The “D” is for drainage that defies the challenges of heavy rain and wind. Made with a “creped” surface texture, DuPont™ Tyvek® CommercialWrap® D provides an enhanced drainage plane along with high tear resistance for commercial building facades.
Tyvek® CommercialWrap® D
An air and water barrier built for high performance in windy, wet locations, DuPont™ Tyvek® CommercialWrap® D provides superior long-term air and moisture control, with an emphasis on enhanced drainage. It combines the unique material science of DuPont™ Tyvek® brand weather barriers with a vertically grooved surface to help channel windblown rain and other bulk water. DuPont™ Tyvek® CommercialWrap® D is one of the easiest ways to make a significant difference in energy efficiency and overall building performance. Plus, with its proven high tear resistance and wind load resistance and up to 270 days of UV resistance, it gives you more worry-free exposed time on large commercial construction projects.
