FACADE CLADDING: Indispensable for Buildings

Facade Cladding is one of the most important elements of buildings.

It is made to protect the insulation. And to create a shield against the external factors of the building.

There are many types of facade cladding materials. The material must be selected according to the needs of the building.

Some buildings are completed by applying decorative plaster and exterior paint on insulation, without preferring facade cladding systems.

Commonly, grc, or gfrc and uhpc are used as the last layer of facade cladding. But also, ceramic or fiber cement may be used.

Facade cladding material should be selected according to the classification of the weather conditions. It is defined as where the building is located.

More flexible materials should be chosen in regions where temperature differences are high. It can be measured due to temperature differences between night and day.

Or materials that are resistant to thermal regression should be selected.

The Importance of Precast GFRC Material in Facade Cladding

The most important reason why precast grfc (glass fiber reinforced concrete) material is preferred in cladding works is that it is a flexible material and can be used safely in buildings.

In addition, it is one of the long-lasting materials used on the facade. Only 1mm surface losses in 60 years. You can click on our product link for more detailed information.

As well as the importance of the preferred material in facade cladding, the connection types and connection materials to the main carrier structure are also important.

If the building is near by sea, fasteners and construction materials have to be choosen regardingly. For example, aluminum or stainless steel materials should be preferred instead of galvanized fasteners.

Fiberton A.Ş. offers innovative solutions in traditional gfrc / grc materials. Also ready for help on the product with support and stands out as a facade coating material against corrosion.

Fiberton A.Ş., which produces high-strength concrete materials such as uhpc (ultra-high performance concrete) apart from gfrc / grc materials, can also make light facade cladding very durable.

Insulated facade

Insulation is also applied in many cladding materials. GFRC / GRC production is carried out at Fiberton A.Ş.’s facilities in Mersin. After thermal lambda value defined, the type of insulation may be choosen. Insulation plates can be placed between the carcass and the precast element, by expert teams. In general, these materials are called panels.
