The Leader in Polyiso Insulation and Specialty Products
Since 1978, Rmax has provided superior quality and personal service in the manufacture and delivery of commercial, industrial and residential roof insulation, wall insulation and specialty products. Insulation is our only business, so we have to excel to succeed. And we do. Our people understand the diverse markets our products are used in. Their integrity and responsiveness work to your advantage. We're also readily accessible, with manufacturing plants in Dallas, TX, Greer, SC and Fernley, NV – and sales offices coast-to-coast.
As one of the founding organizations behind the Polyisocyanurate Insulation Manufacturers Association (PIMA), our industry commitment has led the way to the development and acceptance of environmentally sound polyiso products, solutions for all manner of applications.
Environmentally sound and engineered for high R-Values
The United States Green Building Council (USGBC) developed the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED)® Rating System as the standard for green buildings. The LEED system establishes basic requirements for various aspects of sustainable design.
Rmax polyiso insulation products may help in the process of qualifying for LEED credits in a number of categories. Ask your local Rmax sales representative for assistance in determining where Rmax products can be used to help obtain credits for LEED certification.
LTTR is a scientifically supported method of calculating the 15-year, time-weighted average for insulation R-values.
For energy efficiency, environmental sensibility and all around quality, specify Rmax. Our quality stands up to the test.
BuildBlock Building Systems is the manufacturer of BuildBlock, BuildLock, BuildRadius, BuildDeck, and GlobalBlock insulating concrete forms technology. Combining the strength and endurance of reinforced concrete with the superior insulating properties of EPS foam, ICFs create structures that are quieter, environmentally-friendly, energy efficient, comfortable, durable and safer than conventional construction. BuildBlock created the most installer-friendly block in the world integrating a molded-in tape measure and a fully-reversible block to speed construction reduce mistakes, eliminate waste and save money.
Whether you're building a home or a multi-level commercial structure, you can't beat the benefits of building with BuildBlock ICFs. BuildBlock ICFs are completely reversible and combine the standard features you've come to expect in quality ICFs with some unique benefits you'll find no where else.
Insulated concrete forms (ICFs) are hollow foam blocks which are stacked into the shape of the exterior walls of a building, reinforced with steel rebar, and then filled with concrete. Insulated concrete forms combine one of the finest insulating materials, Expanded Polystyrene (EPS), with one of the strongest structural building materials, steel reinforced concrete. The result is a wall system of unmatched comfort, energy efficiency, strength and noise reduction.
