“ADEX judges are among the A&D industry's most respected in their respective areas of expertise. The ADEX Award represents the best product and project designs of the year in the opinion of those who matter the most. 

Each category has potential for three award levels of platinum, gold or silver. Judges award points in several categories for each entry. Total points earned determine each product's score. Minimum scores are needed to qualify for each award level. Winners are announced each April in Design Publications. 

The ADEX Awards is clearly the largest and most prestigious awards program in the design industry and this year promises to be the biggest and best ever - by far” (1).   

In terms of building envelope, a rainscreen is the first layer of ventilation material on the wall, the siding itself; it can be an entire system of siding, drainage plane, and moisture/air barrier. Keene’s Driwall Rainscreen products are available in various sizes to fit the needs of your exterior wall systems. The structured strand product eliminates incidental moisture problems in most exterior veneer applications, including stucco, manufactured stone, and plank siding.   

Keene’s Driwall Rainscreen drains excess moisture and ventilation in one product, the polymer core is resistant to most known corrosive chemicals, including solvents, and the rolls are wide with fewer seams. Plus, the core of Driwall Rainscreen absorbs and releases no moisture and prevents mold, mildew, or bacteria.
