Marflex sponsors Architect's GREEN Design Charrette at Hanley Wood Reinvention 2009

Aug. 24, 2009 - PRLog -- More than 250 of America’s top residential architects will be introduced to the newest GREEN building products from Marflex Building Solutions when they convene in Seattle on September 14 for Residential Architect’s Reinvention 2009.

Three of Marflex’s premium GREEN drainage board products will be on display at Reinvention 2009, offering water flow rates of 30.41 gal./min./sq. ft. up to to 190 gal./hr./lin. ft.

“Today’s high volume of moisture provides a breeding ground for mold and mildew,” said Brett Oakley, Chief Executive Officer of Marflex. “Superior foundations need a high-quality drainage board to eliminate hydrostatic pressure and channel water away from the waterproofing membrane.”

New and improved Drain & Dry drainage board is made with ECOSE Technology that converts bio-based materials into an inert polymer that bonds mineral wool strands together, eliminating the formaldehyde and phenols found in traditional binders. ShockWave and Geo-Mat Plus drainage boards are made from 100% post consumer recyclable products.

“We are proud to offer GREEN building materials that are sustainable and supportive of architects seeking LEED certification,” said Dave Nichols, VP Marketing for Marflex. “LEED certified buildings offer healthier work and living environments, which contribute to improved air and water quality, comfort, and productivity, benefitting owners, occupiers and society as a whole.”
