PITTWRAP® HS Jacketing

Description

PITTWRAP® HS Jacketing is a heat-sealable, multi-layer laminate designed for protecting FOAMGLAS® insulation in underground and harsh, below-grade environments. The jacketing is composed of a tough polymer-coated layer with a heat-sealable overlap that creates a continuous, reliable barrier against moisture ingress and soil contaminants.
