This is our traditional reinforced kraft paper bitumen-bonded building paper laminate used within the construction industry, which meets the requirements of the highest grade of BS 1521 materials.

Novia Polybit is a clear polythene coated version of our A1F Standard Building Paper, typically used where conditions require additional strength and durability.

Unlike many other recent developments in building membranes (eg breathable roof underlays), BS 1521 does not give guidance on suitable use, and as such this product is a generic material, serving a wide range of end-user defined applications.

However, typical usage for Polybit has naturally evolved over time including for example, vapour checks, underlay on uninsulated cladding, flat lead-sheet underlay, timber floor DPM and heavy-duty temporary protection.
