Description

Gerband SD2 Control Airtightness Membrane (1.5m x 50m)

Part Number:

Gerband-SD-Control-Airtight-Membrane

Product Overview

The Gerband SD Control Airtight Membrane is a high-performance vapour control layer (VCL) engineered for internal airtightness in low-energy and Passive House projects. Designed as an upgrade to the Gerband SD2, this next-generation membrane delivers superior tensile strength and elongation, ensuring maximum durability and long-term airtightness in modern building envelopes.

Its advanced multi-layer structure provides optimal vapour diffusion resistance (SD value of 2.3 m ± 0.2 m), helping to regulate internal moisture levels while maintaining the integrity of the building fabric. The membrane is easy to install, compatible with all Gerband adhesive tapes and sealing accessories, and ideal for use on timber-frame, steel-frame, and masonry constructions.

Key Features

  • Enhanced tensile strength (≥ 120 N/50 mm lengthwise, ≥ 100 N/50 mm crosswise) for superior durability
  • Reliable long-term airtightness when used with Gerband adhesive tapes and sealants
  • SD value of 2.3 m ± 0.2 m for optimal moisture regulation and building protection
  • High flexibility and elongation (65%) to simplify installation around joints and penetrations
  • Suitable for Passive House and low-energy building applications
  • Compatible with Gerband airtight system components for full system integrity

Frequently Asked Questions

  • What are airtightness products used for?

    Airtightness products are used to help seal gaps, joints and penetrations in building and ventilation projects. They can support better control of air leakage around ductwork, windows, membranes and construction details.

  • Why is airtightness important for ventilation systems?

    Airtightness helps reduce unwanted air leakage, which can support better ventilation performance and overall building efficiency. In projects using MVHR, airtightness is especially important because the system is designed to work best in a controlled building envelope.
