Quick answers to common queries
There are two main reasons for adding cladding to the building’s envelope. The first reason is to protect the building from weather conditions or to insulate it. The second reason concerns the aesthetic enhancement and improvement of the building's appearance.
Aluminium cladding is one of the most popular choices for decorating industrial and commercial buildings, modern office facilities, and contemporary homes. Thanks to its large and lightweight panels, aluminium allows the cladding of entire buildings while facilitating installation. Additionally, it is a particularly durable material that withstands corrosion and adverse weather conditions.
In general terms, external shading is more effective because it prevents a large part of the solar radiation from passing through the glass and entering the building, contributing to maintaining ideal living conditions throughout the year.
The main benefit of an external shading system is the reduction in heating and cooling requirements, as it prevents solar radiation from entering the building's interior. This significantly reduces operational expenses and enhances the building's energy efficiency.
In the case of stick curtain wall systems, profiles are assembled on-site, whereas unitised curtain walls consist of large pre-assembled units, significantly reducing installation time.
