Tyvek StructureGuard – The Latest in Vapour-open Breather Membrane Technology

The high-quality membrane assures first-class air and moisture management, making it the ideal choice for modern-day architects.

DuPont™ Tyvek^® StructureGuard^® is the high-quality membrane assuring first-class air and moisture management. The unique material science 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^® StructureGuard® 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.

An air and water barrier made to stand up to the rigors of commercial job sites, with high tear-strength, durability, and up to four months of UV resistance.

This is a new product from Tyvek. It is very similar to Tyvek Housewrap but offers more strength and protection in the period between covering the building and applying cladding. It is therefore aimed at larger buildings that take longer to cover or may get damaged by other work on site but can be used for small projects too..... Especially if buying like this..... By the metre.

DuPont Tyvek StructureGuard is a wall cladding membrane and the professional choice for exceptional protection, improved durability and energy efficiency especially in commercial buildings.
