02 Why does it work?
Protect your home's first line of defence.
Fast, easy installation
The quick, simple two-step installation eliminates the need for felt, so interior crews can get started sooner.
Protection against water intrusion
The combination of an integrated water-resistive barrier and sealed panel seams protects against water intrusion and eliminates the need for traditional felt throughout your project.
Avoid underlayment repairs
With ZIP System sheathing panels, the underlayment is built into the engineered wood panel, eliminating the risk of the weather barrier tearing off, so you can say goodbye to felt repairs.
Faster rough dry-in
Simply install the panels and tape the seams for a faster rough dry-in, so mechanical contractors and other trades can start sooner.
30-year limited warranty
The ZIP System is backed by a 30-year limited warranty and a 180-day exposure guarantee[1].
Durability for high-wind zones
High-strength engineered wood panels with a Structural 1 rating deliver the strength and stiffness needed to meet high-wind zone requirements.
ASPHALT SHINGLES
METAL SHINGLES AND PANELS
Compatible with all roof coverings and underlayments.
CLAY AND CONCRETE TILE
ZIP System panels install quickly and stay flat, for a roof that looks as good as it performs. ZIP System sheathing and tape form a durable, water-resistant underlayment for many finished roof coverings, including metal, tile and asphalt shingles, fibreglass shingles and cedar shakes.
