Crafted from 100% high-density polyethylene, Hypak™ is a high-performance breathable building wrap that serves as an exceptional breathable house wrap and Weather & Air Barrier System within the building envelope. It functions as a reliable house wrap breathable membrane, helping maintain long-term structural protection in modern building systems. It facilitates water vapor diffusion while maintaining the dryness of thermal insulation, significantly reducing thermal bridge formation, enhancing insulation efficiency, and lowering energy consumption.
Mechanism of Action
Water vapor naturally migrates from areas of higher temperature to lower temperature. Hypak™ employs a specialized air barrier membrane on the warmer side of the thermal insulation and a waterproof, breathable vapour barrier layer on the colder side. This design integrates the function of a vapour barrier and breather membrane, ensuring balanced moisture management inside the building envelope. This configuration prevents water vapor from penetrating the insulation and allows any infiltrated moisture to disperse. By simultaneously dispersing and blocking water vapor, Hypak™, as a high-performance breathable membrane house wrap, prevents accumulation within the envelope, keeps insulation dry reduces cold bridge formation, minimizes freezing and expansion damage, enhances heat retention, and reduces energy consumption.
