A rich, complete and didactic catalog
Since the entry into force of the RE2020, constructions in wood and biosourced materials are increasingly favored by builders. Achieving the targeted carbon neutrality by 2050 presupposes in particular a reinforced development of the wood construction model.
However, these constructions must meet strict regulatory requirements and constraints related to airtightness and watertightness.
On the strength of its experience as a partner of industrial players in wood construction and thanks to its new catalogue, Ubbink offers a complete offer to wood professionals or those who are gradually moving towards this construction model. The company accompanies and advises them in their choice of suitable products and in an implementation that complies with the regulations.
Thus, Ubbink offers 30 solutions divided into two distinct categories: watertightness and airtightness.
Each part is then broken down by function (“Protect the structure from capillary rise”, “Protect the wooden structure & the insulation from water vapor and air infiltration”…).
Then, for each of them, the guide presents:
- The product(s) to use
- Their composition and technical characteristics
- A focus on the regulations in force
- An explanation of their implementation
In addition, several selection guides concerning under-roofing screens, rain and vapor barrier membranes enrich the catalog and give professionals the possibility of choosing the product adapted to their needs according to their technical characteristics.
WUFI, a software to validate a constructive solution
Finally, Ubbink also offers its expertise by offering a free study, thanks to the WUFI software which helps to validate a constructive solution. The use of materials with varied characteristics has an impact on the behavior of a construction in the face of humidity. An anticipated apprehension of the phenomena of heat exchange and migration of humidity in the wall makes it possible to construct a building adapted to exterior and interior conditions, whatever the construction method.
The MOB catalog as well as all Ubbink documentation and WUFI software are available via the contact form on the Ubbink website.
