As the building industry has advanced and enclosures have become more efficient and tighter, the ever present problem of moisture continues to plague projects. The infiltration of moisture can lead to structural deterioration, shorten the life of exterior claddings and paints, while also fostering mold and rot which will harm the structure and pose health hazards.
With these conditions, the key becomes the removal of liquid bulk water and water vapor as quickly as possible to avoid damage to structural components and this is where Tamlyn and its multiple options of Water Management Systems excels.
The key to building durable structures is more than just applying building paper or a wrap. It’s about employing tried and proven water management principles to develop a moisture management system that addresses all the mechanisms of moisture movement. It is a guide for architectural design, product selection and construction practice. Preventing moisture damage and call backs is really about implementing a system to effectively control moisture as a liquid and as a vapor.
TamlynWrap® Drainable Wrap is the superior moisture management product from Tamlyn. This innovative product effectively eliminates excess moisture and mitigates the damaging effects of mold and rot. Its unique design removes at least 100 times more bulk water from a wall versus standard housewraps.
This is achieved through the gap created by 1.5 mm spacers bonded to a high performance housewrap. This patented gap design provides a true drainage space between the sheathing and cladding material.
Meets or exceeds the ICC acceptance criteria requirements for water resistive barriers (AC38) and drainage efficiency.
Drainage pattern is omni-directional, so it can be installed in any direction. Non-woven structure is light weight, flexible and easy to integrate with other wall components. The roll size is safer to handle at elevated levels.
Backed by a 15 year product or 25 year product and labor limited warranty. Patented technology.
