Sahara Excel
Sahara Excel is a premium breathable weather-resistive barrier for residential and commercial walls. Its DRYZA Smart Nano Technology lets moisture inside the wall escape while blocking wind-driven rain and water from outside, which helps guard against mold, mildew and rot. It is built for rough job sites, handles up to nine months of UV exposure and tolerates incidental contact with oils and cleaners. It goes behind fibre cement, vinyl, wood and metal cladding, is rated at 40 perms, carries ICC-ESR 5152 and CCMC 14524-R and 14510-R evaluations, and is backed by a lifetime limited warranty.
Made by Sentry
