Knight Wall Systems announced the launch of ANKIT, a proprietary new fastener to be used in conjunction with Knight’s CI and HCI systems to further aid in overcoming the challenges of thermal bridging and wind-driven rain.
As urbanization becomes more prevalent, the built environment’s impact on climate change and local ecosystems will worsen. Since thermal bridging significantly reduces buildings’ energy efficiency, it’s one of the main drivers for these outcomes. What technologies and analytical techniques can prevent heat loss?
PanelShield SA joins three other underlayments offered by ATAS. For underlayments, ATAS has added PanelShield™ SA, by VaproShield, to their product offering.
