EPS/XPS Sheathing

Atlas Web Technologies provides the foam panel industry with a coated fiberglass facer (CGF) that is applied to the core thus giving superior dimensional stability, increased wind uplift, water resistance, as well as many other benefits. WEBTECH® CGF provides superior weather resistance that allows commercial and residential builders to apply the foam panel product behind stucco, brick, siding, EIFS, and other exterior veneers.

The Atlas Web Technologies Coated Glass Facers that are manufactured for foam panel products are usually constructed of a glass fiber wet process mat coated with a latex based, highly inorganic filled coating. The glass mat serves as reinforcement for the coating, and also the end product for improved features. Testing of WEBTECH CGF shows it will not support the growth of mold and mildew.

Atlas Web Technologies has printing and coloring capabilities for all CGF products as well as the ability to provide branding through the use of company logos, messages, etc.
