National Homes’ inside-out approach to design inspired the creation of Panergy Wall Solutions, a next-gen building envelope solution with a low-carbon footprint. Panergy panels can replicate brick, stone, stucco and other siding options, making them a versatile choice for homebuilding. Nine individual layers contribute to their lightweight yet durable structure. Apart from weighing up to 90% less than traditional envelopes, the easy-to-install panels boast superior fire resistance, excellent acoustic performance and exceptional air/weather tightness. Their thermal performance, meanwhile, reduces energy usage by up to 15% for homeowners. Additionally, the panels are prefabricated in a warehouse, reducing on-site installation time by up to 80% and requiring fewer workers—good news for an industry short of bricklayers. This not only decreases emissions but also significantly speeds up the construction process.
