In response to wind barriers, wind screens, and vapor-permeable membranes, MAGOXX® Board offers the revolutionary MAGOXX® Stormstopper!
This serves as protection against weather and wind for buildings still under construction. The Stormstopper ensures that the insulation of the structure remains intact and is not damaged by water.
In a ventilated facade, the Stormstopper ensures that the inner leaf is not affected by moisture, rain, and wind. The rigid board prevents air leaks. Noise disturbance, moisture buildup, and potential heat loss are avoided. The board guarantees the required ventilation behind the facade cladding, while the Stormstopper protects the underlying insulation. This prevents any damage. Did you know that the MAGOXX® Stormstoppers are also safe to use in areas with high salt content, such as along the coast?
The MAGOXX® Stormstopper allows 10% of the facade surface to remain open. Due to its gray color, the panel is less visible through the open joints. The MAGOXX® Stormstopper consists of only one material, which means that no delamination can occur. In other words, there is no need for multiple layers, which often separate over time. The MAGOXX® Stormstopper is certified as a sustainable panel material with an environmental impact (MKI) value of €0.91 per m². MAGOXX® is included in the database for sustainable building materials.
When using MAGOXX® Stormstopper, only the horizontal seams need to be taped. With other manufacturers, vertical seams also need to be taped to make the wall completely waterproof. Taping the seams with MAGOXX® Stormstoppers is more than twice as cost-effective as with competing solutions.
The MAGOXX® Stormstopper is made from the environmentally friendly material Magnesium Oxide. In contrast, vapor-permeable membranes are made from plastic. Besides the fact that plastic is environmentally harmful, the transport of this membrane also poses challenges. When transported, it catches the wind and starts to flap, which can lead to it arriving messy or even damaged. MAGOXX® Stormstoppers, on the other hand, are made from a sturdy, environmentally friendly material.
MAGOXX® Stormstoppers are tested as A1 boards and can be combined with any type of insulation material.
MAGOXX® Board is a product of MAGOXX B.V., a Dutch company. We supply sustainable, cost-effective and innovative building solutions based on magnesium oxide (MgO)
