Appearance
The rigidity of the elZinc® honeycomb material allows for very large panel sizes to be installed, either horizontally or vertically. At present, finished panels of 936mm x 8000mm are possible, but the maximum width will soon increase to around 1220mm. This makes for a very bold statement across the façade, with a minimum number of joints. The perfect flatness of the panels contributes to a sensation of solidity and robustness.
Joints
The 20mm reveal joints can be left open or alternatively can be closed from the inside if desired. The outside elZinc® skin wraps around the edges and laps back onto the inside skin, where the two sheets are riveted together, producing a fail-safe fixing method of the panels to the supporting structure.
Installation
The panels are installed on a bespoke point fixing system, specially designed to make the most of the extreme rigidity of the panel, eliminating the need for metal rails and reducing costs as a consequence. The fixing system is fully adjustable in three directions, facilitating perfect alignment of the panels. Its design also compensates for the thermal expansion and contraction of the panels. The system also allows for panel replacement without having to disturb adjoining panels, including corners.
