VaporBlock Plus® Series (VBP20)

Imagine constructing a building only to discover later that moisture and gas infiltration has compromised its integrity. The effects and costs can be severe, including structural damage, mold growth, and dangerous indoor air quality. Enter Viaflex VaporBlock Plus, an EVOH underslab barrier engineered to provide industry-leading protection against moisture and gas for your projects.

Features

Seven-Layer Co-Extruded Barrier: The Viaflex VaporBlock Plus consists of a seven-layer co-extruded barrier made from state-of-the-art polyethylene and EVOH resins. This ensures industry-leading resistance to moisture and gas permeation.

High Impact Strength: Incorporating EVOH resins in the VaporBlock Plus provides unmatched impact strength, making it the perfect underslab and wall barrier.

Low Permeability: Viaflex VaporBlock Plus is more than 100 times less permeable than typical high-performance polyethylene vapor retarders against Methane, Radon, and other harmful VOCs.

Easy Installation: Viaflex VaporBlock Plus is designed with the installer in mind. It is lightweight and easy to handle. No special tools or equipment are needed to install it, which simplifies the process and reduces labor costs.

Environmental Resistance: This engineered barrier resists various environmental conditions, including extreme temperatures and chemical exposure in brownfield construction areas.
