W-Wall is assembled at the construction site by framers and/or spray foam contractors. W-Wall is fire rated for two hours, passing ASTM E119 in accordance with IBC requirements, making it the first spray foam wall assembly solution of its kind to pass. The W-Wall assembly also notably allows for easy installation and an overall quicker build as compared to alternate partition wall solutions, essentially reducing labor costs.
“The benefits of W-Wall are clear when you consider the long-term performance consistency of spray foam, and the reduced labor costs and improved assurances of meeting construction milestones that come with it,” adds Brady. “This assembly design is essentially a simpler, better solution for architects and builders. It’s also faster and easier to install.”
Many of Huntsman Building Solutions’ open cell spray foam insulation solutions have been successfully certified for effective use with W-Wall. These high-performance insulations include: Sealection 500, Sealection NM, FOAM-LOK 450, FOAM-LOK 500, OC NO-MIX, Classic Ultra Select, Classic Plus and Classic Ultra.
Additional certifications of W-Wall include: ASTM E90-STC 57, ASTM E2178 Air Permeance, ESL 1373 – ICC Evaluation Service Listing, and TER 2011-01 – Technical Evaluation Report. W-Wall is also, depending on the installed products, Greenguard Gold certified, indicating low VOC emission, ensuring better indoor air quality
