Tyvek® Home Wrap®

A non-woven, breathable structure that stands apart from other types of house wraps, Tyvek® HomeWrap® promotes drying in wall systems and helps insulation perform closer to its R-value. The original house wrap, incorporating unique material science that helps keep air and water out, while letting water vapor escape. As a result, it can contribute to improved building durability by helping to protect homes against damaging wind and rain that can penetrate the exterior cladding. Tyvek® HomeWrap® can also reduce home energy bills by controlling air flow and water intrusion, which helps insulation work better, allowing the HVAC system to work more efficiently. It’s a house wrap engineered to keep homes cool in the summer, warm in the winter, and dry all year round.

Tyvek® Tape

Finish the building envelope with a superior seam tape – DuPont™ Tyvek® Tape. It helps to create a continuous building envelope system which keeps water and air out. Benefits can include not only better building durability but improved energy efficiency through reduced air leakage. Tyvek® Tape is strong, easy to use, and highly waterproof. It is constructed of an oriented polypropylene film, coated with a specially formulated permanent acrylic adhesive to create the best adhesion between seam tape and DuPont™ Tyvek® weather barriers. From a single family home to an office tower, air and water infiltration can make insulation significantly less effective, heating and air conditioning more costly. Tyvek® Tape contributes to energy efficiency by helping to seal the building envelope, which controls air flow and water intrusion in the wall assembly.
