ZIP System® Family of Products
Breakthrough innovation that has transformed the future of building enclosures.
What Is ZIP System
A revolutionary structural roof and wall system that streamlines weatherization with an integrated air and water-resistive barrier.
Speed & Ease of Installation
ZIP System creates a quick and simple two-step installation that eliminates the need for house wrap and felt.
Continuous Air Barrier
Taped seams form a tight barrier against air leakage for a more energy-efficient building envelope.
Integrated Water-Resistive Barrier
Helps protect against water intrusion while still allowing the panels to properly dry.
Structural Durability
ZIP System panels are available with a Structural 1 rating [1], so you can get shear strength to meet seismic and high-wind-zone requirements.
ZIP System® Roof Sheathing
A strong, resilient roof is a home’s first line of defense when the roof deck is exposed to weather. ZIP System roof assembly combines our revolutionary integrated sheathing and flashing tape or liquid flashing to provide a sealed roof for protection against moisture intrusion during construction or if high winds strip the roof covering away. Trust ZIP System roof assembly to help fortify your home against the storm.
ZIP System® Wall Sheathing
A revolutionary new approach to building enclosures, ZIP System® sheathing and tape streamlines the weatherization process with an integrated air and water-resistive barrier that delivers moisture and air protection in one easy-to-install system.
ZIP System® Insulated R‑Sheathing
ZIP System R-sheathing is the simple all-in-one structural panel with built-in exterior insulation. Featuring integrated moisture, air and thermal protection, ZIP System R-sheathing completely reimagines traditional wall assemblies by streamlining exterior water, air and thermal management.
ZIP System™ Rainscreen
ZIP System rainscreen is the latest ZIP System solution to help builders achieve a high-performance wall assembly. It streamlines drainage and ventilation between sheathing and reservoir cladding systems. With easy installation, it provides an air gap and drainage plane to promote drying behind cladding systems. Now, teams can meet the new code-required 3/16″ air gap and secondary water-resistive layer for stucco and adhered stone assemblies with a single rainscreen product.
ZIP System™ Flashing Tape
ZIP System flashing tapes are not your average industrial tapes. Made with advanced acrylic adhesion specially formulated for application over a wide temperature range, ZIP System tapes are pressure-activated to create a powerful bond that gets stronger over time. When used as part of a ZIP System building enclosures system, they are covered under a 180-day Exposure Guarantee and 30-year limited warranty.
ZIP System™ Stretch Tape
Quickly flash tricky areas without piecing tape segments together. ZIP System stretch tape uniquely stretches in all directions to easily fit sills, curves and corners with a single piece. Made of a high-performance composite acrylic, ZIP System stretch tape conforms to challenging applications and locks out moisture even over mismatched surfaces.
ZIP System™ Liquid Flash
For the ultimate versatility for sealing every rough opening, ZIP System liquid flash is a fluid-applied flashing membrane made of STPE (silyl-terminated-polyether) technology. This high-performance formulation combines the durability of silicones with the toughness of urethanes.
ZIP System™ Peel and Stick Underlayment
Don’t let the threat of leaks keep you up at night. Stick it to the rain with our new ZIP System™ waterproofing peel and stick roofing underlayment. Add it to ZIP System® sheathing and tape and register your eligible product for protection so strong, we’ll back it with a Leak-Free Guarantee.
