100 Clay Terracotta Cladding Exterior Wall Facade Materials With Various Colors And Shapes
Terracotta cladding is a 100% natural material composed of clay, made using fire and water. Terracotta cladding is used to create striking facade designs in combination with other materials like glass, stone surfaces, paint etc. It is an alternate to exposed brick masonry which is widely used for the exteriors of the building. The exposed brick masonry might look very untidy, rough, and rugged with unclean lines. Terracotta cladding can give the look of exposed bricks with a very smooth and flawless finish. These tiles can be glazed or unglazed and are available in various colours.
| Advantages of Terracotta Panel, comparing with Stone and Glass | ||||

| 1 | Material | Natural Clay, 100% green material | granite, marble, sandstone | quartz alkaline colloid |
| 2 | Dry Weight | hollow structure, 30-32kg/m2, 70% weight of the Nature Stone | 2.4-2.7kg/m³ | 2.5kg/m³ |
| 3 | Dry-hanging System | with its own groove for dry-hanging, standard, safe and easy handle. | on-site processing, fragile, security risk | on-site fixing |
| 4 | Color | Never fading, color inherent, stable color for each production. | natural color, but it is greatly affected by mine or location | heavy-metal oxide |
| 5 | Durability | not new in ten years, not old in one hundred years. | easy to be second weathering | easy to be erosion |
| 6 | Acid and alkaline resistance | high | middle | low |
| 7 | Radioactivity | none | with radioactive elements | With radioactive elements for bright color glass |
| 8 | Low-carbon ability | hollow structure ,good heat and sound insulation, light-weight, greatly saving steel, half of stone's heat-conducting, recycling. | low heat and noise insulation, heavy, needing to be reinforced. | high light-transmission, no heat-insulation |
| 9 | environmental protection of the processing | using shale and terracotta, or coal waste, easy for exploration, no need to process too much, little waste | much wasting water, stone material is limited, causing great damage to environment. | limited good silicon |
