Built-In Plywood Strapping
Plywood nailing strips and battens/strappings are fixed within the foam rigid insulation panels. You can attach the plywood battens directly to framing members, and fasten cladding materials to the battens.
Advanced Framing Prevents Energy Loss
T&G Connect eliminates thermal bridging and energy loss making it perfect for exterior building envelope insulation for walls and roofs and for interior ceiling and wall applications.
Rigid Insulation System Tested in Cold Climates
A certified laboratory has subjected T&G Connect wall assemblies to environments identical to Canadian winters. The evaluation results were used to create new designs that could comply with, if not surpass, new stricter energy code requirements that will come into effect in January 2018. Give us a call today to discuss how this new Canadian Energy Code will affect you.
