Vertically Channeled Rainscreen
Say hello to Slicker® MAX - a vertically channeled rainscreen with a filter fabric, providing enhanced UV and compression resistance. The premium fabric blocks mortar droppings from seeping into the cavity formed by the three-dimensional matrix and adds compression strength. This rainscreen is ideal for providing drainage and ventilation behind fiber cement, stone veneer, and stucco applications. Combine it with FlatWrap HP and HydroFlash to get the most optimal rainscreen system.
