A system, and methods, for preventing fluid infiltration. The fluid infiltration preventing system comprises a horizontal insert foam blocker and a vertical foam blocker. The fluid infiltration preventing system is configured to prevent penetration or infiltration of fluids, such as water, and preferably wind driven water, into an interior region.

A method for the production of a sealing tape roll of flexible, compressible foam with at least one barrier layer extending in the radial direction, which is arranged axially between two layers of foam. The method includes providing a foam web of a flexible foam; applying a first barrier layer to a first surface of the foam web; and introducing at least one first cut into the first surface of the foam web and introducing at least one second cut into a second surface of the foam web opposite the first surface to form parallel sealing tape strips. A connecting section remains between two adjacent sealing tape strips. The sealing tape strips are then folded over in the area of the connecting sections to produce a foam-barrier layer web, and the foam-barrier layer web is wound up into a sealing tape roll.

A sealing tape roll includes a sealing tape wound up into the sealing tape roll. The sealing tape has at least one first barrier layer, which extends in a longitudinal direction of the sealing tape parallel to side surfaces of the sealing tape. The sealing tape also includes a plurality of second barrier layers, which extend over at least 50% of a width of the sealing tape roll between opposite end surfaces of the sealing tape roll. In addition, the sealing tape has a plurality of sealing tape sections, which, in an unwound state of the sealing tape, are arranged behind each other in a row in the longitudinal direction, and a second barrier layer is arranged between each pair of adjacent sealing tape sections.

A sealing tape roll comprises a sealing tape of flexible, compressible foam with a plurality of interior barrier layers, wherein the sealing tape is wound up into the sealing tape roll around an axis extending transversely to a longitudinal direction of the sealing tape in such a way that side surfaces of the sealing tape form end surfaces of the sealing tape roll. The sealing tape comprises a plurality of sealing tape sections, which, in an unwound state of the sealing tape, are arranged in a row in the longitudinal direction, wherein a barrier layer of the plurality of barrier layers is arranged between each pair of adjacent sealing tape sections of the plurality of sealing tape sections. The plurality of barrier layers extend over at least 50% of a width of the sealing tape roll between the opposite end surfaces of the sealing tape roll.

A method for producing a sealing tape with interior barrier layers, each of which extends between opposite end surfaces of the sealing tape, the method includes the steps of providing a first foam web; applying a first barrier layer to a first surface of the first foam web to form a laminated foam web; introducing a plurality of first cuts into the top surface and a plurality of second cuts into a bottom surface of the laminated foam web in the transverse direction, the cuts being offset from each other in the longitudinal direction, to form strips arranged behind each other in a row; folding over the strips to produce a foam-barrier layer web, such that subsections of the top surface lie opposite each other and subsections of the bottom surface lie opposite each other; and forming a sealing tape roll from the foam-barrier layer web.

A method for producing sealing tape rolls of flexible, compressible foam having at least one external, radially oriented barrier layer comprises the steps of providing a foam web of flexible foam; forming a foam-barrier layer web by application of a barrier layer to a top surface and/or a bottom surface of the foam web; producing a plurality of sealing tape strips by introducing at least one continuous cut into the foam-barrier layer web in a longitudinal direction of the foam-barrier layer web and perpendicularly to the at least one barrier layer; and winding up each sealing tape strip of the plurality of sealing tape strips into a roll in such a way that the at least one barrier layer extends in the radial direction and is arranged on at least one of the two axial end surfaces of the roll.

A sealing member for use between a flashing member and a roofing material is made of a compressible material and with slits and/or weakening sections extending into the sealing member from the exterior surface towards the interior surface, each slit and/or weakening section extending from one side surface to the other side surface. In one embodiment the slits and/or weakening sections extend in parallel planes, each plane being substantially parallel to the height direction and extending at an angle of 15-75 degrees to the length direction of the sealing member, preferably an angle of 45 degrees. In use the sealing member is arranged on a flashing member and a roofing material is arranged to rest on the sealing member and compress one or more sections of the sealing member. If the sealing member includes weakening sections, at least one of these is at least partially broken when the sealing member is compressed.

A fire-stopping material for use in sandwich panels is provided, wherein the fire-stopping material comprises a resilient, porous material at least partially impregnated with an intumescent agent. A panel for an internal wall and an internal wall are also provided, comprising the fire-stopping material disposed between two substantially parallel boards, such as plaster boards. A method of providing a service penetration through an internal wall is also provided.

Fireproofing device (1), in particular a fireproofing strip (1), with an elongate support (2), which is produced from a foam material, a non-woven fabric and/or a fibrous body and is provided with an impregnating agent. According to the invention this impregnating agent contains as components at least one liquid medium and a binder for binding solid components of the impregnating agent to the foam material and expandable graphite.

A sealing tape roll which comprises barrier layers extending in the radial direction that are arranged axially between layers of foam and consist of a sealing element wound up into the sealing tape roll. The sealing element includes at least three sealing tape sections which are arranged next to each other in a functional direction of the sealing element. First and second barrier layer sections are each arranged between two adjacent sealing tape sections and parallel to the side surfaces of the sealing element. The first and second barrier layer sections each comprise two legs connected to each other. The legs of the first barrier layer section are connected to each other in an area of the bottom surface of the sealing element and the legs of the second barrier layer section are connected to each other in an area of the top surface of the sealing element.
