    Late last year, USG employees helped naming a new Levelrock® product. Out of over 400 names submitted across USG’s network, Jerry Wonderlich, Quality Manager – Kansas City, was selected as the winner for the newly named “USG Levelrock® Brand 2500 LFD.” This new product is the first of its kind in lightweight solutions, weighing 18% lighter than traditional gypsum underlayments and drying up to 40% faster than previous USG Levelrock® gypsum underlayments. Each of these qualities lead to the inspiration behind Jerry’s submission, “USG Levelrock® Brand LFD,” which stands for Lightweight, Fast-Drying. Thank you, Jerry, for your contribution to one of our most trusted brands, and congratulations on 40 years of dedicated service with USG! #ProudToBeUSG #USGBuildIt #Levelrock *USG Levelrock® Brand 2500 LFD is scheduled to launch regionally in Q4 of this year.

    The proof is in the product 💪 With a compressive strength of 1800 PSI, Securock® Brand Gypsum-Fiber Roof Board is the strongest roof board on the market. Its unique, fiber-reinforced composition provides strength and superior wind-uplift performance that keeps the elements out and the inside protected. #USGBuildIt #Securock

    Outstanding work on this project 👏👏👏 thanks to Building Enclosure Solutions, Inc. for the shout-out!

    This project in Northern CA just finished it up and is looking first-rate. It features Carlisle SynTec Systems' Sure-Flex PVC adhered in CAV-GRIP PVC to USG's Securock Gypsum-Fiber cover board.
