Overview

A ventilated rainscreen keeps the weather out and lets the wall behind it breathe. The open cavity carries heat and moisture away, so the building stays cooler and the structure stays dry.

Key features

Designed in detail.

01

Air cavity

A ventilated gap behind the panels reduces heat gain on sun facing walls.

02

Adjustable subframe

Aluminum brackets and rails absorb site tolerances and thermal movement.

03

Open or closed joints

Joint widths and patterns are set to the architect's design.

04

Easy maintenance

Individual panels can be removed and replaced without disturbing the wall.
