Sheathing and

THERMAX

™

White Finish (WF)

insulation offer two quick and

easy options to insulate base-

ment walls. Lightweight and

easy to install, both products

are ideally suited for exposed

basement applications, whether

the desired result is a semi-

finished or finished appearance.

THERMAX Sheathing and

THERMAX White Finish are non-

structural, rigid boards consisting

of a glass-fiber-reinforced poly-

isocyanurate foam core with

solid aluminum facers on both

sides. The exposed surface of

THERMAX Sheathing is reflective

foil, perfect for use in areas such

as a laundry room or storage

space. THERMAX White Finish

insulation features an embossed

white acrylic-coated aluminum

facer on its exposed surface,

for a clean, finished wall that

is durable and washable.

THERMAX products can be

left exposed to the interior

without a thermal barrier in

most applications.* THERMAX

insulation products are Factory

Mutual approved as “Wall-

Ceiling Construction, FM

Approvals Standard FM 4880,
