| Ingenious new façade system  The new bi-directional Kalzip FC Façade System is stylish, non-penetrative and extremely costeffective. Installed on vertically fixed modular click rails, each lightweight panel is simply hooked at the top and then clicked into place at the bottom - quick, easy and ingenious. Kalzip FC Façade's innovative bi-directional installation capability (top down / bottom up) allows flexible project scheduling where on-site requirements such as scaffolding or subsequent construction work can be coordinated independently of the fixing process. No rivets or screws are used - and in the event of future damage or desire to change the façade's appearance, the system allows individual panels to be replaced quickly and easily without affecting adjacent components which negates the costly task of renewing the entire façade. Suitable for all common substructures, the rear-ventilated Kalzip FC Façade System is ideal for external, internal, new build and refurbishment applications. Supplied with edge folding as standard, panels are available in 6 cover widths ranging from 250mm - 500mm and in lengths of up to 10 metres. Adjustable aluminium back-fixing accessories enable the Kalzip FC Façade to be aligned solely via the substructure. Complementary mono-click brackets are available for use with the modular click rails to cater for special details providing architects with tremendous creative design scope and flexibility. Vertical joints are neatly achieved with pilaster and corner flashings whilst fully integrated corner panels add subtle harmony and enhance the overall aesthetics of the façade. Kalzip FC Façade panels are available with a number of different surfaces including stucco embossed aluminium, AluPlusZinc and AluPlusPatina - special micro-ribbed or perforated panels can be supplied on request. The smooth surfaced panels are also available in the wide range of RAL standard colour options. write your comments about the article :: © 2009 Construction News :: home page |
