It is the highest performing triple laminate vapour permeable roof underlay available on the market today.

A moisture vapour permeability of 2409 g/m2/day and water vapour resistance of 0.09MNs/g with the added benefit of air permeability confirms its high performance.
Roofshield is compatible with the main types of timber treatments used today on rafters, soft wood sarking boards and tile battens.
