A System Approach

EnduraMax High Performance Wall System - Features

EnduraMax™ Wall System consists of three essential elements that combine to deliver unmatched performance & beauty to your project.

  1. Foam Installation Panels Masonry Units EnduraMax Mortar
    • Polystyrene insulation panels include premolded cells on the outside face, which form the pattern for installing masonry units. • Drainage channels in the front and back of each panel allow any water that infiltrates the wall to escape.
  2. Masonry Units
    • Masonry units insert easily into the cells of the foam panels for quick installation.
    • Stone, clay and concrete brick options offer unique aesthetically pleasing designs.
  3. EnduraMax Mortar
    • A pre-blended, proprietary mortar that complies with ASTM C270 enhances pumpability, bond strength, flexibility and dimensional stability

Meeting A Higher Standard

EnduraMax’s continuous insulation barrier is an ideal way to meet Energy Star’s strict energy performance score requirements. Its superior thermal performance will contribute to eligibility for a Designed to Earn the Energy Star (DEES) certification. With the help of EnduraMax, you can truly distinguish a building by being able to meet this prestigious standard for efficiency.

  • Sound Proofing: The EnduraMax Wall system has an STC rating of 61dB as per testing done in accordance with ASTM E90.
  • Wind Rating: Depending on building parameters, EnduraMax Wall System can withstand wind speeds of up to 140 MPH. Tested in accordance with ASTM E330.
  • Fire Resistance: EnduraMax Wall System may be used over any exterior fire resistance rated assembly without changing the assigned hourly rating allowing to meet a 2-hour fire rating. Tested in accordance with ASTM E119. EnduraMax is also NFPA 285 compliant.
  • Moisture Management: As a total cladding solution, EnduraMax integrates all components necessary to achieve superior moisture management. Channels in the front and back of the insulation panels drain any water that may infiltrate the wall, protecting the structure from damage over a long lifetime of moisture exposure.
  • Seismic Info: EnduraMax Wall System may be installed in seismic zones A to D. Please refer to the EnduraMax Evaluation Report sections 5.7, 5.8 and 5.9 for specifi c seismic information.

Exceeding Tomorrow’s Codes

As codes continue to move toward tougher building envelope standards, EnduraMax’s superior thermal performance enables you to exceed increasingly stringent R-Value requirements, without having to add additional exterior insulation or build larger wall cavities. EnduraMax may be installed on metal frame or wood frame buildings up to climate zone 6. Zones 7 and 8 may also be addressed by evaluating the building characteristics and installation details.
