Recladding

A1 Fire classification dependent on system finish selected.

This modern method of construction, also referred to as ETIC’s, has proven extremely popular over recent years and is now the preferred recladding method for mid-to-high rise structures. Our market-leading Cavity Systems consist of Euroclass BS EN 13501 – A1 components, which are mechanically fixed back to the inner sheathing board to create the designed cavity width with either the insulation board fitted directly to the A1 fillets (CS1 system), or a secondary A1 sheathing board and insulation (CS2 system). Our A1 EWI recladding systems are supplied with a mineral top coat finish.

Our render systems EnviroSil, FlexiSil and Enviromin topcoat finishes have a long lifespan but should there be a requirement they can all be easily redecorated at any stage of their lifetime, making them very versatile. This offers the opportunity to change the appearance of the façade easily whilst still maintaining the performance of the system.

All of these finishes are applied onto a basecoat incorporating reinforcement mesh resulting in a robust and impact resistant system. Find out more about our Cavity System 1 here

Cavity systems are extensively used on lightweight framed structures to create a void between the cladding and the sheathed framed structure. Our CS systems 1 & 2 are the next generation of this solution.

These market-leading Cavity Systems consist of Euroclass BS EN 13501 – A1 components, which are mechanically fixed back to the inner sheathing board to create the designed cavity width with either the insulation board fitted directly to the A1 fillets (CS1 system), or a secondary A1 sheathing board and insulation (CS2 system). Our A1 EWI recladding systems are supplied with a mineral top coat finish.

A proprietary base coat render is applied with a reinforcing plastic coated glass fibre mesh prior to the application of the required finishes.

External wall insulation systems are extensively used on lightweight framed structures and direct-fix projects. The speed at which they can be erected and weatherproofed provides significant benefits to the developer. Removing the cladding from the critical path, bringing forward the internal trades and thereby shortening the contract period and eliminating the problems associated with brick and blockwork construction. This method of construction has proven extremely popular over recent years.

The details that follow demonstrate the use of the SPSenvirowall systems on lightweight steel frames although the principle operates equally effectively on timber frame structures.
