TRUFAST to Showcase New Product Innovations at IIBEC 2024

TRUFAST^®, a leader in technical solutions for the building envelope, will offer contractors, architects and engineers an up-close look at its latest product innovations during the IIBEC International Convention & Trade Show March 8–11 in Phoenix (Booth #334). The convention, annually hosted by the International Institute of Building Enclosure Consultants (IIBEC), will welcome 1,700 building enclosure professionals from around the globe for education and networking opportunities, plus an opportunity to explore new products in the industry.

“At TRUFAST, we have long prided ourselves in advancing the industry with fastening solutions for every surface,” said Derek Fielding, VP strategic marketing, Altenloh, Brinck & Co. US, Inc. “We look forward to connecting with IIBEC members and discussing ways our vast product portfolio can support them.”

Products to be featured at the expo include Thermal-Grip™ Insulation Pins for steel studs (12–18 gauge) and the Grip-Deck™ TubeSeal™ range—all recently introduced from TRUFAST^® Walls. Grip-Deck™ TubeSeal™ fasteners, which include designs for both insulation attachment and lath attachment, help seal blind fastener penetrations of air barriers or weather-resistant barriers. Visitors to the booth will be able to witness the effect of the TubeSeal products through a live simulation demonstration.

On the roofing side of the business, TRUFAST will be showcasing its new EasySeal™ Retrofit Roof Drain, which features a unique mechanical seal and custom tool for quick and easy installation. Unlike other retrofit drains, EasySeal does not have a sealant tape (which can become exposed during shipping and handling, thus expanding before installation) or multiple screws that can only be accessed with a long screwdriver. Every EasySeal drain comes with a special tool to tighten the drain into place, so contractors will always have the right tool for the job, right at their fingertips.

While TRUFAST is widely known for its mechanical fasteners, the company also offers a portfolio of roofing adhesives and sealants.
