Dripstop is a smarter and more cost-effective solution to stop the effects of dripping, raining and sweating inside a building due to condensation forming on metal panels.
Dripstop is a felt-like, pre-installed membrane designed to retain moisture as it forms overnight and releases
it back into natural vapor in the air the next day. The membrane can hold as much as one quart of water per
10 square feet – that's 21 pounds of moisture per
roofing square!
Dripstop adds a durable fiber-forged layer underneath the steel that cannot be easily scratched, ripped or torn. The rubber-coating of Dripstop protects steel from corrosive elements. Dripstop comes with a 20-year adhesion warranty, and its adhesion improves with age.
For metal roof contractors this option is a tried-and-tested product that saves time and money. Arriving pre-installed, Dripstop eliminates the builder's least favorite part of the construction process; installing insulation. Without having to install insulation and a vapor barrier, builders can see where they step and save half the time on the roof, increasing job site safety. Dripstop enhances your reputation for quality workmanship and customer satisfaction.

Dripstop has actually been proven and tested as a protective coating on steel from elements found in livestock confinement.
Self-storage is a demanding market for Dripstop due to its durability against ripping and tearing.
