Rainscreen
cladding specialists Metalline are the first to use an innovative stone
textured finish on their range of CWCT certified rainscreen cladding panels.
The
finish, which to the naked eye looks like stone is a perfect substitute for
natural stone cladding panels and offers a range of cost saving benefits.
The use of
aluminum also offers the architect more design options.
Metalline,
who have worked closely with contractors Alumet on a number of capital projects
in London presented their new finish to the design team and outlined the huge
cost savings that could be achieved by specifying their aluminium rainscreen panel with the new stone textured PPC applied.
The
external façade when completed will feature over 3000 number panels, both flat
and curved in stone white and include fittings and bracketry for a unitized
system. This ability to mirror a natural finish on aluminium rainscreen panels
has led to a number of interesting approaches from developers looking to
enhance the external envelope of their project.
Metalline’s
expertise in fascia finishes extends beyond Polyester Powder Coating
applications.
Taking
advantage of the latest research and development into anodised finishes has
seen Metalline engaged by a number of leading architects and contractors to
advise and supply fabricated aluminium with an anodised finish whose colour is
guaranteed for the life cycle of a building.
Available
in a full range of Anolok finishes, specifiers are now able to enhance the
aesthetic look and feel of a building's façade in a choice of colours including
Natural Silver, Bronzes from light to dark, Regency Gold 1 & 2, Black and
specialist Anolok II Blue-Grey and Stone-Grey finishes.
The
Metalline range of Unity rainscreen panels and Ultima insulated panels are made
from solid aluminium and use an A1 rated non - combustible insulation core on
their insulated panels to help meet the latest requirements in fire safety.
