DuPont™ Tyvek® Weatherization Systems are an integrated family of products engineered to provide air and moisture management in virtually all wall assemblies by offering the best balance of properties:

•    High air infiltration resistance to stop unwanted airflow into the building envelope (e.g. wind)
•    Excellent water resistance to prevent bulk-water penetration (e.g. rain)
•    Optimum water vapor permeability for drying (by water vapor diffusion) to help prevent the growth of mold and mildew and costly moisture-related damage.

The result is comfortable, healthier, more energy efficient buildings. The DuPont™ Tyvek® Weatherization Systems portfolio of products includes Tyvek® HomeWrap®, Tyvek® CommercialWrap®, Tyvek® StuccoWrap®, Tyvek® DrainWrap™, Tyvek® AtticWrap™ and Tyvek® ThermaWrap™ weather-resistive barriers, as well as DuPont™ FlexWrap™, DuPont™ StraightFlash™ and DuPont™ StraightFlash™ VF flashing tapes.  DuPont™ Tyvek® Wrap Cap Fasteners secure the wrap to vertical surfaces and DuPont™ Tyvek® Tape is the final step in creating a protective weather envelope. 

All components are backed by the DuPont™ Tyvek® Build It Right™ Warranty in addition to installation support through the 160-person DuPont™ Tyvek® Specialist Network of field professionals educated in construction and building science.		 spacer
