Weyerhaeuser to distribute Ox Engineered products
Weyerhaeuser Distribution will start offering sheathing products from Ox Engineered through its Houston location.
New to the Houston network are products like Thermo-Ply Structural Sheathing, Styrofoam SIS Structural Insulated Sheathing, and ISO Red Polyiso Foam Sheathing.
“Ox Engineered’s diverse lineup of sheathing products has been the perfect complement to Weyerhaeuser Distribution’s other offerings, providing our dealer customers and building pros with ample options to meet code requirements and design goals,” said David Helmers, VP Weyerhaeuser Distribution. “From strength to water resistance to energy enhancement, Thermo-Ply, Styrofoam SIS and ISO Red offer efficient, reliable means for constructing high-performance building envelopes.”
Thermo-Ply Structural Sheathing is an alternative to wood structural paneling made from pressure-laminated plies of high-strength cellulosic fibers specially treated to be water-resistant, bonded with a water-resistant adhesive, and topped on both sides with a polymer layer.
Styrofoam SIS Structural Insulated Sheathing provides structural lateral bracing and transverse wind load resistance; insulation; a water-resistive barrier; and an air barrier.
ISO Red Polyiso Foam Sheathing offers continuous insulation for the building envelope, reducing conductive, convective and radiant heat transfer, and providing thermal, air and vapor control layers to keep conditioned spaces comfortable. The product’s closed-cell foam results in higher R-values, moisture resistance and fastener seal-ability compared to housewraps.
