Leadax Lead Replacement Flashing
Leadax is the first lead substitute in the world that looks like lead, dresses like lead & is as malleable & pliable as lead. Leadax has the same unique properties as Lead & Zinc, without having to compromise on quality, flexibility or price. Leadax is applied in exactly the same way as Lead & is equivalent to code 5.
Leadax can be used in all areas where lead would typically be used, such as cavity walls, chimney base, chimney flashings, dormers, valleys and gutters. It also has the added benefit of being non-toxic so removes the health risk to workers.
Leadax is made from recycled polyvinyl butyral (PVB), the foil used in laminated glass (e.g. car windows or safety glass). It is designed in such a way that at the end of its lifecycle (20 year life expectancy), it can be easily dismantled, recycled and used again as a raw material. This makes it a circular and sustainable product, a huge benefit to the environment.
Metal theft is one of the fastest growing crimes globally causing increased insurance premiums as well as huge costs for remedial work. Using Leadax offers a cost effective alternative that reduces the risk of theft due to no scrap value.
