The Philosophy of Rainscreen |
| In order
for water to penetrate a wall, three components must be
present |
| • |
Water |
| • |
Opening |
| • |
A force or pressure
differential |
|
| The Rain
Screen Principle is based on fundamental laws of physics |
| • |
Resists water penetration
not by sealing joints, but by eliminating pressure differentials
> Pressure equalization |
| • |
Back ventilation |
| • |
Heat-insulation fitted
on the outside of the building |
| |
Eliminate
the force, not the opening |
|
|
Why using Rainscreen Façades? |
| Splitting
up the different layers of the wall structure offers the
following advantages: |
| • |
Remarkable reduced heat
losses. |
| • |
Reliable protection
from heat due to separation of façade. and supporting
wall. |
| • |
Moving point of dew
from supporting wall into the ventilated insulation
|
| • |
Effective weather protection
and drainage of moister. |
| • |
Easy planning and assembly. |
| • |
Moving point of dew
from supporting wall into the ventilated insulation
|
|
|
Technology of ventilated Façade |
 |
|
| • |
Separation of
rainscreen, insulation and load-bearing wall |
| • |
Moisture and water
control due to natural diffusion |
| • |
Defined gap between
façade and thermal insulation ensures constant
airflow |
| • |
Flexible joints
help to equalize pressure of wind or other forces |
| |
|
 |

|
Why using Clay Façades? |
| Based on
the excellent material properties of clay the façade
comes with additional advantages of a natural material: |
| • |
High resistance against
aggressive environmental effects of any nature. |
| • |
Uniform but natural
weathering. |
| • |
Long life and high cost-effectiveness. |
| • |
Usability for new buildings
and refurbishment. |
| • |
Resistant to frost,
UV and salt-water. Non-fading colors. |
| • |
Fully recyclable. |
