PROSOCO has joined the CavityComplete® Wall Systems team

As of November 2016, PROSOCO has joined the CavityComplete® Wall Systems team. As the new air and moisture barrier partner, PROSOCO will contribute category-leading components—such as R-Guard® VB—that have been tested and proven to work together with existing system solutions to help manage air, vapor, and water movement. R-Guard VB is a fluid-applied air and water-resistive barrier that stops air and water leakage in cavity wall, masonry veneer construction, as well as in stucco, EIFS and most other building wall assemblies.

As PROSOCO is integrated into the program, www.CavityComplete.com will temporarily have limited content as materials are updated. Installation instructions and other support materials featuring PROSOCO solutions will become available on the revised site within the next few months. However, as of now, all information necessary to specify CavityComplete with PROSOCO products is available on the website.
