DuPont Launches New Tyvek® Protec™ Roofing Underlayments

Tyvek Protec 200 - 02
August 2, 2016 at 12:00 p.m.

Offers industry-leading walkability as part of complete building envelope solution

DuPont Protection Solutions today announced the launch of a new line of roofing underlayments, DuPont Tyvek® Protec, part of the Tyvek® family of building envelope products.

Tyvek® Protec is suitable for use by professional roofing and exteriors contractors in new construction or re-roofing projects as a secondary water barrier on steep-sloped roofs (2:12 or higher) under asphalt shingle, tile, metal, cedar or slate. Tyvek® Protec is offered in a variety of product grades: Tyvek® Protec™ 120; Tyvek® Protec 160 and Tyvek® Protec 200; each with increasing quality, durability, strength, warranty protection and UV resistance.

“The walkability of Tyvek® Protec is best-in-class,” said Jim Ash, global roofing market segment leader, DuPont Protection Solutions. “From the grip under foot to the grip to the roof deck, contractors will see, feel, and experience the differences from other roofing underlayments the moment they install the first roll. We are excited and look forward to bringing the same high level of quality, durability, building science, support and service to those that serve the roofing industry as we have been providing to the construction industry for over 35 years.”

With its industry-leading walkability, Tyvek® Protec enables effective installation regardless of weather conditions – dry, wet, hot, cold or dirty. In addition, Tyvek® Protec lays flat and is wrinkle-free, for ease of installation. It is easy to chalk, and is available in the United States and in Canada from local lumber and roofing dealers.
