Drying Capacity

• High permeability and exceptional water holdout capacity prevents liquid water intrusion. Moisture vapor is allowed to escape ensuring good indoor air quality, reducing incidence of mold, mildew, wood rot, lumber distortion and metal corrosion.

Construction & Installation

• High permeability rating (59 perms) allows wet sheathings to dry quickly, allowing installation during inclement weather.
• Textured surface helps reduce slip risks.
• Lightweight, wide 59" (1.5 meters) rolls install quickly and easily.

Durability & Cost Effectiveness

• High tear, rip and puncture resistance during and after construction reducing repairs and labor costs.
• Sustains 4 months of UV and climate exposure.
• Installs easily and quickly, mechanically attaching directly to plywood, OSB and other substrates decreasing installation time.

Environmental Sustainability

• Contributes to LEED points in Indoor Environmental Quality and Energy & Atmosphere.
• Is 100% recyclable.

Compatibility

• Compatible with metal roofing, copper, zinc, clay tile, slate, wood shakes and shingle roofs.
• The solution for commercial, institutional and multi-family residential construction.
