vapour Barrier can indeed be applied to internal walls. It's designed to provide a barrier against moisture, which can help in preventing the growth of mould. However, it's essential to ensure that the wall is properly prepared and the barrier is correctly installed for the best results. You may want to refer to the installation guide for detailed instructions.

Question:
Would this product be suitable to lay on a warm flat roof? I am looking to install a vapor membrane between the 11mm OSB board and 100mm celotex.
Answer:
Technically yes this will work
Question:
How much does the 30m roll of Alutrix 600 vapour barrier weigh (in Kg)?
Answer:
approx 36kg
Question:
Do you require an overlap, this is for a flat roof.
Answer:
Yes you would still need to over lap it
Question:
Is this product suitable and/or nesasery? I have insulated the timber framed gable wall with 100mm foil lined celotex insulation. Expanding foam sealed and foil taped. Do I need to put a vapor control barrier up before plasterboard? I foolishly bought non foil backed plasterboard thinking the sealed foil on the tape and insulation would be enough?
