Covestro Materials Utilized in Award-Winning Building Applications
Summary
To address the leakage issues that are common when metal buidlings are joined together, Bee Sweet Citrus had previously applied 133,720 square feet of SPF roofing to the plant.“Sustainability is central to our business, so we are particularly pleased to have played a role in these two noteworthy projects.” The Bee Sweet Citrus facility and the NextGen Net Zero/Healthy Home are just two examples of how the use of Covestro SPF and coatings materials can lead to award-winning results.It incorporates a systems approach to achieve maximum energy and water efficiency.The wood structural support beams of the home are continuous, curved from the floor and up over the wall to form the roof.The envelope system had to be closely coordinated due to the number of different materials, and to ensure it would remain intact during transportation.USI applied Bayseal® Closed-Cell (CCX) SPF insulation from Covestro to the walls and roof.USI sprayed the Bayseal® CCX SPF directly onto the polyiso in between the framing, then applied Bayblock® roof coating on top of that.SPF was the ideal insulation to overcome the installation challenges caused by this home’s irregular shape.
