James Hardie's mission is to innovate A Better Way to Build™. We pioneered a superior siding — the first layer of defense against the weather elements. Now, HardieWrap® weather barrier gives you a second layer of defense. Together, the siding and HardieWrap weather barrier work to form a major part of your building's weather protection envelope.
HardieWrap weather barrier is a higher performance, water-resistive barrier designed to provide better protection for your building. When properly installed under James Hardie® fiber-cement siding, it gives your home an unmatched double line of defense against water damage, mildew and energy loss.
HardieWrap weather barrier offers you more — and it's backed by James Hardie, a name you can trust.
