Why EMSHIELD?

The role of floors and walls goes far beyond just separating spaces.

Exterior walls are now a vital part of the energy performance plan for structures.

Interior walls and floors are a vital part of the life-safety and interior environmental controls of the structure.

Structural expansion joints and other component joints are gaps in wall and floor assemblies.

The EMSHIELD product line provides all of the performance expectations of the wall or floor assembly in a single installation.

EMSHIELD eliminates the need for additional fire blankets, mineral wools, liquid sealants, cover plates, or other fire stopping materials.
