Air and Vapor Barriers
Henry/Bakor has the airtight solution!
The most persuasive benefit of a Henry/Bakor air barrier system is the impact on the bottom line. For an initial one-time investment of less than 1-2% of the cost of the building, a Henry/Bakor air barrier system can enhance energy efficiency, help achieve LEED standards, improve air quality and protect against moisture accumulation that leads to mold, corrosion and decay.

Brochure
Henry/Bakor offers two types of air barriers:
Non-Permeable Air Barriers
Henry/Bakor non-permeable air barriers act as air, vapor and rain barriers in one membrane. Typically positioned within the wall cavity, they resist air leakage, offer very low vapor permeance and are watertight.
Vapor-Permeable Air Barriers
Henry/Bakor vapor-permeable air barriers keep air and water out, but feature a high vapor permeance that allows water vapor to escape. They offer watertight protection against air leakage and can be positioned anywhere within the wall assembly.
Henry/Bakor offers a complete line of air barrier accessories:
Air Barrier Accessories
These accessories complement Henry/Bakor non-permeable and Henry/Bakor vapor-permeable air barriers.
