Formawall® Dimension Series® Factory Foamed Metal Panel System

Product Description

CENTRIA Formawall Dimension Series is the only wall system that provides both advanced thermal efficiency and moisture control in a single panelized component. This extraordinary performance, combined with integrated wall components—such as windows, louvers and sunshades—and the system's ability to provide designers virtually unlimited possibilities in form, color and texture, make Formawall Dimension Series today's preferred metal wall system.

Compared to traditional multi-component wall construction—typically requiring several separate components including: a rainscreen, an air barrier, exterior gypsum sheathing, fiberglass insulation and a vapor barrier—Formawall Dimension Series only requires one component to create a wall with superior thermal efficiency and moisture control in any environment.
