Ventilated facades are lightweight external cladding systems designed to protect buildings from weather conditions while enhancing their aesthetic appeal. They are designed to allow natural air circulation between the facade layers, which helps regulate temperature and humidity inside the building. Basic components of a ventilated facade include substructure usually made of steel or aluminum framework, thermal insulation layer, and the external facade cladding. The materials most commonly used in ventilated facade systems include:
- steel or aluminum sheets trapezoidal and corrugated
- decorative metal facades in the form of cassette panel, expanded metal mesh, perforated elements, and others
- ceramic cladding,
- fiber cement panels
- HPL laminate panels
- composite panels
- pressed basalt fiber panels
- natural wood cladding
- GRC panels
The benefits of using ventilated facades for new or existing buildings include improved energy efficiency of the building, reduced condensation and wall moisture, increased durability of the facade, and an aesthetically pleasing appearance of the building.
