Roux Center for the Environment

Brunswick, ME

Roux Center for the Environment in Brunswick, ME, uses 17,000 SF of GreenGirt Max CMH™ over metal studs, behind wood siding, with mineral wool insulation. It is a college environmental studies center, designed by CambridgeSeven and built and installed by Warren Construction.

GreenGirt Max CMH holds the wood siding on a thermally broken support outside the framing, keeping the wall insulation continuous through the cold Maine winters. For an environmental studies building, that high-performance envelope reflects the sustainability its program teaches.
