Rainscreen & Composite Cladding Systems

Rainscreen, profiled and insulated composite cladding systems that make a building weathertight, better insulated and sharper to look at.

The external wall is doing two jobs at once: keeping weather out and telling everyone what kind of business is inside. Modern cladding systems do both; they make a building weathertight and well insulated, and they transform how it looks.

Rainscreen cladding

A rainscreen system uses an outer skin held off the structure on a supporting frame, with a ventilated cavity behind it. Rain is shed at the outer face while the cavity manages any moisture that gets past it, keeping the insulation and inner structure dry. It is a robust, long-life approach that also gives a clean, contemporary finish.

Profiled and composite systems

For many industrial and commercial buildings, profiled metal sheeting or insulated composite (sandwich) panels are the right answer: fast to install, well insulated and durable. Composite panels combine the outer sheet, insulation and inner liner in one unit, which speeds up installation and improves thermal performance in a single step.

Compliance and specification

Cladding specification has moved on, particularly around fire performance and energy standards. We help you specify a system that is appropriate for the building and meets current requirements, and we install it to the manufacturer’s details so the system performs and the warranty holds.

Insulation and condensation control

A cladding system does more than keep rain out; it controls heat loss and manages condensation within the wall build-up. Older single-skin sheeting offers almost no insulation and is prone to cold bridging and interstitial condensation, which shows up as damp and corrosion inside the structure. A properly specified modern system (with the insulation, vapour control and ventilation layers in the right order) keeps the structure warm and dry and cuts the energy needed to heat the building.

Recladding occupied buildings

Most of our cladding work is on buildings that stay in use. We plan recladding in phases, protect what’s inside, and keep the site safe and tidy, because on a recladding job the work is on show as much as the result. It often pairs naturally with roof overcladding or refurbishment as part of a full envelope upgrade.
