Resilient Temporary Weather Barrier
TuffWrap® EXT double-reinforced exterior walls temporarily enclose the exterior of a structure.
Large building openings and exterior exposures require specialized installation. Each TuffWrap® temporary building enclosure is custom-engineered to meet the specific structural conditions of the project. We design and manufacture custom mounting hardware that allows the enclosure system to be installed in challenging locations — including projects 50 feet high or greater. The result is a scalable temporary enclosure solution for construction that protects projects of virtually any size.
Unlike tarps, plywood, or shrink wrap, TuffWrap® EXT is engineered specifically for construction weather enclosure applications. The reinforced polyethylene material resists tearing, punctures, and UV degradation while maintaining flexibility during installation.

| FLAME RESISTANT | Yes | No | No | No |
| UV-RESISTANT | Yes | No | No | No |
| TEAR PROTECTION | 7-ply material, couple scrim reinforced polyethylene | Limited tear protection | Rigid wood breaks, doesn’t tear | Offers no tear protection, becomes brittle |
| WIND LOAD | Up to occasional 45 mph gusts | Subject to ballooning and flyaway | Rigid wood breaks, doesn’t tear | Subject to ballooning and flyaway |
| INSTALLATION | Custom Installed by TuffWrap professionals | Complicated install, risk of frequent re-install | Significant expense to install | Requires special equipment and permits to install |
| PROJECT SIZE | Capable of protecting entire project up to and beyond 50 ft high | Limited by available scaffolding | Limited by available scaffolding | Limited by available scaffolding |
TuffWrap® EXT temporary building enclosures help contractors reduce weather delays, improve jobsite safety, and maintain productivity throughout the construction season. By enclosing open structures with a durable weather barrier, TuffWrap® EXT allows teams to work confidently in unpredictable conditions while protecting valuable construction progress.
TuffWrap® EXT temporary exterior walls are constructed from a seven-layer engineered polyethylene material designed to withstand demanding jobsite conditions.
This advanced material provides:
Superior puncture resistance
Industry-leading tear strength
Flame resistance for jobsite safety
UV protection for long-term outdoor exposure
Combined with TuffWrap’s professional installation process, EXT delivers a temporary building enclosure system that keeps projects on schedule while protecting crews and structures from the elements.
TuffWrap® Installations is the North American leader in dust, debris, and construction containment solutions, keeping facilities operational while providing innovative protection during re-roofing, renovation, and reconstruction projects.
