Rainscreen façade support system typically suited for steel-frame systems (SFS) and landscape-orientated panels.
eClips HL can be used for steel frame systems (SFS), where there is likely to be more tolerance in setting out the sub-frame. It is more suited to landscape panels but can also be used for portrait panels.
The eClips rainscreen support system provides the perfect foundation for rainscreen façades, and makes buildings more thermally efficient. By increasing the distance between brackets and combining patented insulation-fix technology with removable helping-hand clips, we reduce the number of penetrations in the structure, ensure the tightness of insulation sheets and keep air leakage to a minimum.
System flexibility
The eClips rainscreen support system allows a range of products to be fixed to the building envelope, and opens up endless creative possibilities for architects and contractors.
Thermally efficient stainless-steel brackets:
Positioning fewer, higher thermal specification and better load-bearing brackets at significantly larger centres reduces overall costs and cuts installation time, as well as reducing the thermal conductivity of the sub-frame.
Sustainable helping-hand clip:
The design of the brackets allows the smallest possible footprint when installing the insulation thanks to the sustainable helping-hand clip, allowing fitters to ensure there are no air pockets (critical for thermal efficiency and fire protection).
Patented insulation-fix technology:
eClips insulation clips improve U-values and weather-sealing performance by reducing the number of penetrations into the fixing grounds – vertical insulation clips connect to the mullion and horizontal clips connect to the C-rail transom to securely hold the insulation.
