Balancing water holdout with breathability is no easy trick. TYPAR BuildingWrap is intelligently engineered to block moisture from the outside, but allows it to escape safely from the inside.
TYPAR BuildingWrap is ready to go to work right alongside our full lineup of high-performance flashings, tapes, and accessories. Put it all up together to shut down all points of unwanted intrusion.
Not just any old wrap will do. Not if you truly care about your projects—and your good name. On single-family homes and structures up to three stories, TYPAR BuildingWrap delivers unbeatable toughness, intelligence, and warranty backing. Wrapping it right, then, begins with TYPAR. Not to mention being armed with a handful of best practices.
