Asphalt and Polyethylene

Asphalt and polyethylene based barrier wrap protection system (termite tested, laboratory proven, ICC-ES building code compliant and AWPA standardized):

• The surface of the wood is coated with asphalt, and a heavy-duty polyethylene shrink film is factory applied to offer a durable protective outer layer.
• The barrier protection system retains chemical penetration and enhances the service life of wooden posts treated with all types of water-borne wood preservatives.
• Provides a technically viable and building code compliant alternative to chemically-treated lumber in weather-protected applications such as post-frame construction.
• An uplift restraint notch is pre-applied to the posts prior to the application of the barrier system.
• May be used on solid-sawn, nail-lam and glue-laminated posts.
