Uses and Benefits of Henry Blue Skin for Builders & Contractors

As a fully adhered, peel-n-stick system designed for use as a self-adhered sheet air, vapor and rain barrier, Henry® Blueskin® VP100 is ideal for much more than just wood frame construction.

In situations where a great deal of post construction movement is anticipated, it works well as a transition sheet with Henry Liquid Membranes to add greater strength. Just a few of its many
benefits include:

Eliminates the need for staples and fasteners that can lead to air and water gaps common with traditional house wraps
Self-seals around nail punctures without the use of caulk or insulation
Reduces air drafts to improve envelope energy efficiency and reduce heating and
cooling costs by as much as several hundred dollars per year
Installs easily with common hand tools
No need for error-prone tape application
Light enough for application by a single person
