A fully drained and back ventilated open jointed rainscreen cladding system, mechanically face fixed to a sub frame using low profile fixings or rivets.
Application
Mechanically face fixed to the sub structure in both horizontal and vertical applications. Equally suitable for low cost refurbishment works and new builds.
Description
Vantage® MF is available in a wide range of panel sizes and finishes, and is lightweight and easy to install. It is mechanically fixed, eliminating the need for adhesives, and panels can be independently replaced. The panels have the advantage of being able to be formed to give a clean, sharp detail at all joints, corners and reveals, and can be installed in landscape, portrait or angled orientations. The system recently underwent CWCT Standard For Systemised Building Envelope testing, passing all elements. It was assessed for wind (serviceability & safety), impact resistance (soft and hard body) and water tightness (dynamic aero engine).
Features and benefits:
- Comprehensive choice of Vantage® MF standard details.
- 10 mm all-round joint gap ensures an eye-catching, quality finish.
- Fully tested fixing options include both rivet and screw fix up to a maximum of 600 mm centres.
- Available in a wide range of materials and finishes.
Components:
- Hands free brackets.
- Vantage® MF support rails.
