Welcome
VaproShield delivers high performance building envelope solutions and clear concise information on issues that plague building designers.

The home being built for the Smart Home: Green + Wired exhibit for the Museum of Science and Technology in Chicago, IL, is a new MKD design called mkSolaireā„¢, a three-story, loft-style home, suitable for an urban environment.

We have designed products that support the industry and use a systems approach for rain screen design in order to address three key industry needs:

  • Healthy building solutions: Buildings must breathe to allow trapped moisture to escape in order to prevent mold, mildew and rot.
  • Materials construction: Envelope membranes breathe, withstand extreme weather conditions and resist tears and UV damage.
  • Installation ease and costs: Products are easy to install with open joint rain screen design components and 3D window flashing elements that require less installation time and increase the performance of the building envelope.
