Xci® Ply by Hunter Panels

Xci® Ply is a high-performance, energy-efficient rigid insulation panel engineered for commercial wall applications. It features a closed-cell polyisocyanurate (polyiso) foam core laminated between a premium coated glass facer on one side and a ⅝” or ¾” fire-treated plywood on the other.

This dual-surfaced construction provides both exceptional thermal performance and a secure, mechanically attachable substrate. Available in 4′ x 8′ panels with thicknesses ranging from 1.6″ to 4.7″, Xci Ply offers a superior balance of insulating value, dimensional stability, and fire resistance. The product is designed to meet demanding energy codes while simplifying installation and reducing overall wall system complexity.
