GreenGirt CMH Roof™

GreenGirt CMH Roof™ is a Class I thermally broken cladding support system engineered for all roof cladding and insulation types.

Continuous insulation system for roofs

GreenGirt CMH Roof™ is a Class I thermally broken cladding support system engineered for all roof cladding and insulation types. Proudly made in the USA by Advanced Architectural Products, it treats the roof as a “fifth wall,” delivering industry-leading thermal and structural performance. GreenGirt CMH Roof is available in GreenGirt Optima CMH™ and GreenGirt Max CMH™ Z-girts.Manufactured with either 0.20” or 0.17” steel-reinforced flanges, GreenGirt CMH Roof is the most effective continuous insulation system for roofs and is designed to meet the performance demands of any type of building. GreenGirt CMH Roof uses the crosswise and lengthwise tensile strength of GreenGirt CMH Z-girts for unmatched durability.

How It Works

The GreenGirt CMH Roof system adheres to the eight continuous insulation best practices. Additional features that make the GreenGirt CMH Roof system stand out as the best choice for your building include:

Easy Installation for all Spacing Demands

GreenGirt CMH Roof is equipped to handle any spacing requirements for simplified alignment, reduced labor, and faster installation – on top of reduced materials and costs.

GreenGirt CMH System Options

GreenGirt Max CMH

GreenGirt Max CMH™ is a Class I continuous insulation system engineered for all weights of cladding, from ACM and fiber cement to terracotta and natural stone. Manufactured with 0.20” steel-reinforced flanges, GreenGirt Max CMH is the strongest Z-girt on the market and is designed to offer the widest spacing possible for continuous insulation systems. GreenGirt Max CMH uses crosswise and lengthwise tensile strength to establish it as more durable than Class II and Class III continuous insulation systems. Learn more >

GreenGirt Optima CMH

GreenGirt Optima CMH™ is a Class I continuous insulation system engineered for light- to medium-weight cladding—including ACM, metal, fiber cement, and high-pressure laminate panels. Optimized with thinner 0.17″ steel-reinforced flanges, GreenGirt Optima CMH reduces steel use and embodied carbon while preserving crosswise and lengthwise tensile strength – resulting in the highest strength-to-weight ratio in its class.
