PERFORM®
Dimensionally stable and lead-free flashing for modern construction
With increasing demands for environmental responsibility, occupational safety and building performance, the need for lead-free, flexible and dimensionally stable flashing materials is greater than ever. With PERFORM®, you get an innovative and proven solution that combines the advantages of traditional lead with modern material technology.
PERFORM® is a flexible flashing that can be used wherever sealing and protection against the elements is required – whether around chimneys, roof windows, wall junctions or other critical building details. It works on both flat and profiled roof surfaces and easily adapts to complex geometries.
An effective alternative to lead
PERFORM® has the same function and tightness as lead but is developed to meet today’s requirements for lighter, safer and more sustainable solutions. The material is both self-supporting and dimensionally stable, meaning it holds its shape once installed – without the need for additional fastening. This creates a durable and open (breathable) flashing that can withstand weather, wind and temperature fluctuations for many years.
Where lead requires special handling and poses health risks for installers, PERFORM® is a lead-free and environmentally friendly alternative that is safe to use and easier to transport and work with.
Functional properties and advantages
-
Dimensional stability: The material retains its shape after installation – no deformation over time.
-
Flexibility: Easily adapts to both flat and corrugated surfaces.
-
Breathability: The open structure allows moisture to diffuse out, minimising the risk of condensation.
-
Self-supporting construction: Requires no support to maintain its position.
-
Long durability: UV resistant and weatherproof.
-
Lead-free: A safe and healthy alternative to traditional lead flashings.
Installation – quick and secure
PERFORM® is easy to install. Thanks to its easily formable structure, it can be adapted on site without the need for heat or special tools. It can be cut and shaped with standard hand tools and pressed into place – simple and efficient.
The low weight and flexibility save both time and effort on the construction site. And because PERFORM® is self-supporting and retains its shape, the risk of incorrect installation or leaks is minimised.
