3 Ways SMARTci Building Enclosure Systems Can Reduce Costs on Your Job Site

Several factors can make or break a budget for contractors on a job site. With the SMARTci building enclosure system, you can reduce costs while still delivering the highest quality results your clients expect. Here’s how:

Using Innovative Materials

Many architects and contractors rely on familiar materials to meet project timelines and quality expectations. While this approach might seem efficient, it can mean missing out on cost-saving advancements in building technology. One such innovation is the SMARTci building enclosure system, which is engineered for superior performance and cost efficiency.

SMARTci eliminates thermal bridging, improves energy efficiency, and reduces the need for costly additional materials. This innovation not only enhances the quality of your build but also reduces long-term heating and cooling expenses for your clients. With its high performance, cost recovery from energy savings can happen in as little as two years, depending on the project size and location.

Faster, More Efficient Installation

Time is money on a job site, and any delay can escalate project costs. SMARTci helps streamline the construction process with its GreenGirt CMH sub-framing, comprising of a composite metal hybrid material, which is designed for rapid, intuitive installation. The system’s insulation retention ThermaLock eliminates the need for slow, expensive through-fastening methods for insulation retention, reducing installation time.

With SMARTci, installations can be up to four times faster than traditional building enclosure systems, thanks to its easy stack-and-go installation process with its primary components, GreenGirt CMH sub-framing and custom-profiled dual foil-faced polyiso insulation panels. This efficiency can significantly lower labor costs and help keep your project on schedule, saving you both time and money.

Reducing Material Waste

On any job site, reducing material waste is key to controlling costs. Excess material use not only increases expenses but also leads to disposal fees and wasted time. SMARTci helps minimize material waste with its precise design and efficient use of components.

GreenGirt CMH™ sub-framing is designed to be cut and fabricated on-site with minimal waste, reducing the need for excessive material ordering and cutting errors. Additionally, the systems’ custom-profiled insulation panels are manufacturer-precise and pre-cut before getting to the job site, reducing on-site labor, time, and human errors. This reduces the material wasted and the time spent correcting issues on the job site.

By reducing material waste, contractors can save on the cost of additional materials and disposal fees while maintaining a cleaner, more organized job site that operates more efficiently.
