Amgard is an insulated, prefinished panel designed to be installed on the exterior perimeter of a building at or near grade. The combination of closed cell, high density Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) foam with high strength fiber reinforced cement makes for a high quality and durable panel.
The 5/16″ (8mm) thick facing provides the panels with superb impact resistance while keeping the panels lightweight (22-26lb (10-12kg)). The wall panels are installed using specially designed galvanized steel clips. Amgard panels can be used in both new and retrofit applications for commercial, residential, industrial, and institutional applications.
Amgard is a high quality, durable, prefinished insulated panel designed to protect foundations and waterproofing systems at grade and other transition areas in most types of buildings.

The panels come with a high-quality finish providing a consistent appearance with excellent long-term performance.
Improve the energy efficiency and appearance of your home while creating a more comfortable environment.
Amgard has exceptional Long-Term R-Value Retention (LTTR) as well as increased thermal resistance in lower temperatures.
Each panel is easy to handle due to the low weight and can be easily cut.
Acts as continuous insulation in the building envelope, reducing thermal bridging and energy consumption while improving comfort.
EPS foam can be recycled and uses steam and water during manufacturing.
