Reinforced Vapour Permeable Underlay for Pitched Roofs (Type LR), Class W1

DuPont™ Tyvek® Supro is designed for supported or unsupported installation in pitched roof constructions, providing reliable secondary weather protection for non‑ventilated roofs.

 

Tyvek® Supro Plus includes integral adhesive lap tape to support sealed laps and improved wind resistance.

 

Key benefits for specification:

  • Features a functional layer 6 to 8 times thicker than standard multilayer roof underlays
  • Maintains performance under heat, UV exposure and mechanical stress
  • Proven to outlast many multilayer membranes commonly used in pitched roofs
  • Reduces long‑term risk of membrane degradation, failure and costly remediation
     

Specification support: our technical experts provide free, project‑specific support and will respond within 48 hours.

Features & benefits

Feature Benefit
Exceptionally thick functional layer
  • Tyvek® Supro functional layer is 6 to 8 times thicker than that of typical multilayer products, offering enhanced resistance to wear, punctures, and environmental factors
  • This thickness, rather than weight, ensure long-term performance and structural integrity for buildings
  • Windtight
  • With impressive airtightness, Tyvek® Supro reduces insulation wind washing effects by up to 80% compared to air-open membranes, lowering heating costs
  • Its unique composition also provides robust protection against wind uplift and dislodged tiles/slates, making it suitable for all 5 UK wind zones
  • Extremely water-resistant W1 level
  • Proven track record (confirmed by external testing) of lasting over 20 years, Tyvek® Supro prevents water ingress during and after construction.
  • No water ingress, roofs last longer with Tyvek®
  • Durable resistance to damage from UV and heat
  • Tyvek® Supro can be safely exposed to direct sunlight for up to 4 months without compromising performance, you can rely on it while you handle delays when finishing the roof.
  • 15-year Warranty
  • Breathable, tested and certified
  • Cold Roofs: it can be used with AirGuard® at the ceiling level to create a non-ventilated system, which helps reduce heating and cooling costs
  • Warm Roofs: the insulation remains dry, ensuring optimal performance and leading to lower heating and cooling expenses
