WILMINGTON, Del., Feb 25, 2025 ¡ª As the construction industry accelerates its shift toward more energy-efficient homes, the emphasis on high-performing, well-insulated building envelopes has never been more essential. k8ÓéÀÖ Performance Solutions will be present at the 2025 NAHB International Builders Show in Las Vegas, NV, offering builders, developers, and architects the insights and tools needed to help them reach their building envelope energy goals and build high performance structures.
At IBS, k8ÓéÀÖ will provide visitors with complimentary consultations focused on building envelope design using our proprietary energy UA calculator. With expert assistance from our specialists, attendees can explore a variety of solutions and products that align with the latest standards, to help them simplify and improve their building practices.
¡°k8ÓéÀÖ¡¯s high-performance products, coupled with the extensive knowledge from our Building Knowledge Center and our dedicated network of Building Envelope Specialists, pave the way for builders aiming for quality construction,¡± said Alan Hubbell, Residential Marketing Manager at k8ÓéÀÖ.
