A real-world comparison that reveals a really big difference. Same exact house. Same crew. And some pretty incredible results. In a real-life house-to-house trial comparing bare metal to paper faced metal corner bead, USG Beadex® paper faced metal corner bead installed 38% faster than traditional metal bead. Great Plains Drywall in Rockford, Illinois, installed traditional bare metal bead in one half of a 4,800-square-foot, four-unit residential building and USG paper faced metal bead in the other half. When the work was done, bare metal bead was left without a corner to stand in. The trial revealed that the half of the house with paper faced metal bead required less joint compound, and the crew increased their productivity, which saved a significant amount in labor costs. Plus, because USG Beadex paper faced metal bead doesn't require nails or screws, there is no risk of corner cracks. That means Great Plains Drywall not only saved time, but they also saved dollars on both installation and callbacks. *Visit usg.com/crackfreecorners for more information and warranty details.
