BUILDING ENVELOPE PRODUCT WALLSHIELD®
PROJECT DESCRIPTION Exhibited in conjunction with Building Design + Construction Magazine, Project FROG’S 1,282-square foot FROG Zero™ classroom was on display during the 2008 U.S. Green Building Council’s Greenbuild International Conference and Expo.
Project FROG™, (Flexible Response to Ongoing Growth) is a San Francisco-based company founded in 2006 with the mission of designing and manufacturing smart buildings. The FROG Zero classroom incorporates the latest and greatest in eco-friendly sustainable features and products.
Architects and engineers agree that buildings must be able to breathe. The FROG Zero classroom featured WALLSHIELD® because of its breathable technology and eco-friendly construction. VaproShield’s WALLSHIELD®, is unsurpassed in performance and has the highest drying capacity in the industry at 212 perms. WALLSHIELD® ensures water-saturated sheathings dry quickly, preventing mold, mildew, rot, metal corrosion and reduced insulation thermal values. WALLSHIELD® is tear, rip and puncture resistant during and after construction, reducing repairs and labor costs. It installs easily and can span framing members without a solid substrate providing moisture protection, ensuring cost-effective completion of the "dry-in" phase.
VaproShield products are environmentally sensible. Membranes are inert, 100% recyclable and can be recycled into their original bead form. VaproShield products contribute to achieving LEED points in both the Energy & Atmosphere and the Indoor Environmental Quality categories.
