HardieWrap™ weather barrier is an innovative, higher performing weather barrier made by James Hardie, maker of America's #1 brand of siding. HardieWrap weather barrier provides a balance of water resistance and breathability, allowing moisture (water vapor) from inside your building to escape so the area within the wall stays dry.
