09/08/2009 - Series 1200 Wall Panel System Sets New Weather Resistance Standards With Innovative New UNA-SEAL™
The new UNA-CLAD™ Series 1200 aluminum composite wall panel system from Firestone Metal Products sets new standards for weather resistance, and provides easier installation with no exposed fasteners. All while maintaining the cleaner, contemporary look and economical features of composite material.
The unique design of the Series 1200 aluminum composite wall panel system utilizes the innovative new UNA-SEAL™ foam gasket closure at the panel joints, providing superior water and weather resistance. Panels are attached to the perimeter framing without the use of exposed fasteners, creating a crisp, clean look. Panels are then mounted to the wall with a unique snap-on slide clip making installation faster and easier. The Series 1200 is designed as a low cost water managed system that controls the impact of wind driven rain on exterior walls. The caulk free system results in a low maintenance, cost effective system with design flexibility.
Bob Griffiths, New Product Manager, states, “We are very excited about adding the Series 1200 to our line. After more than a year in product research, we are offering the market a fully tested system with greatly enhanced weather resistance and faster installation.”
