Optimizing Building Envelope Efficiency with Sika Emseal Precompressed Foam Joint Sealants.

Did you know that the R-value of your buildings exterior wall system could be dictated by the expansion joints you choose? When it comes to sealing structural gaps, thermal performance is often overlookedyet it plays a critical role in energy efficiency.

A prime example is the MIT PDSI building, where SEISMIC COLORSEAL-DS was used to seal window wall systems. With an R-value approaching R-14 for the 5 3/4-inch deep material at window perimeters, this solution significantly improves the insulation at critical points, minimizing heat loss.

As pointed out by Tom Kuckhahn, heat flows through the path of least resistance, which means the weakest insulating part of a wall sets the effective R-value. Thats why selecting high-performance expansion joint sealants, like Sika Emseal, can prevent thermal leaks and reduce energy costs, which can account for up to 32% of a buildings operating budget.

Maximize energy efficiency, sustainability, and cost-effectiveness by considering the thermal rating of your expansion joints.
