At the forefront of industry research and development, leading UK based manufacturer – Alumasc Facade Systems has developed an advanced facade solution, engineered for structural timber applications. ‘Highly Commended’ in the recent Structural Timber Awards – the new Alumasc Ventilated System (AVS) brings to market a robust, BBA Certified cladding solution. Quick to install, and also suited to offsite manufacture, the system improves efficiency and speed of construction whilst also addressing skills shortages.
AVS has been engineered to provide a solution for the requirements and guidelines set out by both the NHBC and TRADA for timber framed construction. Due to the system’s free flowing cavity, it remains both continuously ventilated and drained, whilst maintaining detailing true to traditional build expectations. This ensures the timber substrate sustains its ventilation requirements and prevents any moisture tracking back to its fabric, providing a protected structure.
The quality and choice of final finish approved for use with AVS addresses the aesthetics that architects, designers and housebuilders require.
Alumasc’s durable, yet lightweight acrylic brick slips, can replicate any UK brick in the market – however the system is not just limited to using these as the final facade finish, AVS is also approved for use with high performance silicone renders, available in over 600 colours, along with a more traditional range of dashing renders.
