MTI Rainscreen Drainage Plane Products

Drainage planes provide effective moisture management critical to the health and longevity of every building project. The air space located directly behind the exterior veneer contains the rainscreen drainage system. In this exterior building envelope, a weather-resistive barrier reduces outside forces that draw the moisture into the wall assembly. When moisture does penetrate the exterior veneer, it is able to drain through the envelope via the space created by the drainage plane. Water exits through weeps placed at the lowest possible point on the wall.

In addition to removing damaging moisture, a drainage plane should promote drying of the air in the building envelope by allowing it to move throughout the cavity. With our patented True Channel Technology, MTI's products offer superior drainage capabilities.

Masonry Technology, Inc. has been the industry leader for over twenty years in the design and manufacture of rainscreen drainage plane (drainage mat), weep and accessory products for the exterior building envelope. MTI offers a full line of rainscreen drainage products specifically designed for use behind all types of exterior veneers. The vertical, compartmentalized channels (our patented True Channel Technology) of our products promote rapid drainage and pressure equalization within the wall cavity. Perforations in the material allow cross-ventilation for better drying. Our accessories finish the job with perfection; MTI's L&R Weep Screed is the only metal termination on the market today that is specifically designed to accommodate a rainscreen drainage material and weep. MTI offers complete systems designed for your project. We will work with you to design a system that meets your needs. Call us at 1-800-879-3348 to get started!
