Barrier Solutions

While Expansion Joint Covers, by themselves, do not offer a fire rating, it is very common to pair them with a fire barrier system to meet the fire ratings of your project and prevent the spread of fire from one space to another. We offer ratings up to three-hours depending on the application and also offer thermal and vapor barriers to provide environmental protection. Our thermal vapor barrier systems are available in values of R13, R19, and R30.
