In today’s construction landscape, building smarter often includes building sustainably. At Marino\WARE, we understand that time, labor and materials are critical to your project’s success, and we believe that efficiency should go hand-in-hand with environmental responsibility. That’s why we’re not just committed to helping you streamline every step of the build process; we’re dedicated to empowering you to construct projects that are both high-performing and environmentally sound. Our innovative products are designed to help you save time, reduce labor demands, and minimize material waste, all while supporting your green building goals.
Our Commitment to Sustainability
At Marino\WARE, our dedication to sustainable building practices is at the core of what we do. We understand that choosing the right materials is crucial for both project performance and environmental impact. We’re proud to now offer a Low-Embodied Carbon Steel Environmental Product Declaration (EPD), making us one of few manufacturers to provide two Product Specific Type III EPDs: one for all steel regardless of production method, and one that specifically highlights low-carbon Electric Arc Furnace (EAF) steel.
To give you even more confidence in your material choices, we’ve completed an EPD Optimization Assessment and have a third-party verified Health Product Declaration (HPD). With Marino\WARE, you don’t have to choose between exceptional performance, efficiency and environmental responsibility—you get all three. Our products are engineered to support your green building initiatives, helping you achieve certifications and build a more sustainable future.
Why Efficiency Matters: For Your Projects and Our Planet
We understand the challenges you face on the job site—tight deadlines, a shrinking labor pool and rising material costs. Simultaneously, the imperative for sustainable construction grows stronger every day. That’s why we’re focused on delivering solutions that make your work more efficient and more environmentally conscious without compromising on quality. Our products are engineered to simplify installation, reduce rework and help you stay ahead in a competitive and increasingly green-focused industry.
From advanced framing systems to soundproofing and subfloor innovations, our product lineup is built to meet your needs for both efficiency and sustainability. Let’s take a closer look at how we can support your success.
StudRite® and JoistRite®: Smart Framing for Faster, Smarter Builds
We understand the importance of productivity and enhanced jobsite safety, which is why our StudRite® open web C-studs and JoistRite® open web joists were designed to be lighter and easier to handle than traditional studs and joists. Also engineered with superior performance in mind, they stand out with one of the best strength-to-mass ratios in the industry.
Their innovative design features unique lip-reinforced continuous triangular knockouts which directly address efficiency for mechanical, electrical, and plumbing trades. This intelligent feature reduces modifications, saving time and reducing errors or material damage. Beyond their smart design, StudRite and JoistRite also provide impressive sound ratings and dependable fire-rated performance. StudRite and JoistRite are an excellent choice for projects where efficiency and performance are paramount.
Sure-Board: Increase Efficiency and Performance
Our Sure-Board® Floor (Series 200 SG) non-combustible floor sheathing panels offer a significant advancement for structural subfloor assemblies, combining strength, fire resistance, and acoustic performance in a single product.
These innovative 4′ x 4′ panels feature a structural 3/4″ substrate laminated to 33 mil steel, providing high load values and tested sound transmission. They streamline installation by eliminating the need to work over uneven corrugated decks or endure delays from pouring and finishing concrete levels, common with deep pan deck systems. No new installation techniques are required, and the panels can be easily laid by a single installer. Additionally, Sure-Board 200SG’s integrated steel tab eliminates additional blocking, reducing labor, material costs, and accelerating the construction process.
Designed to meet the increasing demands of residential and mid-rise load-bearing projects, Sure-Board Floor provides a time-saving and safety-conscious solution.
SoundGuard®: Maximize Space and Minimize Sound Transfer
Soundproofing doesn’t have to slow you down. Our SoundGuard® Silent Framing System is a patented interior non-load bearing framing system specifically designed to easily construct partition walls with the high sound transmission class (STC) ratings your projects require, with a much simpler installation process.
SoundGuard replaces typical partition and chase wall assemblies with equal or lesser wall thickness, saving valuable square footage. Additionally, SoundGuard studs are pre-assembled with a built-in air-space, and fit seamlessly with standard framing systems, allowing for a faster build-out so you can deliver great results faster.
With SoundGuard, you can confidently maximize space and reduce labor costs without compromising on sound performance.
QuickFrame: Streamline Your Timeline
We understand that your time on the jobsite is critical, which is why we developed QuickFrame® to revolutionize how you approach framing rough openings.
Designed to be incredibly efficient, QuickFrame significantly reduces the number of components you need. With a single QuickFrame member, you can replace complex built-up headers and jambs, cutting your labor assembly time by up to 50%. Our one-piece QuickFrame clip simplifies connections with predrilled holes and slotted features, ensuring fast and accurate alignment with minimal effort. Plus, because QuickFrame is pre-cut, you minimize on-site measuring and cutting, boosting your efficiency.
We’re confident QuickFrame will save you valuable time, labor, and ultimately, money on your projects.
Firestopping: Fast, Reliable Firestop for Building Joints
At Marino\WARE, we take life safety seriously. That’s why we’re proud to offer a comprehensive portfolio of firestopping, smoke, and sound solutions for building joints. These products are engineered not just to prevent the spread of fire, smoke, and toxic fumes, but also to deliver excellent sound control and enable remarkably fast installation. With no cure time, minimal clean-up and immediate inspection, these joint firestopping solutions are truly the ideal choice for busy contractors like you.
