Armatherm™ Z Girt by Armatherm Thermal Bridging Solutions

Armatherm™ cladding support solutions prevent excessive heat loss and prevent potential condensation issues occuring that are often associated with thermal bridges. The material acts as a break, thermally isolating the warm interior wall from the cooler exterior wall, or vice versa. Wall assemblies using ArmaGirt™ Z Girts meet the continuous insulation requirements of ASHRAE 90.1 and Canadian NECB energy code. Armatherm’s innovative Z Girt products also benefit from a simple installation process and secure cladding anchoring base.

Specifying an Armatherm™thermal breaks can improve the efficiency of a wall assembly by as much as 98%. The cladding attachment systems significantly improve thermal performance, the Armatherm™ product range including a Z Girt, clip and thermally broken shims provides a combination of low conductivity and high mechanical properties that transfer loads and reduce energy loss.
