Product Details

Featuring a lightweight 4’ x 8’ integrated panel that combines Henry’s Blueskin VP100 self-sealing and drainable weather-resistive barrier, Type II graphite polystyrene (GPS) continuous insulation, and patent-pending vertical and horizontal seam-sealing overlays, each Blueskin VPTech panel fully seals against adjacent panels creating a uniform, continuous air barrier.

Blueskin VPTech can help lower a home’s HERS (Home Energy Rating System) Score and contribute to ENERGY STAR and Zero Energy Ready Home (ZERH) program requirements. Independent blower door testing confirms a 74% reduction in air changes per hour, down to 1.5 ACH50, when installed in conjunction with an unvented attic with open cell spray foam. 

Blueskin VPTech is covered by the Henry Standard Product Warranty against any material defects. It is also eligible for the Henry 30-Year Residential Building Envelope System Warranty when installed with approved Henry Flashing and Sealant products.

*Based on time savings from installing sheathing, continuous insulation, and water resistive barrier as separate components. Installation time trials conducted by Henry with independent installers, August 2023.
