Insulation and Waterproofing for
Metal Buildings & Metal Roof Systems


Insulate and waterproof metal structures for half the price of metal panel replacement in many instances with closed-cell spray polyurethane foam. It adds a number of high-performance attributes to metal structures, roofing and wall cladding assemblies, including: high R-value and moisture controlling thermal insulation, good acoustical performance, reduced uncontrolled air infiltration and exfiltration, great wind uplift resistance, high compressive strength, increased racking strength, and lowered roof surface temperatures.

 

 

 


 


Understanding how water vapor or moisture behaves is essential to designing for it, instead of against it.  The first step, in other words, toward moisture forgiveness.

Water vapor likes to move from warm to cold.  That’s why in summer, moisture drive is from the outside to the inside and can condense on the back side of interior walls…and in the winter, moisture can condense on the back side of exterior sheathing.  Even during the construction process, rain or air-driven moisture can occur anytime during pre-rock and before dry-in.

So it’s time to equip your building with its best defense: the moisture forgiveness of GP Dens™ Brand of fiberglass-mat products for exterior sheathing, interior walls, under tile, in shafts and roofs. You owe it to yourself – and your building – to get the complete story.
