Mortar Net Solutions introduced DriPlane at the World of Concrete tradeshow this past January. DriPlane helps masons and designers build drier, more trouble-free walls by providing continuous drainage and drying behind most types of adhered masonry and rainscreen walls. The standard ¼” thick product is a polypropylene mesh bonded to a moisture- and vapor-permeable fabric. It is attached between the veneer and weather resistant barrier and is also available in ⅜ (10mm) and ¾” thicknesses.
