Framing Systems

We supply a range of rainscreen support systems and fixings used to assist the rainscreen cladding system on a facade.

A rainscreen system is comprised of four parts; the outer decorative facade, the ventilated cavity, the inner leaf and the vertical support frame connecting outer to inner. The rainscreen works by deflecting rain and moisture away from the facade, equalising the pressure in the air cavity by repelling moisture from entering the gaps in the facade and draining any penetrating moisture out through the base of the cavity. At the same time, air movement within the cavity evaporates moisture that is drawn out through the building/facade penetration.

Our framing systems are provided by a range of different suppliers. These systems are able to integrate with almost any type of external façade material, including both secret and concealed fix.

The structural requirements of these systems can be calculated to ensure the integrity of the installation. Alongside this, our partners can also provide estimated quantities and costs allowing you to make an informed decision.
