Liberty Warehouse

Liberty Warehouse will be Durham’s next iconic building and an anchor of the Central Park neighborhood. It was built in the 1940’s and is the last of the large tobacco auction warehouses. This unique re-development will include 246 luxury rental apartments and 24,693 square-feet of retail space - across from the very popular Durham’s Farmer’s Market. Rmax was involved in pre-construction meetings to assist with the installation of ECOMAXci™ Wall Solution. With the help of our in-house Research and Building Science Engineer and field team, we provided guidance on the design of specialty window waterproofing using our Rmax R-SEAL 6000 flashing.

With reinforced aluminum foil facers, ECOMAXci™ offers enhanced durability, dimensional stability and greater radiant heat protection. ECOMAXci™ Wall Solution provides a ready-made answer to fire, air and water, in addition to thermally efficient continuous insulation. With apartments above, ECOMAXci™ Wall Solution was used to meet the continuous insulation requirements below because it is NFPA 285 approved and a continuous air, water and vapor barrier. This Wall Solution provides continuous insulation eliminating thermal bridging through the steel studs.
