SYNTHEON Inc. has announced a new, heavy-gauge upgrade of its highly successful accel-E Steel Thermal Efficient Panel (S.T.E.P.) wall system. The new panel was designed specifically for the commercial construction market, where the S.T.E.P. system has already proven very popular among building owners, architects and contractors. The accel-E S.T.E.P. wall system is manufactured by fusing cold-formed steel framing components and expandable polystyrene (EPS) insulating panels together into a single continuous system. In the new panel, the steel framing members are upgraded to heavy 16-gauge steel.
