The SLS Pad is constructed from 8mm thick, low-density fiberglass coated with fluoropolymer. With an R-Value of 0.21 m²K/W, it is specifically engineered to provide a thermal break between cladding and steel framing.

Pad size options

• 50x140mm – for Offset Brackets
• 50x80mm – for Mounting Tracks fixed to substrate

ROCKWOOL Rainscreen Insulation, a stone wool product, is designed specifically for ventilated cladding systems, to reduce the thermal bridging effect through the studs, offering superior thermal performance. It’s non-combustible and moisture repellent ensuring the structure’s breathability and dryness. The panels come in 1200 mm x 600 mm with thicknesses from 25mm to 100mm. See table below.

The degree of corrosiveness is defined by ISO 9223 and effects the fixings used on the project. The categories are classed from C1 to CX, and typically, a cladding system used externally would be classed between C3 to CX.

Our declaration is LBC RED LIST APPROVED.
This is defined as: products disclose a minimum of 99% of ingredients present in the final product and meet the LBC Red List Imperative requirements through one or more approved exceptions.

The Velo rainscreen facade system is designed to have layers of redundancy, with each element of the buildout contributing to weather tightness, water resistance and condensate control in the wall cavity. With the outer aluminium cladding repelling and removing most of the water through drainage, supported by a ventilated cavity for pressure equalisation and drying in combination with a weather resistant membrane provides the ultimate in weather defence. Tested to AS 4284.

Cladding boards are only suitable for vertical orientation – contact us for further options

Boards are available in lengths of up to 6m. 

Our cladding boards are 100% aluminium, with the system designed to accommodate thermal expansion. This expansion occurs over the length of the board, with the following data being calculated as a guide. These examples of thermal expansion are based on cladding boards of 4m and 6m being installed in winter at 0°C and then heated to 50°C in summer.
