DuPont announced the launch of its latest addition to its roofing underlayment product line, the Tyvek Protec PSU peel-and-stick underlayment.
The underlayment’s adhesive layer serves as an additional sealant, offering superior protection at fasteners and nails.
The self-adhered Tyvek Protec PSU product is specifically intended for critical areas of the roof, such as the eaves and valleys, that are more susceptible to water leaks.
The adhesive layer — composed of rubberized asphalt — serves as an additional sealant, offering superior protection at fasteners and nails compared to a mechanically attached sheet.
The product also functions as a shield against water intrusion due to wind-driven rain and ice dams, allowing it to cater to different climates and regions. It’s designed to provide high-performance, high-temperature, and UV resistance along with a slip-resistant walking surface, split liner for easy installation, ICC-ES code report and prestigious FL/Miami-Dade certification.
“Tyvek Protec PSU completes DuPont’s portfolio of roof underlayment products, allowing for a single supplier for both mechanically attached underlayment and PSU,” says Victoria Raineri, residential marketing manager for DuPont. “This ensures brand continuity, making it easier to address codes with products from one cohesive portfolio.”
DuPont’s Tyvek Protec PSU peel-and-stick underlayment offers trusted, high-quality performance that meets or exceeds industry and code requirements. The addition of this new product allows for a single source for all roof underlayment needs which enables a dependable and reliable roofing system.
