Area of application

The va­pour re­tard­ing and air­tight­ness mem­branes IN­TELLO and IN­TELLO PLUS can be used as an in­ner bound­ary for thermal in­su­la­tion:

  • in roofs, walls, ceil­ings, and floors
  • in res­id­en­tial and com­mer­cial build­ings with tem­por­ary in­creased levels of hu­mid­ity
  • in res­id­en­tial build­ings or build­ings with res­id­en­tial-like use in all rooms such as liv­ing rooms and bed­rooms, kit­chens and bath­rooms
  • in ex­tern­al per­meable and ex­tern­al im­per­meable struc­tures.
  • in the event of high in­door air qual­ity re­quire­ments

Application in complex or demanding structures

By global standards, the INTELLO PLUS system also offers a particularly high level of potential freedom from structural damage for critical structures that are externally impermeable such as pitched roofs having a metal covering and sub-roofs made from bitumen roof sheeting, for flat roofs, green roofs etc. – even in locations with an extremely cold climate.
Detailed information on the physics of thermal insulation is given in the study “Calculating potential freedom from structural damage of thermal insulation structure in timber-built systems”.
