Water Barrier

Water barrier is a type of material designed to provide a barrier to water, while allowing water vapor to pass through. It is often used in roofing, walls, and foundations of buildings to prevent water damage. Water barriers are typically made of rubber or plastic, and are designed to be flexible and durable enough to withstand the elements. Water barriers are also used in landscaping, to create a barrier between soil and water, and to reduce the amount of water that can seep through the soil and into the building.

Waterproofing, moisture protection, moisture control, waterproof membrane.
