Engineered for Superior Drainage and Moisture Control
A weather barrier designed with vertical grooves to provide additional drainage for
commercial construction projects in wet locations.
DuPont"' Tyveks CommenciallWap = D provides superior air and moisture control, ivith an emphasis on enhanced
drainage. it combines the unique material science of Tyvek- :weather barriers with a vertically grooved surface to help
channel windblown rain and other bulk water.
Viet Weather Ready
t
Ublizng a specially engineered, "creped-surface t=xture, Tyvec`� Ccmmer0allJ2r' D is designed 0th an enhanced
drainage plane to help meet the challenges of heavy rainfall, windblown water, snow and humidity, and provide
effective drainage. By combining superior air infiltration and cxiltrati-on control, bulk grater holdout, and vapor
permeability, Tyvek9 Commer MMl2p D helps prevent toter intrusion and accumulation in the wall, which can lead
to mold and water damage.
Built-in Strength
turn all Tyveks commercial building wraps, TyvelC•, CcmmeroalArrapl D is strong, cffedng high tear resistance and
wind load resistance. Its made to stand up to the rigor of the elements, as well as the commercial construction site.
And becausa it has nine -month UV resistance, ifs durable enough to withstand changes in the con -'ruction schedule,
as well.
Flexible Efficiency
I
Tyver- CommerdalWrapo D is designed to work with the full line of DuPont" Building Etwe!gpe systems products
across a wide vadetygfcommerc!al building facades. As part of a complete weather barNer_rystem, Tyvek�
Ccmmercial4Yrap� D can also help improve the overall performance of the building. It has been estimated that
bl-txeen 30% and 50% of the energy consumed by commercial buildings is wasted. But an ideal combination of
properties enables Tyveli Ccmmercia!wrapz D to help maintain superior moisture control, which in turn can help
reduce the energy needed for heatirg and coaling the building, crating a more durable, more sustainable structure.
Right for Today, Right for Tomorrow
As part of a complete system of DuPont" Building Envelope "l m products, Tyvek'- Canmerdah Jrapa D is
designed for long-term performance. it's also backed by a 10-year limited warranty from DuPont In addition, the
DUPon TyvalCOSpecialist Nefixork is available to prm4de the latest information on building practices and
specifications with AIA and CES teaming units, as well as Building Science Seminara.
