FOAMULAR® NGX® AS CONTINUOUS INSULATION

A siding project, either for new construction or a remodeling job, gives access to an essential part of the home that can be frequently overlooked: the exterior walls. Without insulation over the exterior wall, the wall’s interior cavity insulation is only 45–85% effective.1 That is because nearly a quarter of the wall is comprised of wood studs that are in direct contact with the exterior sheathing. This is allowing heat transfer to occur through a process called thermal bridging.

BENEFITS OF XPS INSULATION

EXCEPTIONAL MOISTURE RESISTANCE

FOAMULAR® NGX® XPS offers exceptional moisture resistance, up to 13X more than EPS insulation,2 and is ideal for damp areas like basements and foundations.

DURABILITY

FOAMULAR® NGX® insulation is manufactured to comply with ASTM C578 and accepts design loads with little deformation while holding its strength.

HIGH, STABLE R-VALUES

XPS insulation boards maintain their effectiveness over time and are warranted to retain a minimum of 90% of their R-value.

EASY INSTALLATION

FOAMULAR® NGX® XPS foam boards have a lightweight composition and are easy to handle, score, and cut.

SUSTAINABILITY

Announcing the 2025 Shingle Color of the Year

MERLOT

Savoring everyday moments as toast-worthy occasions, we raise our glass to Merlot. Inspired by the rich warmth and beauty of a sunset enjoyed at the end of the day, Owens Corning TruDefinition® Duration® Designer Merlot brings to life sophisticated layers of warm gray, oaky brown and spiced sienna with deep red and purple undertones for a complex arrangement that exudes refinement.

Steeped in history and tradition, this Americana-inspired pairing evokes a sense of nostalgia. With its bold and classic look, Merlot adds a sophisticated touch that complements the timeless appeal of this style.

Get Inspired with Style Boards

To you it’s more than just a roof—it’s an expression of your personality and style! Sometimes you just need to see the entire vibe of the design before you can decide on the roof color you want. To help, we’ve created style boards using our popular Duration Series Shingles. Take a look.

October 17, 2024

NAILING ZONE PERFORMANCE 
WHY THE NAIL ZONE MATTERS

Owens Corning® Oakridge® and Duration® Series Shingles outperform where it matters most–the nailing zone. Compared to competitive shingles with wide, single-layer nailing zones, our architectural shingles provide outstanding resistance to high winds, help deter water infiltration and help keep the shingle layers from separating. And our testing proves it.

ADDED PROTECTION FOR YOUR HOME: 
FOAMULAR CONTINUOUS INSULATION (CI)

FOAMULAR® NGX® XPS can be used as continuous insulation to increase the overall performance of a wall during new builds or retrofit projects. Adding continuous insulation during a re-siding project increases the R-value.

THERMAL LOSS

DO YOU KNOW THE 5 REASONS TO RE-INSULATE A HOME?

How To Cash In On Billions In Green Home Improvement Tax Credits And Rebates

90% of US homes are under-insulated – they need it!

NAIMA estimate based on Boston University study. "Underinsulated" here means when compared to the minimum prescriptive wall and ceiling insulation R-values found in the 2006 International Energy Conservation Code (IECC).

Highest ROl project anyone can do at 117%!

Fiberglass attic insulation outperformed all other home improvement projects in Remodeling magazine's 2016 "Cost vs. Value" Report, with homeowners recouping 116.9% of the cost in added home value.

Tax rebates will cover a significant portion of the costs, up to $1,200 per year.

Insulation has the highest tax credit payout of weatherization projects.

Shouldn’t everyone be comfortable in their own home?!

HOW THE IRA CAN MAKE RESILIENCE AFFORDABLE

With the cost of homeownership skyrocketing and extreme weather on the rise, it's increasingly important to know if homes are financially and physically resilient.

Housing affordability is a nationwide concern for homeowners. Rising costs across insurance, taxes, and utilities are creating serious financial strain. These rising costs are alarming enough, but when combined with the increasing threat of severe weather events, like the recent snowstorm in Portland, Oregon, that left 132,000 people without power for over a week, risks are leading homeowners to question if they're properly prepared.

The 2024 Atlantic Hurricane forecast released by Colorado State predicts that this will be a record year for named hurricanes, with an estimated 23 storms expected, including 11 hurricanes and five category 3 or higher storms. That could drive insurance costs even higher. These concerns are weighing heavily on all homeowners.

Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) incentives are available per household for projects like heat pump upgrades, insulation improvements, and solar installations, potentially saving homeowners thousands per year on utility costs. These upgrades, while requiring some upfront investment, can significantly reduce the ongoing cost of homeownership. Learn more about IRA tax credits HERE.
