Recent testing of DELTA® air- and water-resistive barriers has opened up creative possibilities for architects. Now, more DELTA^®-FASSADE S and DELTA^®-FASSADE SA surfaces can be exposed in open-joint cladding systems, proving them to be more durable than ever.

For architects, more durability gives confidence that projects won’t be compromised during construction while protecting a structure’s exterior aesthetic. It also provides higher performance and reliability for contractors while meeting and exceeding building codes.

Specifically, the DELTA^®-FASSADE S and DELTA^®-FASSADE SA can now cover 50 percent of an open-joint cladding facade, a 25 percent increase from the previous limit of 40 percent. With the increased allowed exposure,
these barriers provide architects with more design flexibility, enhanced product performance, and added reliability.
