Blok-Flash

Blok-Flash delivers the surest, most cost effective control of moisture and mold growth in exterior single-wythe CMU wall systems. It provides 10 times greater bond at the exterior bed joint than a membrane through-wall system, with no water penetration, no by pass, and rapid expulsion of moisture.
