Overview:
Choosing DuPont™ Weatherization Systems is one of the easiest things you can do to improve your buildings energy-efficiency and overall performance. By controlling airflow, holding out bulk water, and allowing interior moisture vapor to escape, DuPont™ Weatherization Systems help reduce the energy needed to heat and cool buildings. DuPont™ Weatherization Systems may also contribute toward U.S. Green Building Council LEED® points in Energy & Atmosphere, Materials & Resources and Indoor Environmental Quality. And, all products meet your specification needs for a weather barrier assembly according to CSI MasterFormat section 07-25-00.

How DuPont™ Tyvek® works
DuPont™ Tyvek® is a tough, spunbonded high-density polyethylene (HDPE) membrane with microscopic pores that resist bulk water and air penetration while allowing moisture vapor to pass through. Its unique design delivers the best balance of properties to manage air and moisture movement through the building envelope.
