Terracotta Ventilated Facade Cladding Systems Easy Construction And Installation

Cladding is the application of one material over another to provide a skin or layer. In construction, cladding is used to provide a degree of thermal insulation and weather resistance, and to improve the appearance of buildings. Cladding can be made of any of a wide range of materials including wood, metal, brick, vinyl, and composite materials that can include aluminium, wood, blends of cement and recycled polystyrene, wheat/rice straw fibers.

Rainscreen cladding is a form of weather cladding designed to protect against the elements, but also offers thermal insulation. The cladding does not itself need to be waterproof, merely a control element: it may serve only to direct water or wind safely away in order to control run-off and prevent its infiltration into the building structure. Cladding may also be a control element for noise, either entering or escaping. Cladding can become a fire risk by design or material.

A ventilated facade system is an articulated system requiring knowledge of the characteristics of the each single functional layer it comprises, analysing aspects and requirements of:

• Covering or external facing;
• Anchoring structure;
• Air gap;
• Insulating layer;
• Perimeter or curtain wall;
• Anchoring elements;

VENTILATED FACADE BENEFITS

• The choice of the constructive solution of ventilated facade optimizes and reduce energy consumption by eliminating most thermal bridges, reaching, in specific situations, energy savings over 30%.
• Extruded panels offer a high mechanical resistance due to their thickness and honeycomb structure as well as the lack of any mechanization, incisions or any other manipulations. No contribution of fire is one important feature.
• Due the organic origin of clay, our products have a low environmental impact throughout their hole cycle of life. From manufacturing to final installation no toxic waste or products results to be.
• Normal use and regular maintenance of panels increases durability of the building since our system avoid humidity condensations in the interior extending the life of the building.
• Absence of acoustic bridges results in a reduction of interiors noise transmission improving the insulation. Moreover, the higher absorption generated by the air chamber helps reducing the time of reverberation and improving acoustic conditions.
