Gorilla Wrap® Housewrap

This tough non-perforated, non-woven polymeric material helps keep the weather (rain, wind, moisture) outside, reducing heating and cooling costs. A house wrapped in Formaldehyde-free™ Gorilla Wrap® housewrap minimizes air infiltration to deliver whole house energy efficiency. When used on a properly insulated home where all gaps and voids are filled in wall cavities, Gorilla Wrap housewrap provides the ultimate in thermal performance and moisture management.

Protect your investment with the most durable housewrap product on the market

Gorilla Wrap housewrap has a tear resistance that's nearly four times higher than other housewraps. Combined with the UV inhibitors in its coating and fibers, the barrier stays intact during construction and can withstand the elements before it is covered for up to six months.

Maximum moisture control, reducing the risk of mold and mildew growth in the home

Gorilla Wrap significantly reduces the potential for water penetration into the home. It acts as a superior weather barrier that protects the home's framing from moisture while under construction. However, Gorilla Wrap is breathable so it does not trap moisture inside. It is also made of materials that do not support the growth of mold and mildew, improving the indoor air quality of your home.

Increases installation efficiency

Gorilla Wrap housewrap is made of a translucent material that allows installers to see studs, nails and windows as they install, making it faster and easier than opaque housewrap. Gorilla Wrap's superior ultraviolet inhibitors and tear strength allows at least six months exposure time, easing builder scheduling and concerns.
