Pro Clima Fronta WA
Vapour permeable monolithic black breather membrane for timber frame construction and suspended timber floors
Pro Clima Solitex Fronta WA is used to weatherproof external timber frame walls. Its 3-month UV exposure resistance protects the timber frame building from the weather during the construction phase (before external protective cladding is added) as well as long term once the external closed timber cladding is completed.

Pro Clima Solitex Fronta WA is used to weatherproof external timber frame walls. Its 3-month UV exposure resistance protects the timber frame building from the weather during the construction phase (before external protective cladding is added) as well as long term once the external closed timber cladding is completed. It is fully windtight and its high vapour diffusion openness (breathability) gives Fronta WA a very low resistance to moisture that greatly helps in the drying of the wall and releases any moisture in the timber or insulation that needs to escape.
How to install
Roll out the membrane horizontally and fix to the structure with at least 10mm wide and 8mm long galvanised staples. Overlap each length of membrane so any water run-off cannot get behind the membrane. Line up the edges of overlapping membrane with the dotted line to obtain the correct amount of overlap.
Hints & Tips
To seal the overlap use Tescon Invis airtight tape, for a matching black finish, or Tescon Vana if you prefer. Be careful to avoid any wrinkles. For sealing onto rough surfaces or concrete use Orcon F Airtight Adhesive. To seal to a window or door frame use Tescon Profil Airtight Window Tape.
Suitable For
- External walls of timber frame buildings behind timber cladding that has no gaps (closed screen cladding)
Coverage Rate
- 75m² per roll
- Black membrane
- Fully breathable yet wind & watertight
- Easy to install
- UV resistant for 3 months
- Black membrane ideal for use behind vented timber cladding with no gaps (closed screen cladding).
- Moisture will actively diffuse through but wind & rain won’t – protecting the insulation & ensuring performance.
- Lightweight yet highly tear resistant, a robust solution against on-site wear and tear.
- Can be exposed to weather and sunlight before external protective cladding is installed for easier on-site scheduling of works.
