Features and Benefits

  • Prime Wrap™ is the highest quality weather resistant barrier on the market, with the most competitive price
  • Because this is a woven polyethylene product, engineered with micro-perforations, water vapor is allowed to escape from the substructure--when properly installed this can eliminate the mold and mildew that normally occurs in framing components and absorbent sheathing materials
  • Prime Wrap is very translucent so both the housewrap installers and exterior siding installers can see the nailing surface
  • A high UV rating allows Prime Wrap to be exposed for up to 12 months--this results in greater flexibility in scheduling window and exterior siding installation
  • The reduced air infiltration resulting from the use of Prime Wrap results in lower energy costs, while the micro-perforations still allow water vapor to escape
  • The water resistant properties of Prime Wrap housewrap also make it an ideal drainage plane behind exterior siding products
  • Your custom logo can be imprinted with no plate charges, or roll upcharges
  • Available at an affordable price!
