Vapour permeability

Buildings should be constructed so that they are permeable in order to allow humidity regulation of inside and outside air. PAVATEX wooden fibre panels are ideal for this, since they are high-quality, permeable insulating materials which, thanks to their hygroscopic quality, reduce the risk of damage to the building’s structure and ensure a healthy and pleasant room climate.

Natural, self-regulating moisture balance
The secret of the vapour-permeability of PAVATEX insulation boards lies in the woodfibres themselves. They have an open-pored structure by nature which allows water molecules to pass through.


PAVATEX insulation materials can thus safely evacuate water from the component to the outside. The result is a balanced indoor climate protected from moisture and mould.
