Three Layers. Built to Perform as One.

Tri-Strata™ Technology is the foundation behind Polyanchor® HU and HU PLUS underlayments. Engineered as a three-layer construction, Tri-Strata brings together strength, durability, and sealability to address critical jobsite challenges.

By combining distinct material layers into a unified construction, Tri-Strata Technology is designed to support performance where underlayments are put to the test: under foot traffic, around fasteners, and during exposure on the roof.

Know about this Technology

  • Tri-Strata™ Technology is featured in:

    • Polyanchor® HU
      Designed for dependable performance and installation efficiency in new construction
    • Polyanchor® HU PLUS
      Designed to maintain performance under increased jobsite traffic, more demanding deck conditions, and reroofing applications

    Both products utilize the same three-layer construction, allowing contractors to select the right solution based on project needs while maintaining consistency in installation and performance.

    Put Tri-Strata™ Technology to Work

    Tri-Strata™ Technology brings together durability, sealability, and jobsite resilience in a layered construction designed to perform throughout installation and support long-term roof system protection.

  • Tri-Strata™ Technology is a patent-pending, three-layer construction designed to work together to enhance underlayment performance across key jobsite demands.

    It consists of:

    • Upper fabric layerengineered for durability, tear resistance, and traction under foot traffic
    • Modified bitumen coredesigned to conform around fasteners and penetrations to enhance nail sealability
    • Lower fabric layerthat helps provide stability and strength across the deck surface

    Together, these layers are engineered to:

    • Help distribute jobsite stress across the material surface
    • Maintain flexibility and integrity during handling, fastening, and installation activity
    • Enhance resistance to tearing, punctures, and weathering
    • Support protection against moisture intrusion at nail penetration points

    This layered construction allows the underlayment to deliver consistent performance across varying roof deck conditions and installation scenarios.

  • Tri-Strata™ Technology is designed to address the practical conditions contractors encounter on steep-slope roofing projects, including:

    • Foot traffic during installation and material staging, including tile stacking
    • Fastener penetrations across the deck surface
    • Variability in deck condition, particularly in reroofing applications

    By combining durable surface layers with a sealable modified bitumen core, Tri-Strata Technology helps the underlayment withstand jobsite demands while maintaining a reliable protective barrier beneath the finished roof system.
