Vantell Elite Panel is an integrated WRB sheathing panel that combines an MgO-based sheathing board with a factory-laminated self-adhered water-resistive barrier. It is designed to simplify exterior wall construction by replacing the traditional combination of exterior sheathing plus separately installed housewrap.
By integrating the sheathing layer and the WRB layer into one panel, Vantell Elite Panel helps improve installation efficiency, reduce field-applied membrane steps, and support a more continuous exterior air and water barrier when panel joints, fasteners, openings and penetrations are properly sealed with compatible Vantell tapes and flashing components.
The standard sheathing thickness is 12 mm, with customized thicknesses available according to project requirements. Vantell Elite Panel is suitable for prefabricated construction, modular buildings, light steel frame systems and high-performance exterior wall assemblies.

Key Benefits
- Combines MgO sheathing and self-adhered WRB membrane into one integrated panel.
- Helps replace conventional exterior sheathing plus separately installed housewrap.
- Reduces installation steps and improves jobsite efficiency.
- Supports continuous water and air barrier performance when seams and details are properly sealed.
- Provides a stable sheathing substrate for high-performance exterior wall assemblies.
- Suitable for prefabricated construction, modular buildings and light steel frame systems.
- Can be integrated with Vantell tapes, flashing products and sealing accessories for complete envelope protection.
System Use
Vantell Elite Panel should be used as part of a complete exterior wall moisture management system. Panel joints, fasteners, window and door openings, corners, roof-wall transitions and service penetrations should be sealed with compatible Vantell seam tapes, flashing tapes, fastener sealing patches and penetration sealing components.
When properly integrated with the full Vantell envelope system, the panel helps create a more continuous exterior protection layer for water resistance, air-tightness, vapor management and long-term wall durability.
Typical Applications
- Exterior wall sheathing
- Replacement for sheathing plus housewrap assemblies
- Prefabricated wall panels
