The American Architectural Manufacturers Association (AAMA) recently released a new white paper created by the AAMA Aluminum Material Council that discusses the use of aluminum in high-performing building enclosures. AMC-2-26, "Aluminum in High-Performing Building Enclosures," is now available in the AAMA online store as a complimentary download.
"This white paper was needed in order to educate and inform the marketplace about the energy advantages of using aluminum fenestration," said Elizabeth Cotton (Kawneer), chair of the AMC Marketing Committee. "With today's technology, these products can achieve current and foreseeable stringent codes requirements in an efficient and innovative manner, as well as achieving credits through green building certification programs."
