BASF Corporation, headquartered in Florham Park, New Jersey, is the North American affiliate of BASF SE, Ludwigshafen, Germany.
BASF introduced its MAXFLASH™ liquid membrane for the residential construction market at the 2017 International Builders’ Show that was held on January 10-12, 2017, in Orlando, Florida.
With its easy application to several types of substrates and quick cure time, MAXFLASH offers builders, contractors, and remodelers a high performance flashing solution for complex window configurations, irregular surfaces, and large and setback window openings.
Traditional window flashing applications such as housewrap, peel and stick membranes, and flashing tapes can leave wall cavities susceptible to moisture if installed incorrectly. MAXFLASH is an alternative that offers easy application, installation even to damp surfaces, and durability in all climates.
“Working with builders, we understand the importance of streamlining the construction process without compromising quality,” said Rick Davenport, Business Development Manager at BASF. “MAXFLASH not only helps save time and reduces application error, it offers an entirely new level of convenience through its compatibility with damp substrates and ability to withstand immediate rainfall.”
MAXFLASH is the latest addition to BASF’s BEYOND.High Performance® approach, which combines innovative chemistry and applied building sciences. MAXFLASH is one more way that BASF and its multi-disciplinary team of experts help builders identify opportunities to incorporate innovative and high performing materials to solve construction challenges.
BASF demonstrated the MAXFLASH liquid flashing application process at the IBS Show Village in the outdoor exhibition area, offering builders the chance to see its ease of use firsthand.
