EXTERNALLY INSULATED MASONRY WALL (DCT VULCANWOOL & PROCTORPASSIVE WRAPTITE)
Masonry wall made water and airtight by the self-adhered vapour permeable ProctorPassive Wraptite SA, externally insulated with a non-combustible Vulcanwool mineral fibre insulation, protected by a rainscreen cladding supported by the Nvelope engineered helping hand sub-framing system. The insulation is mechanically fixed to the masonry structure with minimal thermal bridging, to form a continuous external insulation layer. As the Vulcanwool insulation is deemed non-combustible, this solution is recommended for type A or B non-combustible wall construction.

DCT VulcanWool is a non-combustible high density mineral rock fibre stonewool insulation for use as external grade insulation with water shedding characteristics, designed for use in ventilated rainscreen facades and other thermal and acoustic wall, roof, floor and ceiling applications in residential and commercial buildings.
ProctorPassive Wraptite Self Adhesive (SA) is a light duty vapour permeable membrane for wall and metal roof application functioning as water and air barrier in one innovative vapour permeable self-adhering product.
Nvelope Rainscreen Back Framing simplifies the complexity of modern building facades using a unique ‘helping hand’ bracketing system which is fixed to the substrate at set vertical and horizontal separations. Suitable for the most demanding facade materials, our range of Nvelope brackets, rails and rainscreen support systems are safe, economic and effective.
