Structural Wood Corporation: Insulated Rim Board

Insulated Rim Board is the Minnesota Solution from Structural Wood Corporation. Cost saving is all about time saving. With SWC's INSUL-RIM.PLUS™, the need to install multiple products is over. You can focus on getting the job done. INSUL-RIM.PLUS™ in 2-5/8" thickness provides an R-8 value and 3-1/8" INSUL-RIM.PLUS™ provides an R-11 insulation value. Both are compliant with Minnesota Energy Code 2000. For even more savings, Insul-Rim Plus also comes in 16' lengths for labor cost savings and to work with all joist spacings. And it can be ordered up to 24" deep so it's compatible with any engineered floor system.
