Proctor Air ® Membrane

Proctor Air ® is a high-performance, vapour-permeable membrane designed to balance weathertightness, airtightness and breathability. It helps manage moisture risk by allowing water vapour to escape while resisting wind-driven rain — supporting insulation performance and long-term durability.

Best for: pitched roofs beneath slates/tiles, timber-frame walls behind cladding, and refurbishment projects where controlled moisture movement matters.

Trade-friendly: order membrane, tapes and accessories together for consistent detailing — or call us with your build-up and we’ll help you specify.

The Uses of Proctor Air ®

Proctor Air ® is used to improve performance of the building envelope by controlling air leakage and helping moisture escape safely.

1) Pitched roof underlay (slate & tile)

  • Secondary weather defence under slates and tiles.
  • Helps reduce condensation risk when detailed correctly (laps, penetrations, eaves/ridge).

2) Wall membranes behind cladding

  • Timber-frame and SFS walls behind ventilated cladding systems.
  • Supports insulation performance by keeping wind out and allowing vapour out.

3) Refurbishment & heritage work

  • Useful where breathability matters and trapped moisture can damage traditional fabric.

4) Airtightness detailing

  • Works best as a system with compatible tapes and sealants to control leaks at junctions and penetrations.

Complete the roof build-up: add battens, roofing nails, and roof slates.

Proctor Air ® Membrane – FAQs 🧰

These FAQs help you choose the right Proctor Air ® membrane and detail it properly for reliable airtightness and moisture control.

Proctor Air ® is used in roofs and walls as part of the building envelope to manage wind, rain and moisture vapour. It helps protect insulation and improves energy performance when installed and taped correctly.

Yes. It’s commonly used beneath roof slates and tiles as a secondary layer of defence against wind-driven rain, while still allowing controlled vapour escape.

Yes—airtightness depends on the full system: tapes for laps and penetrations, primers on dusty substrates, and sealing details at eaves, ridges, valleys and abutments. Browse roofing supplies for accessories.

An air barrier limits air movement; a VCL limits vapour diffusion. Some build-ups need both. Follow the design/spec and product guidance for correct positioning in the assembly.

Commercial intent: if you’re ordering for a job, add membrane + fixings together so everything arrives in one drop.

Yes—UK-wide delivery is available. If you need multiple rolls, trade quantities or a consistent spec across sites, contact us for volume pricing and lead times.
