Novia Black+ Ultra 102gsm is a lightweight, entry-grade roof and wall breather membrane designed to provide a cost-effective solution for pitched cold roofs, pitched warm roofs and insulated wall applications. Its 3-layer laminate construction incorporates a microporous core, combining high vapour permeability with high water resistance, good tensile strength and good nail tear strength.
Dual approved for roof and wall applications, Novia Black+ Ultra is CE compliant to EN 13859-1 for pitched roofs and EN 13859-2 for walls. It also achieves Class E reaction to fire to EN 13501-1.
Supplied as a 1.5m x 50m roll, each roll provides 75m² nominal coverage.
Key benefits include:
Novia Black+ Ultra is designed as a versatile, low-cost breather membrane for applications including:
Its dual roof and wall approval means a single membrane can be used across multiple compatible areas of a building project.
Novia Black+ Ultra is positioned as an entry-grade, low-cost membrane within the Novia range.
Despite its economical specification, the membrane provides the essential combination of properties required for appropriate roof and wall applications, including:
This makes Black+ Ultra a practical option where a straightforward, cost-effective breather membrane is required.
Novia Black+ Ultra uses a 3-layer laminate construction with a microporous core.
This construction provides the combination of water resistance and vapour permeability required from an external breather membrane.
The membrane is designed to resist external moisture while allowing water vapour to pass through its structure as part of an appropriately designed roof or wall construction.
Novia Black+ Ultra is highly vapour permeable.
This allows water vapour within an appropriate roof or wall construction to pass through the membrane towards the outside of the building.
The complete construction should still be designed and installed according to the project’s condensation control and ventilation requirements.
Novia describes Black+ Ultra as highly waterproof, providing a high level of resistance to water penetration while retaining its vapour permeability.
Correct installation remains essential, particularly at:
Suitable Novia speciality tapes should be used where required by the installation specification.
Novia Black+ Ultra is designed for use within:
For roof applications, the membrane is CE compliant to:
EN 13859-1
Its lightweight construction also makes the membrane easy to handle and position during installation.
Black+ Ultra is also designed for insulated wall applications.
For wall applications, the membrane is CE compliant to:
EN 13859-2
This dual approval allows the same membrane to be used across compatible roof and wall applications where the Black+ Ultra specification meets the requirements of the project.
At 102gsm, Novia Black+ Ultra provides a lightweight membrane specification designed for straightforward handling and installation.
The lightweight construction is particularly useful when working with large membrane sheets across roof and wall areas.
Despite its entry-grade positioning, the membrane also provides good tensile and nail tear strength.
Novia Black+ Ultra provides good tensile and nail tear strength.
These characteristics help the membrane withstand normal handling and installation requirements when correctly fitted within an appropriate roof or wall construction.
Novia Black+ Ultra achieves:
Class E to EN 13501-1
This is the stated reaction-to-fire classification for the membrane.
Where a higher fire classification is required, Novia recommends its FR Fire Resistant Breather Membrane.
The fire performance requirements of the complete roof or wall construction should always be considered when selecting the appropriate membrane.
Novia specifies that Black+ Ultra should be installed in accordance with the relevant BS 5534 UV guidance.
The membrane should therefore be covered within the appropriate construction programme and should not be treated as a permanently exposed external finish.
Installation should follow the current Novia technical information for the product.
Novia recommends installing Black+ Ultra with the appropriate Novia speciality membrane tapes.
Depending on the application and required detailing, compatible tapes can be used to seal:
The required taping arrangement should follow Novia’s installation instructions and the project specification.
Novia Black+ Ultra is:
There is no printed text or imagery on either side of the membrane apart from the 150mm overlap guidelines.
This provides a clean membrane appearance while retaining a practical installation reference.
Novia Black+ Ultra incorporates 150mm overlap guidelines.
These provide a useful visual reference when positioning adjacent sheets of membrane during installation.
Final lap dimensions and sealing requirements should follow the relevant Novia installation guidance.
Novia Black+ Ultra is specifically designed as a low-cost entry-grade option.
It is therefore suitable where the project requires a straightforward dual-approved roof and wall breather membrane without the additional features of higher-specification products.
Higher-specification Novia membranes may be preferable where a project requires characteristics such as:
The membrane should be selected according to the requirements of the complete roof or wall construction.
For projects requiring enhanced reaction-to-fire performance, Novia offers its FR Fire Resistant Breather Membrane.
Novia Black+ Ultra:
Novia FR Breather:
Where enhanced fire performance is required, the appropriate FR membrane should be selected according to the complete construction.
Each roll measures:
1.5m wide x 50m long
Providing:
75m² nominal coverage
Actual usable coverage will be lower after allowing for membrane overlaps, cutting and installation wastage.
