Keep Homes and Buildings Under Wraps From Weather Damage

By Evelyn Witterholt. 

PALISADE® Premium Building Wrap helps buildings and homes maintain longevity by keeping water out. 

Home and building owners want nothing more than their property to last as long as possible, and a lot of this comes down to which materials are on the exterior. One of the best ways to ensure a building’s longevity is by keeping moisture out, particularly in more humid areas. Thankfully, PALISADE offers a Premium Building Wrap that protects the exteriors of homes and buildings from weather-related damages while also contributing to a property’s energy efficiency. 

The Premium Building Wrap is made of an entirely synthetic, non-woven polypropylene fabric that is specially designed to resist water from getting into the building. It does not retain any water while still letting the structure breathe. The wrap also resists air infiltration and has balanced water vapor permeance, which allows any water vapor that gets into the wall to easily escape. 

PALISADE’s wrap is great for buildings with up to six stories as wells as residential buildings in need of a new retro-fit. Its material is Class A fire rated and can be installed over multiple materials including: 

• Plywood 
• OSB  
• Gypsum and gypsum composite 
• Rigid foam 

It can also be installed under brick, stone, metal and other composite materials! The wrap is incredibly installer friendly, as it is translucent and is easy to find studs and overlaps. Its fabric effortlessly stretches and forms to buildings and does not flap in the wind. 

For your more cost-conscious customers, the Premium Building Wrap is an excellent choice as it is lightweight, and therefore costs less to ship. With easy installation, it’ll save them on labor costs, and it requires fewer repairs in the future. If they are energy conscious too, they’ll be happy to know that the wrap is 100% recyclable and by reducing air infiltration, it improves their structure’s energy efficiency.
