Key Features and Benefits​
 

  • Euroclass A2 (s1, d0) Standards: Enhances fire safety and supports fire risk-averse designs throughout the building's lifespan.​

  • W1 Class Water-Holdout: Ensures weatherproofing performance against water, wind, rain, and dust.​

  • U-value Preservation: Optimizes thermal efficiency when installed in the building envelope​

  • Superior Breathability (0.416 MNsg / SD 0.08m): Provides excellent water vapor permeability for better indoor air quality​

  • All-in-One Weatherproofing Solution: Exceeds rigorous fire risk and weatherproofing requirements, offering reliable protection​

  • Lightweight Product: Reduces logistical complexity, saving costs and lowering carbon footprint during transportation​

  • Wider Roll Dimension (1500 mm): Increases productivity by covering more area quickly, reducing labor time and ancillary use​

  • 6 Months Free Exposure & UV Resistance: Offers flexibility in project scheduling, minimizing UV exposure risks​

  • 25-Year Warranty: Provides long-term assurance on performance properties, ensuring durability and peace of mind for users​

 
 
 

DuPont™ Tyvek® Trifecta™
 

Tyvek® Trifecta™ doesn’t produce droplets or emit smoke when subjected to flame, making it a great choice for fire risk averse build-up designs of external walls cladding. It is engineered for fast and easy installation with non-combustible A2 tape.​


Airtight and watertight yet vapour-open, the Tyvek® Trifecta™ non-combustible breather membrane also contributes to energy conservation and climate control, improving the comfort of occupants and contributing to higher internal air quality.​

 
 
 

A Comprehensive A2-s1,d0 Fire Performance System​​

DuPont offers a complete A2 fire performance system, for non-combustible weatherproofing and condensation risk management, for all building types. Backed by 25-year DuPont Warranty: improved fire safety throughout the building’s lifespan.​

Tyvek® Trifecta™ A2 Fire-Rated Breather Membrane for external walls cladding​
Robust, non-combustible breather membrane suited for high-rise and higher-risk commercial and residential buildings with 3-in-1 underlaying properties of A2 (s1,d0), W1 and 0.416 MNsg / SD 0.08m​

AirGuard® A2 FR Airtight Vapour Control Layer for interior walls cladding
Non-combustible membrane for use within internal lining of roof, ceiling and wall systems. It improves airtightness, energy efficiency, and moisture management​, enhancing indoor air quality and providing fire safety to the building and occupants​​

AirGuard® FR System Tape for sealing all laps and around penetrations ​
Fire retardant, single-sided tape A2 Fire Class to EN 13501-1. Specially formulated for use with DuPont™ AirGuard® A2 FR AVCL and DuPont™ Tyvek® Trifecta™
