Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport

Phoenix, AZ

Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport in Phoenix, Arizona, uses 51,000 SF of GreenGirt Max CMH™ over metal studs, behind ACM cladding, with mineral wool insulation. It is an airport facility, designed by SmithGroup and built and installed by Kovach Inc.

In Phoenix’s hot desert climate, an airport building is subject to a substantial, near-constant cooling load across a large facade. GreenGirt Max CMH carries the ACM on deep girts over a continuous mineral wool layer, keeping the insulation unbroken across the steel studs so the wall retains a high effective R-value and limits heat transfer into a heavily conditioned interior.
