Application
Suitable for use on a building envelopes exterior facade in high-rise, hospitals, student accommodation and hotel applications.
Description
CGL is a rainscreen cladding system with horizontal or vertical Traypanel cassette type panels discreetly fixed into an extruded aluminium support structure, supported by helping hand brackets attached back to the primary structure. The rainscreen wall design shall include all components such as membranes and insulation that together will ensure compliance with current building regulations.
The system is a drained rear-ventilated rainscreen façade. Air pressure in the cavity behind the panels generally equalises with pressure outside to prevent wind-driven rain from entering the cavity. Any moisture which does enter the cavity, drains down the back of the panels and exits in a controlled fashion at horizontal or vertical joints and the base of the facade.
In order for the rainscreen principle to function, the backing wall from which it is supported must achieve certain standards of air permeability, stipulated in The Building Regulations, and be capable of accommodating transmitted live and dead loads. The backing wall must also achieve specified performance requirements for fire, acoustics, and condensation risk.
The system have been formally tested with certification from a UKAS accredited testing facility, which complies with testing requirements laid out in the CWCT publication, 'Standard for systemised building envelopes - 2005'.
Features and benefits:
- Precision made with maximum 30 mm joints in both directions. Suitable for large and bespoke sizes. Can also be supplied perforated, if required.
- All season installation.
- Easy maintenance.
- Mechanical fixing methods with no use of flammable adhesives.
- Stiffeners/ carriers, if required are stud welded to rear of panel (subject to product design review).
- Ventilated system.
- Designed and tested using fully adjustable Hilti MFT-MFI brackets in conjunction with either vertical or horizontal support rails.
- Fire tested to BS EN 13501-1 certification.
- Centre For Window & Cladding Technology Sequence B Dynamic Tested in accordance with NHBC testing requirements.
With the exception of Cor-Ten Steel, a removable protective film is supplied on all panels and remains in place through the installation processes to inhibit damage. CGL recommend the film be removed on the day of panel installation otherwise there is the risk that adhesive residue/staining will remain on the panels after later removal.

Specification data - Drained and back-ventilated rainscreen cladding systems
Thermal insulation | Manufacturer guidanceAn essential part of the backing wall is the wall insulant. Insulation should never be applied to the Traypanels themselves, but always to or into the backing wall. The insulation should be resistant to moisture and provide adequate fire performance, based on the building construction and end use. Calculations are required to ensure that the overall construction achieves the specified U-value and include the effect of any regular cold-bridging of wall components. |
Breather membrane | |
Material | Manufacturer guidanceThe manufacturer recommends as good practice to apply breather membrane to the cold side of the wall insulant. If properly fitted and joint-sealed, this membrane will stop moisture penetrating the backing wall. Where wall brackets penetrate the insulation layer, particular care should be taken to seal the membrane around these penetrations. Vapour barrier membranes may also require to be fitted on the warm side of the insulant and a condensation risk analysis identifies if a membrane is needed. |
Secondary support structure | Aluminium support structure – A fully adjustable system of support brackets and rail profiles. Material: Extruded aluminium to BS EN 12020-2 in 6063 T6 grade alloy.Manufacturer guidance

Cavity fire barriers | |
Horizontal | Supplied by others.Manufacturer guidanceThe manufacturer recommends in order to inhibit the spread of fire and smoke through the ventilated cavity, it is required to break the cavity with non-flammable closures. These can be made from rock-fibre bats or perforated intumescent sheeting and are usually fitted at floor slab levels, building corners, and around window penetrations. |
Vertical | Supplied by others.Manufacturer guidanceThe manufacturer recommends in order to inhibit the spread of fire and smoke through the ventilated cavity, it is required to break the cavity with non-flammable closures. These can be made from rock-fibre bats or perforated intumescent sheeting and are usually fitted at floor slab levels, building corners, and around window penetrations. |
