In 2012 GuttaFilta Pty Ltd was formed to develop and roll out specialty products in a different field. Dyman Foams manufacture the product for GuttaFilta. GuttaFilta is an easily installed DIY style product. If needed, though, we can arrange professional installation. GuttaFilta will not damage your roof or gutters. In fact it helps to keep your gutters dry and clean. GuttaFilta is UV stable, is fire retardant (self extinguishing rating 10 - refer disclaimer), is environmentally friendly and comes with a 7 year warranty. GuttaFilta is easy to handle and won't dent or crack. -
GuttaFilta and GuttaFilta Valley is made from a open cell (reticulated) polyether polyurethane foam. All GuttaFilta products can be cut to any size to fit any application. Whilst very porous and pliable, it is also highly resistant to physical stress and UV deterioration. It is formulated to perform in sub-zero or high temperatures making it suitable for all Australian conditions. GuttaFilta also has an anti microbial additive which prevents algae and mould developing and GuttaFilta, by way it is formed and fits into the gutter, also assists with mosquito control. GuttaFilta inhibits the development of larvae by keeping the mosquitoes away from any water build up.
