Thermax™ XARMOR™ (ci) Exterior Insulation
What is Dow Thermax XARMOR?
Dow Thermax XARMOR CI Exterior Insulation consists of a glass-fiber-reinforced polyisocyanurate foam core faced with 4 mil embossed BLUE thermoset-coated aluminum on one side and 1.25 mil embossed aluminum on the other. When used as part of the Dow Thermax Wall System, the integral, durable thermoset-coated aluminum facer provides a drainage plane, water-resistive barrier and exterior sheathing; eliminating the extra steps of installing a membrane, building wrap and exterior gypsum. The DuPont™ Thermax™ Wall System (TWS) is more than an insulated wall – it’s a systematic approach to achieving efficiency at every level: simplified design, streamlined construction and optimized energy consumption for a reduced carbon footprint.THERMAX XARMOR™ (ci)
