905 EAGLE AVE MOCKUP
Retrofit Mock up S-Wall
The Future of Building Retrofitting – Sustainable, Pretested, and Seamless Installation
S-Wall is Dextall’s groundbreaking non-combustible cladding system, designed for maximum performance and sustainability. Featuring a thermal resistance range of R-10.5 to R-35.5, S-Wall provides superior insulation while passing stringent air and water permeability tests. Priced competitively with EIFS, the system offers a sleek painted metal finish with optional decorative trims. The controlled fabrication process and simplified installation make the S-Wall a top choice for building retrofits, requiring no additional firesafing or field sealant. This innovative system promotes a clean installation environment while reducing material waste through its shop-assembled process, all compliant with NYC’s Local Law 11 for building façades.
At Dextall, we proudly showcased our cutting-edge S-Wall retrofit system in a real-world mockup at Eagle Avenue. This project offered the perfect platform to demonstrate the superior performance and ease of installation of S-Wall.
Key Benefits of S-Wall:
- Thermal Resistance: R-10.5 to R-35.5 ensures superior energy efficiency.
- Pretested for Performance: S-Wall passed rigorous air permeability tests with less than 0.01 cfm/ft² and water permeability up to 25 psf.
- Non-Combustible: No additional firesafing is required, and NFPA 285 compliance is ensured.
- Sustainable Construction: Shop-assembled panels minimize on-site material waste, contributing to a cleaner and more efficient installation process.
- Seamless Installation: Thanks to a gasketed design, the field remains clean, and no additional sealants are necessary. Vertical or horizontal rails attach easily to existing walls.
For the Eagle Avenue project, Dextall’s team utilized 3D scanning technology to precisely measure the building façade, ensuring a perfect fit for our panels. The result was a prompt and smooth installation. Feedback from both the client and architect was overwhelmingly positive, highlighting the system's efficiency and aesthetic appeal. Valuable insights from the mockup will help refine the process for future large-scale projects.
S-Wall is setting new standards in retrofitting by offering a durable, efficient, and sustainable solution for the modern building industry.
