Rainscreen Cladding
Our rainscreen cladding systems combine A1/A2 fire-rated aluminium and fibre cement panels with subframe solutions, ensuring compliance with UK building regulations. Designed for high-rise and commercial projects, these systems offer durability, low maintenance, and thermal efficiency. Backed by ISO certifications and third-party testing, we provide technical support and installation audits to guarantee performance.
Aluminium Cladding
Valcans VitraDual and SolidSafe aluminium cladding panels feature PVDF coatings and non-combustible A1 ratings, ideal for modern faades. Available in custom colours and finishes, they resist corrosion and weathering. We offer fabrication guidance and compatibility with VitraFix subframe systems, ensuring seamless integration and long-term structural integrity.

Ceramapanel and Evverlap fibre cement solutions provide natural aesthetics with A1/A2 fire ratings. These lightweight, recyclable panels reduce embodied carbon and require minimal upkeep. We supply technical data, BIM files, and CPD seminars to support specification and compliance with environmental standards.

Compatible with all Valcan Architectural panel types, these frameworks are tested to CWCT standards and include centralising tools for precise rivet placement.
