-- Phoenix Advanced Materials recently introduced Phoenix Finish, a mineral-based drywall finishing compound that is designed to handle embedding, filling, and finishing in a single application.

The timing of the announcement aligns with significant growth in the construction sector. The Global Alliance for Buildings and Construction shows that global building floor area increased by 5 billion square meters (around 2%) in 2023, pushing total constructed floor area past 260 billion square meters. Phoenix Finish has responded to this market shift by unveiling its next-generation drywall finishing technology engineered to meet the evolving requirements of residential and commercial construction projects across the United States.
The compound's zero-VOC formulation supports healthier interior environments, a critical consideration given that the EPA reports indoor VOC concentrations can be up to ten times higher than outdoor levels, says the team. Phoenix Finish's mineral composition replaces petroleum-derived polymers commonly found in traditional drywall finishing materials, aligning with LEED v4.1 requirements for low-emitting materials.
"For contractors working on projects with strict environmental specifications or green building certifications, Phoenix Finish provides a compliant solution that meets contemporary indoor air quality standards," notes a company representative.
Beyond environmental benefits, Phoenix Finish delivers measurable performance advantages that translate directly to job site efficiency. The compound exhibits less shrinkage compared to traditional compounds, reducing the likelihood of surface defects and callbacks, and is designed to resist mold.
Extended workability allows crews to reuse material and reduce waste from dried-out compound on multi-day jobs, whereas its easier sanding characteristics improve handling and reduce physical strain, streamlining the finishing process and contributing to labor savings.
Phoenix Finish is engineered specifically for Level 4 and Level 5 drywall finishing applications. Level 5 finishes involve an additional skim coat over the entire surface, providing the highest quality necessary for areas with critical lighting or dark, glossy paint finishes.
"By meeting demanding standards with Phoenix Finish, contractors can maintain the finish quality required for contemporary building projects without compromising on performance or adding complexity to their workflows," adds the company spokesperson.
