NUDURA TECHNOLOGY
FIRE RESISTANT
up to 4 X more than a typical wood-framed wall.
NUDURA walls are built with steel reinforced concrete and fire retardant-treated
expanded polystyrene foam. Compared to wood-framed walls, NUDURA walls are far
more likely to remain standing in case of a fire, and are far more resistant
to the spread of fire.
SOUND RESISTANT
up to 3 X more than a typical wood-framed wall
NUDURA's double foam insulated concrete core acts as an effective sound barrier,
damening sound vibrations and ensuring a serene and comfortable ambience within
the home.
DURABLE
up to 9 X more than a typical wood-framed wall.
Due to NUDURA's design, NUDURA's walls have up to 9 times more axial load resistance
than a typical wood-framed wall. NUDURA technology offers enhanced protection
for your home, especially in high-wind areas, and during tornadoes and hurricanes.
ENERGY EFFICIENT
up to 2 X more than a typical wood-framed wall
NUDURA is a highly insulated concrete wall, with no air spaces or studs, that
vastly reduces air
filtration. When combined with an air exchange system, NUDURA technology helps
even out the effect of external temperature swings and provides superior energy-efficiency
as compared to typical wood-framed homes.
COMFORT
up to 9 X more resistant to thermal bridging than a typical wood-framed wall
Outside cold can easily travel through a typical wood-framed wall (thermal bridging)
to create
uncomfortable cold spots inside your home. NUDURA walls offer superior performance
when it comes to thermal bridging and air infiltration. Therefore you can get
even temperatures throughout your home and reduced drafts, cold spots, dampness
and mustiness.
FLEXIBLE
NUDURA'a accurately interlocking, lightweight forms makes it very adaptable to a variety of innovative and efficient designs. NUDURA's concrete core allows for the easy installation of doors and windows without comprimising the structure of your home while curved, sloped and extra tall walls are easily built with NUDURA technology.
