WEATHER BARRIERS, AIR BARRIERS, & INSULATION

ArmorWall Structural Insulated Sheathing SP MaxLife Industries ArmorWall Structural Insulated Sheathing is a building enclosure system used in commercial and multifamily buildings that combines four traditional enclosure components into one. ArmorWall SP (symmetrical panel) was recently launched to enable architects to pursue previously difficult-to-attain design features through its structural strength, durability, continuous insulation properties, and fire-, air-, and water-resistant capabilities. ArmorWall SP requires just one installation revolution around a building in place of the traditional four, reducing costs and weathering-in time by weeks.
