Henry® Company’s Blueskin® VP100 Air Barrier Featured on WEtv’s “Designing Spaces”
El Segundo, Calif., (October 29, 2010) - Henry Company’s BlueskinVP™ — the next generation in air barrier technology for today’s “green” homes — is being showcased as part of the “Think Green” series of WEtv’s “Designing Spaces” on October 31 and November 1 and 12 at 9:30 a.m. (ET/PT). Henry Company’s Director of Product Management Marc Tropper will demonstrate why architects, contractors and property owners alike should seriously consider the benefits of using a high performance air and water barrier as opposed to a conventional house wrap.
“Blueskin® VP100 picks up where other staple-applied, house wraps leave off,” explains Tropper. “This peel-and-stick system with patented vapor permeable adhesive provides a continuous plane of air tightness that prevents air and bulk water from moving through exterior walls in either direction, while still allowing the structure to breathe.”
BlueskinVP air and water resistive barrier boosts the performance of the overall Building Envelope System®, resulting in numerous benefits, including:
- Lower energy costs
- Protection against rain penetration
- Improved insulation performance
- Enhanced occupant comfort
- Improved air quality and mold resistance
- Healthier building environment
Henry Company supports the use of green building practices and energy efficient construction design. Henry manufactures a broad range of Building Envelope Systems that support this effort and contribute toward achieving Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) points, including air and vapor barriers, cool roof reflective coatings, Vegetative Roof Assembly™, spray foam insulation and waterproofing, to name a few.
