Description

A rainscreen cassette system that is available in all finishes of 1 mm-thick VMZINC® and can be installed both vertically and horizontally.

The maximum panel size is 2400 x 600 mm and panels can have a depth of 40, 60, 80 or 100 mm.
Vertical and horizontal joints are 15 mm.
Timber battens can be used to support the panels but metal rails are more commonly used (2 mm aluminium or 1.5 mm galvanized steel).
Centre to centre spacing of the rails is typically 600 mm but can vary depending on the loading requirements of the facade in question.

Features and benefits:

Wide range of panel sizes and depths.
Concealed fastening.
All finishes available.
Bespoke perforation possible.

Typical system build-up:

VMZINC Mozaik cassette panels.
Metal framing creating a vented 38 mm airspace.
VMZINC Membrane.
Insulation.
Supporting structure (blockwork or metal framing or other appropriate supporting structure).

Life Cycle Analysis (LCA):

VMZINC undertakes Life Cycle Analysis (LCA) tests on its products and publishes Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs), such as BRE Environmental Profiles, available from their website www.vmzinc.co.uk and www.greenbooklive.com. These provide users with comprehensive, reliable and transparent information on relevant environmental characteristics. The information is also used by VMZINC as the basis for its eco-design approach.

Classification data
System performance	Guidance for specification option: Insert requirements.
System manufacturer	VMZINC UK.
Thermal insulation	Guidance for specification option: Insert requirements (supplied by others).
Breather membrane	-
Material	VMZINC Membrane.
Fasteners	Manufacturer's standard.
Secondary support structure	Metal framing creating a 38 mm airspace. Guidance for specification option: Insert details. Timber battens can be used to support the panels but metal rails are more commonly used (2 mm aluminium or 1.5 mm galvanised steel). Centre to centre spacing of the rails is typically 600 mm but can vary depending on the loading requirements of the facade in question.
Cladding panels	-
Material	Zinc, 40 mm depth. Zinc, 60 mm depth. Zinc, 80 mm depth. Zinc, 100 mm depth. Manufacturer guidance 1 mm-thick zinc panels. Select multiple panel depths and refer to drawing/ schedule as required. The system is typically fixed to aluminium cladding rails with a minimum thickness of 2 mm at maximum 600 mm centres using stainless self-tapping screws with a diameter of 4.8 or 5.5 mm. See also Colour for colour/ finish options and Panel dimensions for size options.
Panel joints	Joint width: 15 mm. Guidance for specification option: Automatically created during installation, no shims required.
Reveals	Guidance for specification option: Consult manufacturer for options and insert requirements.
System accessories	Guidance for specification option: Consult manufacturer for options and insert requirements, or omit.
Colour	Natural VMZINC®, natural finish. Guidance for specification option: Natural VMZINC® has a shiny metallic appearance when new and develops a patina over time. In facade applications, it may take ten years for the matt grey patina to form. Standard PIGMENTO® BLUE. Guidance for specification option: Pre-weathered finish. Colouration of the zinc is achieved with a special pigment layer that enhances the qualities of the zinc without presenting a block colour. Tested to EN 13523. Provides an increased resilience. However in a severe non-rinsed marine environment (1 km from the sea), staining is still possible and therefore the material should not be used in this application. Standard PIGMENTO® GREEN. Guidance for specification option: Pre-weathered finish. Colouration of the zinc is achieved with a special pigment layer that enhances the qualities of the zinc without presenting a block colour. Tested to EN 13523. Provides an increased resilience. However in a severe non-rinsed marine environment (1 km from the sea), staining is still possible and therefore the material should not be used in this application. Standard PIGMENTO® BROWN. Guidance for specification option: Pre-weathered finish. Colouration of the zinc is achieved with a special pigment layer that enhances the qualities of the zinc without presenting a block colour. Tested to EN 13523. Provides an increased resilience. However in a severe non-rinsed marine environment (1 km from the sea), staining is still possible and therefore the material should not be used in this application. Standard PIGMENTO® RED. Guidance for specification option: Pre-weathered finish. Colouration of the zinc is achieved with a special pigment layer that enhances the qualities of the zinc without presenting a block colour. Tested to EN 13523. Provides an increased resilience. However in a severe non-rinsed marine environment (1 km from the sea), staining is still possible and therefore the material should not be used in this application. Standard PIGMENTO® GREY. Guidance for specification option: Pre-weathered finish. Colouration of the zinc is achieved with a special pigment layer that enhances the qualities of the zinc without presenting a block colour. Tested to EN 13523. Provides an increased resilience. However in a severe non-rinsed marine environment (1 km from the sea), staining is still possible and therefore the material should not be used in this application. PIGMENTO® STORM GREY. Guidance for specification option: Pre-weathered finish. Colouration of the zinc is achieved with a special pigment layer that enhances the qualities of the zinc without presenting a block colour. Tested to EN 13523. Provides an increased resilience. However in a severe non-rinsed marine environment (1 km from the sea), staining is still possible and therefore the material should not be used in this application. PIGMENTO® CHARCOAL GREY. Guidance for specification option: Pre-weathered finish. Colouration of the zinc is achieved with a special pigment layer that enhances the qualities of the zinc without presenting a block colour. Tested to EN 13523. Provides an increased resilience. However in a severe non-rinsed marine environment (1 km from the sea), staining is still possible and therefore the material should not be used in this application. QUARTZ-ZINC®. Guidance for specification option: Pre-weathered finish. Offers an appearance and texture that does not change over time. When QUARTZ-ZINC® is scratched, it will self heal. The grey tones of QUARTZ-ZINC® blend well with existing construction materials. QUARTZ-ZINC® is produced through a phosphatation of mill finish Natural zinc. The darkness of the pre-weathered zinc is measured electronically using a Y figure where 0 is black and 100 is white. Acceptable tolerance of QUARTZ-ZINC®, Y = 22 to 25. ANTHRA-ZINC®. Guidance for specification option: Pre-weathered finish. With its visible grain it matches the colour of slate and blends well in combination with photovoltaic panels. Produced through a phosphatation of mill finish Natural zinc. Acceptable tolerance of ANTHRA-ZINC®, Y = 5 to 7. Due to the dark colour of ANTHRA-ZINC® it should be carefully considered before using on non-rinsed surfaces such as protected facades and soffits. For rinsed surfaces in coastal environments ANTHRA-ZINC® STRAT should be considered. AZENGAR®. Guidance for specification option: Pre-weathered finish. Engraved zinc giving a product with a matt, heterogeneous and light aspect. Can be used in the same fashion as other VMZINC® products for both roofs and facades.
Panel dimensions	Guidance for specification option: Insert requirements, maximum 2400 x 600 mm. Consult manufacturer for minimum panels sizes. Manufacturer guidance Refer to drawing/ schedule as required.
Perforations	Not required. Required. Guidance for specification option: Bespoke perforations available; consult manufacturer for details and insert requirements.
Reaction to fire	Fire classification according to EN 13501-1:2002: A1 (Natural VMZINC, QUARTZ-ZINC, ANTHRA-ZINC and AZENGAR); A2-s1,d0 (PIGMENTO and VMZINC PLUS).
Standard	To BS EN 988, EN 15804, ISO 14001 and ISO 9001.
Installation	Horizontal panels are installed bottom up whereas vertical panels can be ordered for installation left to right and right to left. The 15 mm joint is automatically created, thus eliminating the need for shims during installation. The panels are fixed with the self-tapping screws. The protective film should only be removed upon completion of the facade and when no other trades are working nearby. VMZINC® PLUS must be used on all non-vertical flashings if open gap softwood boards are not being used.
