Featured Products: Gypsum Board Assemblies

BSD gives building product manufacturers the opportunity to explain to SpecLink users the advantages of their products.  In the Fall 2008 update, three manufacturers feature environmentally preferable products. Here is one of them:
SECTION 092116- GYPSUM BOARD ASSEMBLIES
 
DensArmor Plus® panels feature fiberglass mats on both the front and the back for the best in interior protection from moisture currently available. The moisture resistant fiberglass mats make DensArmor Plus panels the ideal replacement for paper faced greenboard. A revolutionary departure from traditional wallboard, the face of DensArmor Plus panels finishes in a manner similar to paper faced wallboard and offers superior performance in resisting mold.
 
Only fiberglass mat DensArmor Plus allows contractors to hang interior drywall before the building is enclosed.  Paper faced products are often damaged by wind-driven rain and moisture during installation. DensArmor Plus stands up to normal weather conditions, which allows for acceleration of schedules and the potential reduction of costly delays. DensArmor Plus offers a 6-month limited exposure warranty that guards against delamination and deterioration when exposed to normal weather conditions during and after installation.

Areas of use include:

• Interiors of exterior walls, where moisture intrusion is most likely.
• When the windows, doors or roof have not been installed, making moisture intrusion inevitable (“pre-rock” conditions).
• Areas likely to be exposed to moisture, where paper faced greenboard may have been specified in the past.
