A Reflection of Innovation: Mirrored Cabins using Protean Honeycomb Panels When you think of spending time in nature, you may think of fresh mountain air, abundant wildlife, and serene landscapes. That’s what Valley Bear Farms in the Appalachian Mountains of North Carolina offers nature-lovers on its 150-acre of private estate. However, the owners wanted to take that feeling of being enveloped by nature to new heights. They wanted to build mirrored cabins that reflect their surroundings to deepen the feeling of connection with nature. Scott Latell of Ed Burdette Construction (EBC), the builder enlisted on the project, reached out to SpecSouth Group to help source materials for these mirrored cabins in the woods. Ty Routen of SpecSouth told Mr. Latell that he had the perfect panel for the job. The teams at EBC, SpecSouth and Protean worked together to bring the vision to life. They chose Protean honeycomb metal panels (HMP) with #8 polished stainless-steel skins and aluminum honeycomb core to make sure the panels were as flat as possible.

248 years and counting… This 4th of July, let’s celebrate freedom, cherish our one united nation, and pay tribute to the men and women who made it possible. Happy Independence Day! #4thofJuly #July4th #IndependenceDay

Protean has a busy conference schedule in early June! We will be in Portland for the following back-to-back meetings: Portland Building Enclosure Council (BEC) on June 4 https://lnkd.in/gspru3rf Construction Specifications Institute (CSI) on June 6 https://lnkd.in/gSnB4unP Both events are exciting opportunities for architects, engineers, contractors and builders to meet, learn about and discuss innovations in the industry. As a Gold Sponsor of the June 6 CSI meeting, Protean will have a partner booth with Window Tech, Inc. where Russell Harrison with Window Tech will be on hand to discuss our new HC-2000RS Honeycomb Metal Panels (HMPs). The HC-2000RS series is an AAMA 508-certified pressure-equalized rainscreen system that provides an unequalled combination of rain control and negative wind-load control with variable face materials and panel sizes for design flexibility. These HMPs offer designers functionality and sustainability: they are made of aluminum face, core and liner materials, which means they are infinitely recyclable. If you would like to set up a meeting with Protean at either event, please contact Protean rep Russell Harrison at [email protected]. We look forward to connecting with other building professionals and hope to see you in Portland! #architecturaldesign #commercialarchitecture #commercialconstruction #buildingdesign #insulatedmetalpanels #rainscreens #rainscreensystem #sustainable #sustainability

A big shout out to our Team for achieving 508 Certification without sacrificing the integrity of our product or adding unwarranted cost. The HC-2000RS is a great addition to our product offering. Who doesn't want higher performance at a lower price?

May the spirit of Memorial Day inspire us to live with gratitude and compassion. #MemorialDay2024 #WeRemember

Protean is excited to announce the launch of our new AAMA 508-Certified Honeycomb Metal Panel (HMP) Rainscreen System. Like all lines of our Honeycomb Metal Panels (HMPs), the HC-2000RS weighs less than aluminum plate and aluminum composite panels while providing strength and increased wind-load resistance. They also offer the same high aesthetic appeal: crisp edges with sharp reveals on large, smooth expanses. Unlike our other HMP series, the HC-2000RS is a true, pressure equalized rainscreen. AAMA 508-Certified, these rainscreens offer a multiple-line-of-defense approach coupled with the design flexibility inherent in HMP systems. This means that our new HC-2000RS offers high-end performance while being economical from both an installation and maintenance perspective. All our HMPs are constructed with non-combustible materials for NFPA-285 applications, which makes them infinitely recyclable and supportive of sustainability objectives. The HC-2000RS is fire safe, sustainable and performance tested. We’re proud to offer the industry these beautiful and functional rainscreen panels and can’t wait to see them on new projects. See our website (https://lnkd.in/d4w8XKM6) and technical specs page (https://lnkd.in/d_F5gy8T) for more details, or contact Troy Ethen, ([email protected]) with questions.

Building Envelope Consultant Recommends Custom Fit IMPs - Protean Construction Products has promoted custom fit IMPs as a more economical and sustainable alternative to ACM panels. This stance has been viewed with skepticism by some in the industry.?Protean put that skepticism to the test seeking a Third-party endorsement. ? NCLOSE, a building envelope consultancy based in Portland, OR performed independent research and published a Technical Recommendation for Insulated Metal Panels (IMP) vs. Aluminum Composite Material. The research included building code compliance, subcontractor cost estimates and sustainability factors. ? The Technical Recommendation concludes Custom-fit IMP should be considered to leverage less layers (furring and exterior insulation) in comparison to an “ACM with an exterior insulation / furring” assembly. Custom-fit IMPs can offer a higher R-value per inch, saving space which may make the building slightly smaller or potentially allow more usable space.?IMPs offer a faster construction schedule due to a lower number of layers, and also provide for lower fire hazard and higher recycling potential.?
