With the latest variations, builders now have three foam
thickness options: 1/2-inch foam (R3), 1-inch foam (R5) and
1-1/2-inch foam (R7). Featuring cutting-edge Owens Corning®
FOAMULAR® NGX™ XPS foam, these panels can strengthen thermal
resistance and help shield homes against fluctuating temperatures.
This provides potential energy savings for homeowners.
LP NovaCore sheathing’s installation mirrors traditional OSB
structural sheathing and utilizes standard 2x4 spacing so that
builders can seamlessly integrate these panels into their projects
without the need for extensive framing adjustments. This
streamlined approach enhances construction efficiency to help save
time and money.
“Expanding our range of insulated sheathing reflects LP’s
dedication to meeting the evolving needs of builders,” said LP
NovaCore Product Manager Billy Webb. “It’s important to us to find
ways to make their lives easier, and that includes helping them
meet new insulation requirements without sacrificing more time for
complex or additional steps. We strive to simplify the construction
process while addressing the escalating demand for energy-efficient
solutions. We’re delivering on our promise to Build a Better World,
no matter the region or climate.”
LP NovaCore sheathing is among the few insulated panel products
designed for high performance at extreme temperatures. The R-value
measures thermal resistance and how well a particular material
keeps heat from moving into or out of a structure. LP NovaCore
sheathing is made with Owens Corning’s continuously extruded
polystyrene (XPS), which provides continuous insulation without the
long-term R-value deterioration associated with other foam
insulation products. By providing varying levels of insulation, LP
empowers building professionals to meet diverse national building
codes and certifications, including LEED®, ENERGY STAR® and Green
Building Standard ICC 700-2008.
