Everlast Siding's New Code Compliance Research Report (CCRR) Assures Contractors and Builders that Popular Composite Siding Meets Stringent Building Codes
HUDSON, Ohio, Aug. 1, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Every day, building professionals around the country rely upon Code Compliance Research Reports (CCRR) from Architectural Testing Inc. (ATI) to determine whether a product, component or method of construction complies with a specified code. Quite simply, CCRR provides building officials and decision makers with substantial evidence that the product complies with applicable provisions of their building codes.
After extensive testing, analysis and evaluation by licensed professional engineers, Everlast Polymeric Siding (www.everlastsiding.com), sold exclusively through Norandex Building Materials Distribution, Inc., has achieved a CCRR showing compliance with a host of ASTM building codes. CCRR 0201 is the report for Everlast Siding and can be accessed on the ATI web site: http://www.archtest.com/certification/code_compliance_research_reports_ccrr.aspx.
"This accomplishment is the culmination of months of hard work," said Norandex Vice President, Marketing Van Garber. "With CCRR 0201, we now have clear, third-party evidence that Everlast will perform in accordance with ASTM standard specifications. In effect, this report means that contractors and builders can trust that when specifying Everlast it will meet the required building codes."
Everlast siding is extruded from a specially formulated PVC composite comprised of polyvinylchloride and inorganic minerals. Extruded planks are ¼-in. thick, providing superior dimensional strength. But even though Everlast is sturdy, it is also lightweight – about half the weight of fiber cement siding. Everlast is available in 14 popular colors that are protected with ColorHold®, a UV-stable acrylic polymer. The fade-resistant finish never needs painting, and is backed by a Lifetime Fade Warranty. Everlast is available in two sizes (7-in." and 4 ½-in. clapboard), includes color-coordinating accessories, and is 100% recyclable.
"Everlast presents contractors with an environmentally friendly superior performing alternative to siding products currently on the market," said Garber.
