The EMSHIELD WFR2 (which stands for Wall, Fire-Rated, 2-hours) performs all the
functions necessary to accommodate movements in a single installation, reducing
the environmental impact while meeting fire-safety and building codes. By using
less materials, conserving energy and improving safety are cornerstones of LEED
and green building-based design philosophy. The new hybrid wall system is
designed for buildings, stadiums, arenas, hospitals, schools, universities,
airports, parking decks, hotels and other structures where containment of fire
at structural expansion joints is required. Being UL 2079 certified means that
it has been tested and passed the rigorous Underwriters Laboratories expansion
joint sealant cycling and fire testing.
